Vinyl Tile Flooring Pros
Great Value Vinyl tile is one of the best values in flooring.
Easy Installation For DIYers, glueless and peel n stick vinyl tile is the
easiest floor to install.
Install Anywhere in the Home Can be installed in any room, including
bathrooms. Can be installed on all levels including below grade.
Wide Variety of Designs, Sizes and Shapes A wide variety of designs ranging
from natural materials to original patterns in 12" x 12", large formats and
planks. Vinyl has the look of wood, stone or ceramic tile at a lower price
point.
Low Maintenance Just sweep and mop occasionally.
Considerations
Lower Life Expectancy Vinyl tile will not last as long as
hardwood, ceramic tile or linoleum.
Seams That Can Accumulate Dirt and Moisture Water can seep into tile seams.
This can create maintenance, adhesive bonding and subfloor issues.
Gouging and Tearing Resilient Vinyl tile is easier to gouge and tear than
ceramic tile. In higher traffic areas, be sure to install thicker vinyl tile for
better performance.
Does Not Increase Home's Value Vinyl tile is less likely than natural
flooring products to enhance the monetary value of your home.
