Karndean Vinyl Flooring – Possibly a Perfect Floor

Karndean vinyl flooring is one of the most exciting new flooring options available on the market. Karndean creates vinyl planks and tiles that realistically simulate natural materials such as wood, stone, slate, ceramic and marble. With recent advances in technology, these luxurious vinyl planks and tiles look so amazingly real, you’ll be amazed.

These floors are very different from sheet-type vinyl. As the flooring is installed piece by piece, it gives it a handcrafted look just like real hardwood or tile flooring. Karndean also manufactures these tiles and planks in semi-random patterns so there are no repeating patterns that make the floor look cheap or like standard vinyl resilient flooring. A unique Karndean feature is the coloration of the floors. Slight changes to the color of the vinyl are made to give a slight random color difference. By doing this, the floors look just like the real thing and there are no stain issues if you ever need to replace a board or tile. There are six different reasons why many consider Karndean luxury vinyl tile and plank to be the perfect flooring.

1. Karndean vinyl flooring is stain-proof against just about everything except petroleum-based spills. This includes everything from red wine to pet urine.

2. These vinyl tile and planks are also waterproof. If you have a leak in the kitchen or bathroom, the water will not damage the vinyl. This is a very clear advantage over hardwood and laminate flooring. If you have a leak under your dishwasher and you have hardwood or laminate, you will have to replace part or all of the flooring at enormous cost. With Karndean, the worst case scenario is that you have to re-install the flooring.

3. This flooring is hypoallergenic and resistant to mold and mildew.

4. Luxury vinyl plank and tile are very difficult to scratch compared to laminate and hardwood. If you have pets, you absolutely cannot install better flooring than luxury vinyl.

5. Karndean tiles are nearly impossible to chip or break compared to ceramic, slate, stone and marble tiles. If you drop something heavy on them, it may cause a slight indentation. Of course, if you have real tile, it will probably crack or chip and will need to be replaced.

6. Cleaning is very simple. All it takes is regular dust mopping and an occasional damp mop. Never need to reapply any necessary finishing or polishing.
