High end Vinyl – Can you believe it’s vinyl? Westchester Luxury Vinyl
Posted by TheFlooringGirl on Apr 25, 2012 in Vinyl flooring | 4 comments
Vinyl flooring has come a long way, baby!
When you hear the word vinyl, you may be thinking sheet vinyl…or maybe peel & stick tile…or maybe even VCT (vinyl composite tile) – the type you might see in a school or supermarket.
But, the latest trend in vinyl is Luxury vinyl. This is a high end durable vinyl that looks real! Luxury vinyl can be made to look like real hardwood or even tile. The designs use real digital pictures and use registered embossing for the wood grains and tile textures. They are truly amazing in how real they look and feel.
In addition to looking great, luxury vinyl is waterproof, so it’s great for heavy traffic areas and areas with water such as kitchens, bathrooms, basement, entryways. They are also super easy to clean.
With Luxury vinyl, you can also get fun and creative by adding borders and altering the direction of the planks. The pieces are all individual, include vinyl grout lines that are lower than the vinyl tiles for a more realistic effect.
They come in a variety of colors and styles -from traditional to distressed woods, as well as slate and natural stone looks. Take a look at these pictures and see how real it looks!

It is amazing the varieties if beautiful vinyl that are out there now. My only concern is chemical emissions??
David – It is amazing. Regarding your potential concern, you’re better off asking a vinyl company about whether or not that is a valid concern.
We have sheet vinyl in the kitchen, Aq 1994 manufactured home, with a visible hump between the sink and the breakfast bar, you can see it when you look from the side,but you do not feel it when walking across.Can we do the vinylplancks there, how much of a difference in the flatness do you think they can handle! thank you!
Claudia – Most likely, yes, you could. The key to doing vinyl is the floor prep. The floor prep can help smooth things out. The more floor prep/smoothing you do, the more you can even things out. This then becomes a matter of cost and preference.
I hope that helps.
