One of the biggest advantage of luxury vinyl tile (LVT) floors is its visual appeal. It realistically mimics the appearance of natural materials such as wood or stone with embossed or textured surfaces, making it look very close to the real thing. It offers a wide selection of patterns and styles and is less expensive than the natural version. LVT is also softer and can also tolerate conditions that these natural materials can’t. LVT is typically thicker than traditional vinyl flooring materials due to an added layer of heavy film covered with a UV-cured urethane that makes it scuff, stain, and scratch resistant, improving its wear and performance. This added thickness adds the advantages of sound absorption, heat insulation, and comfort underfoot. Another major advantage of LVT is its resistance to water damage, making it a great option for an area where you may have spills like kitchens and bathrooms.  Blue Mountain Flooring in Hendersonville has access to the top lines in LVT.  Stop by our showroom to talk with one of our flooring consultants.
