LUXURY VINYL TILE SERVICES IN HOOVER, ALABAMAOne of the latest and most popular trends in flooring today is luxury vinyl tile (LVT). If you haven't heard about it, you're probably picturing the old vinyl flooring from the 70's and wondering to yourself why in the world is that popular again? Luckily, LVT is nothing like the old vinyl flooring- it is constructed differently, looks completely different, and can be applied differently. Created by state of the art manufacturing processes, luxury vinyl flooring has the look, graining, and characteristics of real hardwoods. It is also created to resemble various other flooring materials such as stone and ceramic tiles.

BENEFITS OF LUXURY VINYL FLOORING
The construction of LVT flooring incorporates advanced photography techniques to create durable vinyl tiles that look and feel like real materials. There are four layers fused together: a vinyl backing, vinyl color layer, photographic film layer, and a urethane top layer. The top layer is extremely important, makes the material very durable, and comes in different levels of protection. Here is a list of the major benefits and features of luxury vinyl tile flooring:
- Realistic replication of the best natural flooring materials at a much lower price
- Simple maintenance required- the recommended cleaning method is damp mopping
- Huge selection of sizes, shapes, and textures are available
- Water resistant
- Extremely durable: scratch, dent, scuff, and stain resistant
- Excellent choice for commercial flooring to stand up to heavy wear and tear
- Depending on manufacturer, warranties of 20-25 years
- Multiple layers make LVT easier to stand on for long periods of time
- Beautiful and aesthetically pleasing
