Expert Luxury Vinyl Flooring Installation
Get a Flawless Finish with Macco's Floor Covering Center's Pros
Luxury vinyl flooring, including both planks and tiles, offers stunning visuals, outstanding durability, and easy maintenance – perfect for busy homes. However, professional installation ensures a flawless finish that enhances your new floor's beauty and maximizes its lifespan.
Getting Ready for Your Luxury Vinyl Installation
Luxury vinyl floor installation can be tricky. At Macco's Floor Covering Center, we suggest you have your vinyl flooring professionally installed. Our highly trained installation team has experience with the heavy, difficult work required to ensure a vinyl floor looks its best.
As with any flooring installation, you’ll need to clear the room of furniture and other items before the luxury vinyl tile floor is installed. It may be necessary to remove baseboards and molding in advance; be sure to ask your installer about this. This flooring solution can be installed on virtually any surface, but it will show imperfections in the materials below it if they exist. For this reason, it’s important that you talk to an installation professional about your flooring substrate before installation. Depending on your subfloor, you may need an underlayment laid before the vinyl is put in place.
During Your Luxury Vinyl Installation
Once your substrate is ready to go, your luxury vinyl floor will be installed.
Vinyl can be installed with one of three different techniques:
- Full Spread Installation: For maximum stability, installers apply adhesive to the entire substrate before laying the luxury vinyl flooring.
- Perimeter Adhered Installation: This method uses adhesive only around the seams and perimeters of the vinyl flooring, offering a strong hold with less adhesive use.
- Floating Installation: Luxury vinyl planks or tiles can be installed using a click-lock system without any glue, creating a floating floor that expands and contracts with temperature changes.
After Your Luxury Vinyl Installation
After installation, you’ll need to ensure good ventilation in your room. You can help ensure good air flow by opening windows, turning on fans and taking other steps to air the room out for about 48 to 72 hours. Then, it’s up to you to care for and maintain your new vinyl floor.
