When it comes to flooring, luxury vinyl tile flooring (LVT) has a lot of positive qualities. Even if you think you know the qualities of vinyl, luxury vinyl tile is actually quite different. LVT is made in many styles, which are textured like wood or stone, so you can have the look you want in your Ottawa home, but it will be less costly and require less maintenance.
LVT Construction
Manufacturers of luxury vinyl tile are able to make the flooring look like a different material with photographic technology. The product consists of four layers – vinyl backing, vinyl color layer, photographic film layer and urethane or aluminum oxide on top. This top layer protects the flooring from wear and tear, and the most expensive versions have up to a 40-mil layer. Most commercial flooring has at least a 20-mil protective layer. Anything thinner than that will not stand up to regular or heavy use.
