Why choose vinyl flooring?

There’s a whole host of reasons why vinyl flooring would make a great addition to your home.

Here are some of the benefits for choosing vinyl flooring: 

• Practical, durable and low maintenance – perfect for high traffic areas and busy homes
• Extremely easy to clean 
• Excellent value for money 
• Water resistant – an ideal choice for bathrooms, kitchens and utility areas
• Resistant to scuffs and blemishes
• Available in a huge range of colours and designs to suit many interior styles
• Can be used with underfloor heating for an extra touch of luxury
• Comfortable to walk on

Making your selection

The versatility of vinyl and its many finishes means you can achieve a seamless look in any room.

However, I don’t recommend using it on stairs as it’s not as suitable as other flooring types.

There are a few things you need to consider to help you choose the best option for you and your home.

Here are a few key factors to think about when shopping for your vinyl flooring:

• Where will your flooring be laid? Vinyl is generally durable enough for any room in the home (apart from stairs), though some areas may have more foot traffic than others. In this case, you may want to look for a thicker option, which will offer extra cushioning
• Wear guarantee – many of our ranges come with wear and stain guarantees for added peace of mind. Our ranges offer guarantees up to xx years
• What sort of look are you hoping to achieve? Our vinyl ranges come in a huge variety of designs, to help you achieve the look you want in your home. Do you want a traditional wooden effect, the modern look of tiles or an eye-catching pattern? Think about the style you want to go for and whether it will go with your existing décor and how it will complement your room of choice
• What is your budget? Offering incredible value for money, vinyl is a very budget-friendly flooring option. Our sheet vinyl flooring ranges are available both in store and online, and come in a range of finishes, to suit all budgets. Some ranges also have textured finishes for the look and feel of real wood or stone, without the hefty price tag
