What’s the difference between luxury vinyl plank and luxury vinyl tile?


The only real difference between plank (LVP) and tile (LVT) is the format. However, they are both options for you for luxury vinyl flooring. LVP is strips of vinyl mounted on wooden boards to mimic hardwood. LVT are tiles that can be grouted to add to the visuals of the flooring.

Alternatives to genuine tile, stone, and wood


Do you want your bathroom to have a wood look? What about your laundry room and kitchen? All of these rooms can have that with LVP. Do you want your basement to have a stone-look or wood-look to it? What about a cherry wood floor look? You can have that with LVT and LVP.

An excellent value for your dollar


LVF, luxury vinyl flooring is completely 100% waterproof. It is durable and long-lasting. It has low maintenance with light sweeping or light mopping. It can withstand the busiest of households with kids and pets as it is considered one of the friendliest kids and pets flooring around. It may be a hard surface, but it has good traction to stop quickly running children or pets.

Layers


LVP and LVT are five times thicker than original vinyl flooring. They are comprised of multiple layers. This includes a waterproof backing layer to prevent mold and mildew from growing. The core layer is made of PVC vinyl and is also waterproof. Next comes the imaging layer with a 3D image with width and depth. The top layer is a covering of melamine, a strong covering that protects against scratches, scrapes, and nicks.
