Tired Of Stained And Smelly Carpeting? It May Be Time For Engineered Vinyl Plank Floors
Looking to tear out carpeting around your home and considering a hard surface flooring option but worried about your budget? If so, engineered vinyl plank flooring may be the best option for your living space.
The 5 layer composition of the engineered vinyl floors makes the product a top choice for homeowners, especially if you're tired of the work that comes with carpeting. Here are a few signs that indicate you're ready for vinyl plank floors.
You're Tired of Odors
Carpeting fabric will absorb and retain bacteria which can cause odors throughout the house. With engineered vinyl plank flooring, you won't have fabrics that retain bacteria, and there won't be bacteria trapped on the floor surface. EVP has a vinyl core, so you won't have to worry about the absorption of moisture and there won't be mold or mildew odors.
You Want Fast Easy Cleaning
Cleaning your carpets regularly is very time-consuming, or you must hire professionals with the proper equipment. Any time there is a spill or the carpet is soiled, cleaning is needed as well.
Vinyl plank flooring is easy to clean with tools you have in your own home and whenever needed. You can maintain and clean the flooring by:
- Sweeping or using a hard surface vacuum cleaner
- Mopping with safe cleaning products
- Wiping scuffs or marks regularly
The vinyl flooring is very low maintenance, which allows you to keep your floors looking great without putting in a lot of time.
You Want Great Floors on a Budget
Hardwood floors are a high-end item that looks stunning in the home, however, come with a hefty price tag. With vinyl plank flooring you can get the look of hardwood, but you only pay a fraction of the cost. The vinyl will also come with a warranty, so you know you're getting a durable and reliable product that is designed to last over time.
Have a couple of installation contractors come to your property to measure the space and give you a cost estimate for the vinyl plank floors you're considering for your home. There are a lot of different wood grain and stain options for you to choose from, if you are trying to match the existing trim around your home, or if there is wood in other areas.
If you are worried you are going to miss walking on the carpeting, consider large area rugs to protect your vinyl plank floors. Get rid of smelly and stained carpeting and upgrade to EVP floors today.
