Used since the 1930s, vinyl flooring is very resilient and typically can bounce back from whatever comes its way. Used for a variety of rooms and throughout the house, vinyl flooring is a practical, less expensive flooring solution than other options.
What once may be have been considered the same, boring, inexpensive looking vinyl floors of grandmothers and elderly aunts, are now used in many home in place of expensive hardwood or ceramic floors. Today's vinyl flooring manufacturers focus on design and durability while still containing costs.
Using different colors and textures, homeowners looking for an added touch to their vinyl floor can create mosaic art designs, boarders, patterns or simple shapes. Vinyl tiles can be cut into any shape making designs practical and installation around corners simple.
The rugged design and construction of vinyl flooring withstands abusive punishment from children's play, foot traffic, pet traffic and indentations from heavy furniture or other heavy objects. The stain and moisture resistant properties make vinyl flooring ideal for use in basements, bathrooms, laundry rooms and kitchens.
Other flooring surfaces are susceptible to common chemicals such as acids, alkalis, hydrocarbons and other cleaning agents such as chlorine bleach, whereas these do not impact vinyl flooring typically.
The pitter-patter of little feet turns in to the stomping feet of angry teenagers and vinyl flooring can help there too. The natural properties of the materials used in vinyl flooring suppress echoes and foot falls, and for even greater noise reduction padding can be inserted below the flooring.
Vinyl flooring ranges in price from 29 cents to $4 per square foot, making it a cost-effective flooring solution. The price is dependent upon the color, design, thickness and manufacturer; some types will be more expensive especially if you seek a custom touch.
