Types of vinyl
Luxury vinyl tile
This is a variation that is designed to mimic the look of stone or ceramic tiles. They can be installed using grout to perfectly imitate pricier materials.
Luxury vinyl plank
This variation mimics authentic hardwood without the included price tag and maintenance. You'll enjoy its easy upkeep and versatility.
Sheet vinyl
With sheet vinyl, a single cushioned sheet of vinyl is adhered to the subfloor beneath. It's more budget-friendly than LVT and LVP, but it's not quite as authentic in appearance.

What is "resilient" flooring?
The term “resilient” is often used to refer to vinyl, even by flooring professionals. However, the two terms are not completely synonymous. Resilient is a catch-all term that refers to several types of flooring including vinyl, cork, rubber and linoleum. All of these materials offer some give or bounce, which is what makes them resilient. Typically, these types of floors are durable, flexible, and inexpensive.
Vinyl FAQ's
Have questions about vinyl flooring? Here are some frequently asked questions from our customers!
Can I use a wet mop on my vinyl flooring?
Yes! Most luxury vinyl products are water-resistant, if not waterproof. You can use a wet mop to clean your vinyl floor, but you shouldn't let puddles sit! Standing water could cause damage. Be sure to dry your floors promptly if any puddles occur.
What's the difference between vinyl and linoleum?
Linoleum is a natural product made from linseed oil while vinyl is synthetic. Because of this linoleum is often considered more eco-friendly. Both are available in sheet or tile forms and are considered resilient flooring.
What do LVT or LVP mean?
These acronyms actually refer to the same thing—just in different forms. Both are luxury vinyl products. LVT stands for luxury vinyl tile, made to look and feel like ceramic or stone tile flooring. LVP stands for luxury vinyl plank, made to look and feel like natural hardwood.
Can I install vinyl over my existing floors?
Yes! New vinyl floors can be installed over existing tile, provided that the surface is secure and smooth. You may first need to level the tile with a special compound, however.
