Vinyl Flooring
About Vinyl Flooring
Vinyl flooring has become a very popular option for both residential, commercial and industrial spaces due to its durability and affordability. Vinyl is a synthetic material that like laminate, mimics the look of natural materials including wood and stone. Standard vinyl flooring is made from multiple layers of material that contribute to its water-resistant properties and level of durability. Vinyl flooring can sometimes get a bad rap for being cheap and inconsistent. We exclusively utilize high-quality brands and names that have shown the test of time. At Premiere Flooring, we offer only the best vinyl flooring services.
Types of Vinyl Flooring
Vinyl Tile
Luxury vinyl tile is a high-quality vinyl flooring product that mimics the look of stone, ceramic or marble. We have various colors and styles available that come in both tile and plank form and are known for their realistic appearances. Our team sometimes can install vinyl tiles with grout, the way traditional tile or stone is installed, to closer resemble the look of the natural material. Vinyl tiles can be a good option for smaller spaces, as they tend to be easier to cut and install than traditional stone tiles.
Vinyl Planks
Luxury vinyl planks are designed to look like hardwood floors. They offer the warmth and aesthetic appeal of wood, with the additional benefit of being water-resistant and more durable. Vinyl planks offer extra protection against wear-and-tear when compared to its hardwood floor counterpart.
Sheet Vinyl
Sheet vinyl comes in large rolls and is a very cost-effective flooring method for larger spaces. This can include basements, office spaces, hallways, warehouses, or stores. Our sheet vinyl comes in a variety of patterns and styles and can be installed quickly and efficiently.
Luxury Vinyl
Our luxury vinyl planks and tiles are thicker than traditional vinyl with additional layers in the structure, making them slightly more durable and level of realism to more closely resemble the material you are going for. Luxury vinyl flooring can have a lifespan of up to 20 years or longer.
Features of Vinyl Flooring
Water Resistance
Vinyl material is inherently water-resistant, making it an excellent choice for areas that may be prone to water damage including bathrooms, kitchens, basements or larger commercial kitchens. We have several options that are exclusively waterproof, adding an extra layer of protection against water damage.
Durability
Vinyl flooring is known for being extremely durable, making it a great option if your home has a lot of foot traffic or for your business. Vinyl is highly resistant to scratches, dents and stains. The outer layer of vinyl known as the wear layer plays a very important role in protecting your surface from wear and tear and other larger issues like scratches from furniture or heavy shoes.
Low Maintenance
Vinyl flooring is very easy to maintain and requires little maintenance. Routine sweeping and occasional mopping is usually enough to keep it cleaned and well-maintained. As vinyl is naturally water-resistant, this makes cleaning spills easier. There is no routine refinishing or sealing of the floor required.
Affordability
Vinyl flooring is often a more affordable option than natural materials like stone or hardwood. Vinyl allows a similar appearance to these materials while offering additional protection and durability, while remaining more cost-effective.
How much does vinyl flooring cost?
Vinyl is known for being one of the more affordable flooring options. Vinyl flooring can cost between $2 and $3 per square foot, and luxury vinyl can cost up to $5 per square foot. The cost of installing vinyl plank or tiles tends to be slightly more expensive than sheet vinyl, just due to the nature of the installation process.
