Vinyl Flooring Melbourne

Vinyl flooring uses layered synthetic materials to create a durable and practical floor surface. It is available in plank, tile and sheet formats with timber, stone, concrete and other decorative finishes.

Luxury vinyl plank, commonly called LVP, uses individual vinyl planks to create a timber-style floor. Modern printing and embossing techniques can reproduce timber grain, colour and texture with a realistic appearance.

Luxury vinyl tile, or LVT, uses individual tile-format pieces rather than long planks. It is commonly designed to reproduce stone, concrete, ceramic and other architectural finishes.

Sheet vinyl is supplied in wide rolls rather than individual planks or tiles. It can cover larger areas with fewer joins and is available in residential and commercial specifications.

Vinyl itself offers strong resistance to water, but the complete flooring system also depends on seams, edges, installation method and subfloor conditions.

Product wording varies. For example, Natural Creations XL lists a waterproof surface, which is not the same as a waterproof floor system.

Always check the specifications and warranty of the exact product before choosing it for kitchens, laundries or other moisture-prone areas.

Hybrid flooring uses a rigid core and is normally installed as a floating click-lock floor. Vinyl plank has a more flexible construction and Dex Flooring installs it using a glue-down system.

Vinyl can feel softer and quieter underfoot, while hybrid provides a more rigid floating-floor construction.

Glue-down vinyl flooring does not use traditional floating-floor underlay. The flooring is bonded directly to a properly prepared subfloor using the adhesive system specified for the product.

It may. Vinyl follows the shape of the subfloor more closely than a rigid floating floor, so imperfections can show through the finished surface.

Uneven areas may require grinding, patching or levelling before installation.
