What are Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT)?

Luxury Vinyl Tiles, also known as LVT, are a versatile flooring option that combines attractive designs with durability and easy maintenance.

Designed to replicate the appearance of natural materials such as wood, stone and ceramic tiles, LVT offers a practical and often more affordable alternative to the real thing.

Unlike traditional sheet vinyl, LVT comes in individual planks or tiles allowing you to create a realistic finish, with a wide choice of colours, patterns, textures and laying styles. It’s also generally warmer and softer underfoot, making it a popular choice for busy homes.

With so many options available, choosing what’s right for you can often feel overwhelming. That’s where we come in. We’ll help you understand the differences between ranges and find the right balance of appearance, performance and price.

Victoria Design Floors

Different ranges feature different designs, wear layers and performance characteristics. We’ll explain these differences so you can make an informed decision. The best way to appreciate colours, textures and finishes is to see them for yourself.

Why choose LVT flooring?

Luxury vinyl tiles offer a combination of style and practicality that makes them suitable for many different rooms and environments.

Water-resistant – Ideal for areas where splashes and spills are part of everyday life, such as kitchens and bathrooms.

Durable and hard-wearing – Designed to cope with regular foot traffic, making LVT a good choice for busy households and many commercial environments.

Scratch-resistant – Many ranges have protective wear layers that help resist everyday scuffs and scratches, although no flooring is completely scratch-proof.

Easy to clean – A simple cleaning routine is generally all that’s needed for LVT to look its best.

Hygienic – Its easy-clean surface makes LVT a practical choice for homes and workplaces.

Comfortable underfoot – LVT can offer a warmer, quieter feel than traditional hard flooring such as ceramic tiles.

Long-lasting performance – With the right product, proper preparation and professional installation, LVT can provide years of use.

Where can you use LVT flooring?

LVT is a versatile choice for both domestic and commercial properties and applications include

Kitchens – Water-resistant, easy to clean and designed to cope with the demands of everyday family life.

Bathrooms – A practical alternative to ceramic tiles, with a wide choice of designs and a more comfortable feel underfoot.

Hallways and entrances – Durable flooring that can cope with regular foot traffic while creating a welcoming first impression.

Living and dining rooms – Attractive wood and stone-effect designs that combine style with everyday practicality.

Commercial premises – Selected LVT ranges are suitable for offices, shops and other busy environments where durability and appearance are equally important.

The important thing is choosing the right product for the space.

A bathroom in a family home has very different requirements from a busy commercial entrance, and not every LVT product is designed for the same level of use.

We’ll ask about your property, how the room is used and what you want from your flooring before recommending the most suitable options.

Designs to suit your style

One of the biggest attractions of luxury vinyl tiles is the sheer choice of designs available.
Whether you’re looking for something traditional to complement a period property or a clean, contemporary finish, there’s plenty to choose from.

Wood-effect LVT

Love the look of wooden flooring but want something easier to maintain?

Wood-effect LVT can recreate the appearance of natural timber, with realistic grain patterns, textured finishes and a wide range of shades.

From light oak to darker, more rustic designs, you can enjoy the character of wood with the practical benefits of LVT.

Stone and ceramic-effect LVT

If you prefer the appearance of natural stone or ceramic tiles, LVT offers plenty of alternatives.

Choose from contemporary stone effects, classic tile designs and textured finishes that create the look you want without some of the practical drawbacks of traditional stone or ceramic flooring.

Victorian-style patterned tiles

Patterned flooring inspired by traditional Victorian tiles is an increasingly popular choice, particularly in period properties.

From striking geometric patterns to more subtle decorative designs, Victorian-style LVT can bring character to hallways, kitchens and bathrooms.

It’s a great way to create a traditional look while enjoying the benefits of modern flooring.

With so many colours, finishes and patterns available, it’s worth seeing samples before making your decision. You’re welcome to book an appointment at our Southville showroom, where we can help you explore the options.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is LVT better than traditional vinyl flooring?

LVT and traditional sheet vinyl both have their advantages. LVT is supplied in individual planks or tiles and often offers a more realistic wood, stone or ceramic appearance, along with excellent durability.

Traditional sheet vinyl can be a more economical choice for certain spaces. We’ll happily explain the differences and recommend the best option for your needs.

Is LVT suitable for bathrooms and kitchens?

Yes. Many LVT ranges are water-resistant and well suited to kitchens and bathrooms. Correct installation and subfloor preparation are important, particularly in areas where moisture may be present.
How long does LVT flooring last?

The lifespan of LVT depends on the quality of the product, the thickness and performance of its wear layer, the level of foot traffic and how well it’s maintained.

Choosing the right product and having it professionally installed can make a significant difference to its long-term performance.

Does LVT need a perfectly flat floor?

LVT requires a suitably flat, smooth and stable subfloor. Any significant imperfections may affect the finished appearance or cause problems over time.

We’ll assess the condition of your existing floor and explain whether any preparation is required before fitting.

Is LVT suitable for commercial properties?

Yes, provided you choose a range designed for the intended level of use. Different products have different wear layers and performance specifications, so we’ll help you select one that’s appropriate for your premises.

Can I see LVT samples before buying?

Of course. You can book an appointment to visit our showroom in Southville, Bristol, where we’ll help you explore the designs and finishes available. We can also discuss suitable samples as part of a consultation.
