The unique manufacturing processes used today can replicate the look and textures of real ceramic tile, stone and wood grains. Vinyl floors are manufactured in both sheet and tile. The vinyl sheet floors are offered in both 6 foot and 12 foot widths and the vinyl tiles come in various sizes and thicknesses. Both types of vinyl floors come in a wide array of patterns and colors.
Vinyl tiles are ideal for the do-it-yourself projects in kitchens and bathrooms. They come in both self-stick tiles (adhesive pre-applied at factory) or dry back tiles for glue-down installation. Vinyl tiles range from 1/16" thick to 1/8" thick. Sheet vinyl can be a little trickier to install for the do-it-yourself person. For information about installing a vinyl floor you should always refer to the manufacturer's written documents. |
The more expensive vinyl floors and tiles have better resistance to staining, scratches, gouges and tearing. Not only is the performance better but so is the the warranty on the high-end vinyl floors. Also, as you go up in quality you will also notice improved styling and more textural realism in these floors.
