The kitchen is the heart of the home and the busiest room in the house. From morning to evening, through food preparations, doing the laundry or having a few friends round for an after-work drink, your kitchen never stops and nor does the potential for your flooring to be harmed.
For many homeowners, this is the primary reason that vinyl has become the number one replacement to authentic materials such as stone or wood. Vinyl comes with a lot less worry of breakages, scratches or stains and can be replaced in a matter of minutes. Let’s explore how vinyl can be beneficial to your home.
Broken dishes won’t break vinyl
When the kitchen is filled with family and you’re trying to get dinner ready you know that something has the potential to break when accidentally knocked to the floor.
The manufacturers of vinyl flooring are fully aware of their risk and have developed their technique over time to incorporate Scratch Guard technology which prevents your flooring from incurring any sort of scratching or chipping damage if an object does land from a height.
Vinyl provides a soft support base on the many layers that are combined in the manufacturing process. This means that the crevices you get with authentic wood or stone flooring are nowhere to be seen, making vinyl the safest option for yourself and your family because broken crockery or glass will have nowhere to hide.
Remains pristine
Dirt, debris and dust are the three dreaded words uttered by homeowners when they talk about what they want their flooring to deflect. Unfortunately, there is not yet a way to stop dust and dirt entering your home entirely but vinyl flooring can radically reduce the time it takes you to bring your home back to a show-room standard.
All you will require to keep your flooring at its high-quality standard is a sweep, hand brush, mop and bucket which when used, will only require a simple soap solution to sufficiently polish your floor back to its original gleaming state. So, you’re saving money on the flooring and the upkeep which is the making of a real value-for-money purchase.
Protects from moisture
In the same way vinyl prevents glass from seeping into the cracks of flooring, the same technique also works for liquids and moisture. If you’re just in from a walk in the rain, or you knock over a drink, vinyl blocks any gaps where liquid would usually sink into and find itself beneath your flooring.
Liquid reaching the very base of your flooring can ruin the substantial number of layers which make vinyl so durable and much more soundproof than other floorings materials. But what’s really clever about vinyl flooring is the anti-moisture properties which erase the changes of negative effects of moisture.
DIY friendly and trend adaptable
Most homeowners hate doing their own DIY but they also loathe having to call out a professional with a hefty price tag. Not to worry if you don’t want to call out a professional because vinyl flooring is totally DIY friendly and could not be easier.
Installing vinyl flooring uses a click or glue-down method (you can even choose which you prefer) and each plank is perfectly cut to the size required to fill every corner of the room. Simply lock the planks into place if you have opted for the click down method or use a small amount of glue to smooth the planks or tiles into place.
The real fun lies in selecting the colour palette which works for your home, adding a layering pattern or border and deciding on a texture such as wood or stone which will achieve the purpose of the room.
