At Homecall Carpets, we pride ourselves on offering a wide range of high-quality flooring options to suit every home and lifestyle.
One of our most popular choices is Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) flooring.
But what exactly is LVT, and why has it become such a favoured option for homeowners across Sussex? Let’s dive in and explore this versatile flooring solution.
Understanding LVT Flooring
LVT, or Luxury Vinyl Tile, is a modern flooring option that combines the beauty of natural materials with the practicality of advanced synthetic construction. It’s designed to mimic the look and feel of materials like wood, stone, or ceramic while offering enhanced durability and easier maintenance.
As a family-run business with years of experience, we at Homecall Carpets have seen firsthand how LVT has revolutionised the flooring industry. Our extensive vinyl collection in our showroom in Ditchling Common showcases thousands of LVT samples, allowing our customers to experience the quality and variety of this innovative flooring solution.
What Our Customers Say
The Composition of LVT Flooring
LVT flooring is composed of several layers, each contributing to its overall performance:
- Wear layer: A clear, protective top coat that resists scratches, stains, and general wear and tear.
- Design layer: A high-resolution photographic layer that replicates the look of natural materials.
- Core layer: A sturdy, waterproof layer that provides stability and durability.
- Backing layer: The foundation that adds strength and helps with installation.
Why Choose LVT Tiles and Flooring?
- Stunning Aesthetics
LVT offers an incredibly realistic representation of natural materials. Whether you’re after the warmth of oak, the sleek look of slate, or something more unique, our range includes options to suit every taste. Brands like Karndean, our most popular collection, offer an impressive array of designs that can transform any room in your home.
- Durability and Longevity
One of the key advantages of LVT is its exceptional durability. It’s resistant to scratches, dents, and stains, making it an excellent choice for high-traffic areas or homes with pets and children. Many of our LVT options come with extensive warranties, giving you peace of mind for years to come.
- Water Resistance
Unlike some natural flooring options, LVT is highly water-resistant. This makes it an ideal choice for areas prone to moisture, such as kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms. Our experts can guide you to the best water-resistant options from top brands like Amtico and Invictus.
- Easy Maintenance
LVT flooring is incredibly easy to clean and maintain. A simple sweep and occasional mop are usually all that’s needed to keep your floors looking their best. This low-maintenance aspect is particularly appealing to busy households.
- Comfort Underfoot
Despite its durability, LVT is softer and warmer underfoot compared to natural stone or ceramic tiles. Many of our LVT options are also compatible with underfloor heating systems, adding an extra layer of comfort to your home.
- Versatile Installation Options
LVT comes in various installation formats, including click-lock systems that are ideal for DIY enthusiasts. However, for a flawless finish, our professional installation service ensures your new flooring is laid to perfection.
