Installation Notes
We install LVT/LVP using both glue-down and click-lock methods depending on the product and your home's conditions. Installation starts with assessing your subfloor — we handle any leveling or moisture mitigation needed. Furniture is moved room by room, and we work efficiently to get each space back in use quickly. Most rooms are completed in a single day. We protect finished areas and clean up at the end of each workday.
Maintenance Basics
LVT/LVP is one of the easiest flooring types to maintain. Regular sweeping or vacuuming keeps dirt from scratching the surface. Damp mopping with a manufacturer-approved cleaner handles deeper cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals, steam mops, and excessive standing water. Use felt pads under furniture legs to prevent indentations. We provide care guidelines with every installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is LVT/LVP waterproof?
Yes. LVT and LVP are waterproof at the surface level, making them an excellent choice for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and basements. Proper installation with sealed edges provides the best moisture protection.
Can LVT/LVP be installed over existing flooring?
In many cases, yes. LVT/LVP can often be installed over existing hard surfaces like tile or vinyl if they are flat and in good condition. We assess your existing floor during the consultation and recommend the best approach.
How durable is LVT/LVP with pets?
Very durable. LVT/LVP has a wear layer that resists scratches from pet nails and is easy to clean when accidents happen. It is one of the most pet-friendly flooring options available.
Does LVT/LVP look like real wood or stone?
Modern LVT/LVP uses advanced printing and embossing technology to closely replicate the look and texture of real wood and stone. Many homeowners and visitors cannot tell the difference.
How long does LVT/LVP last in a home?
With proper installation and normal residential use, LVT/LVP typically lasts 15-25 years. Higher-end products with thicker wear layers tend to last longer.
