Characteristics that set luxury vinyl flooring apart

Characteristics that set luxury vinyl flooring apart


Luxury vinyl flooring has everything you need in a floor covering - great looks, superior performance, easy maintenance, and an adaptable design that allows it to be installed in any home space.

Direct Custom Flooring carries the trendiest luxury vinyl flooring styles. Brands by well-regarded companies like Mohawk and Tarkett can be found in our showroom in Tavares, FL.

Versatile installation


Luxury vinyl flooring is designed for loose lay, floating floor, and glue-down installation; thus, the planks and tiles can be laid over any subfloor material and existing flooring. 'Click and lock' floating floor brands require no attachment to the subfloor.

So, if you choose loose-lay luxury vinyl planks or tiles that butt together, you can take the floor with you when you move!?

Multiple-layer makeup


Vinyl plank flooring
is composed of four layers, and when you opt for a superior brand, it features a thick transparent wear layer on the surface to protect the image layer.

This high-tech image mimics hardwood, stone, ceramic, or concrete, and a large selection of patterned designs can be found, too. These tough stain and scratch-resistant brands last 25 years or more.

Core layer


The waterproof core layer, protected by the backing layer, also ensures that your vinyl plank flooring will have a long lifespan. Liquid spills and water will not cause the planks and tiles to change shape or buckle.

Usually, waterproof luxury vinyl has a wood plastic composite (WPC) or a stone plastic composite (SPC) core, which tolerates water for extended periods.
