What is LVT flooring?
LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tile) is a vinyl floor covering made from numerous layers, topped with a realistic design and finally a protective coating. Different manufacturers have slightly different structures and layers, but the end result always looks the same. The floor is designed to replicate the appearance of either wood flooring or stone tiles. Some are really authentic looking and there are hundreds of different styles to choose from. The realistic designs give you the opportunity to transform your home without the drawbacks that can sometimes come alongside a natural floor covering.
