Why Choose LVP?

The Benefits of Luxury Vinyl Plank

Discover why homeowners and property investors are choosing LVP for their flooring projects.

100% Waterproof Protection

Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring is completely waterproof, making it perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and high-moisture areas. Unlike traditional hardwood or laminate, LVP won't warp, swell, or buckle when exposed to water. This makes it an ideal choice for areas prone to spills, humidity, or moisture, providing long-lasting performance without the worry of water damage.

Superior Durability

LVP is engineered to withstand the demands of daily life. Its tough wear layer resists scratches, dents, and stains, making it ideal for high-traffic areas and homes with pets and children. The multi-layer construction provides exceptional strength and stability, ensuring your floors maintain their beauty and integrity for years to come without showing signs of wear.

Authentic Wood Appearance

Modern manufacturing techniques and advanced printing technology create incredibly realistic wood grain patterns, textures, and colors. LVP can convincingly mimic premium hardwood species at a fraction of the cost. The embossed surface adds depth and texture, providing both visual appeal and tactile authenticity that rivals natural wood.

Cost-Effective Investment

LVP offers the high-end look of hardwood without the premium price tag. Installation costs are typically lower due to simpler installation methods, and the material itself is more affordable than solid hardwood. Additionally, LVP requires no refinishing, sanding, or special treatments over its lifetime, resulting in significant long-term savings on maintenance and upkeep.

Low Maintenance Requirements

Maintaining LVP flooring is remarkably simple and requires minimal effort. Regular sweeping or vacuuming removes dirt and debris, while occasional damp mopping with a pH-neutral cleaner keeps floors looking fresh. The smooth, non-porous surface resists stains and spills, allowing for quick and easy cleanup. No waxing, polishing, or refinishing is ever needed.

Enhanced Comfort

LVP provides a warmer, softer feel underfoot compared to tile or hardwood, creating a more comfortable walking surface. When paired with quality underlayment, it offers additional cushioning that reduces foot fatigue and provides sound dampening properties. This makes LVP an excellent choice for multi-story homes where noise reduction is important.

Material Quality

Understanding LVP Quality Differences

Not all luxury vinyl plank products are created equal. Learn what to look for when selecting your flooring.

Wear Layer Thickness

The wear layer is the transparent protective coating on top of LVP that determines its durability and longevity. Higher-end vinyl floors feature thicker wear layers (20-30 mil) that resist scratches, stains, and daily wear far better than budget options with thin wear layers (6-12 mil). A thicker wear layer means your floor will maintain its appearance longer, especially in high-traffic areas. We recommend a minimum of 20 mil for residential applications and 30 mil for commercial or heavy-use areas.

Core Construction

The core layer provides structural integrity and stability. Premium LVP uses stone plastic composite (SPC) or wood plastic composite (WPC) cores that offer superior dimensional stability, impact resistance, and moisture protection. These advanced core materials prevent warping, maintain their shape in varying temperatures, and provide a solid feel underfoot. Budget products often use cheaper core materials that may be prone to damage or instability.

Installation Method

Quality LVP typically features click-lock installation systems that create tight, secure connections without adhesive. This floating floor method allows for easier installation and potential future removal. The locking mechanism's quality directly impacts floor stability and gap prevention. Premium products have reinforced locking systems that maintain their integrity over time and through seasonal temperature changes.

When you choose EverSet Floors for your installation, we connect you with reputable LVP manufacturers and help you select products with proven durability ratings and comprehensive warranties. We believe it's smarter to invest in quality vinyl flooring for a longer-lasting, more durable floor that protects your investment.

Maintenance Guide

Caring for Your LVP Flooring

Proper care ensures your luxury vinyl plank flooring maintains its beauty for years to come.

Daily & Weekly Cleaning

Regular sweeping or vacuuming eliminates dirt, dust, and debris that can cause surface scratches over time. Use a soft-bristle broom or a vacuum without a beater bar to avoid scratching. For weekly cleaning, damp mop with a pH-neutral cleaner specifically designed for vinyl floors. Avoid excessive water and always wring out mops thoroughly, as standing water can seep into seams.

Spill Management

While LVP is waterproof, prompt cleanup of spills prevents potential staining and maintains appearance. Wipe up spills immediately with a clean, damp cloth. For sticky substances, use a manufacturer-approved vinyl floor cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive scrubbers, or steam cleaners, as these can damage the wear layer and void warranties.

Protective Measures

Use furniture pads under all furniture legs to prevent indentations and scratches when moving items. Place doormats at entryways to trap dirt and moisture before they reach your floors. Avoid dragging heavy furniture or appliances across LVP surfaces. For office chairs, use a chair mat to prevent wear from casters. These simple precautions significantly extend your floor's lifespan.

What to Avoid

Never use waxes, polishes, or oil-based soaps on LVP flooring, as these products create a dull film that builds up over time and attracts dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaning tools like steel wool or scouring pads. Don't use ammonia-based or highly acidic cleaners, which can break down the wear layer. Steam mops should also be avoided, as excessive heat can damage the planks and adhesive bonds.

Before You Decide

Important Considerations

Understanding these factors helps ensure LVP is the right choice for your project.

Subfloor Preparation

Proper subfloor preparation is critical for successful LVP installation. The subfloor must be clean, dry, level, and structurally sound. Any imperfections or unevenness will telegraph through the vinyl planks and create an unprofessional appearance. We thoroughly assess and prepare subfloors, including repairing damage, leveling high and low spots, and ensuring proper moisture levels before installation begins.

Acclimation Requirements

LVP must acclimate to the installation environment for 48-72 hours before installation. This allows the planks to adjust to the room's temperature and humidity levels, preventing expansion or contraction after installation. We store the unopened boxes flat in the installation room, maintaining temperatures between 65-85°F. Proper acclimation is essential for preventing gaps, buckling, or warping.

Future Removal Considerations

While click-lock floating LVP installations are relatively easy to remove, glue-down installations can be more challenging. Strong adhesives may damage subfloors during removal, requiring additional repair work. If you're installing in a space where you might want to change flooring in the future, discuss installation method options with us. We can help you choose the approach that best balances stability with future flexibility.
