Benefits of luxury vinyl flooring for pet-friendly homes

You can't go wrong with luxury vinyl flooring if you have a pet. It resists stains and scratches, and it's easy to clean, too. In addition, pet-friendly brands tend to be waterproof. Luxury vinyl plank flooring looks like various wood species, while luxury vinyl tile flooring imitates tile materials. Currently, stone look tiles are trendy. Central Valley Floor Design in El Dorado Hills, California, carries many LVP and LVT brands.

Characteristics of LVP and LVT


Luxury vinyl is a material that is composed of four layers. Since the wear layer protects the wood or tile image layer, thicker is better. Choose a brand that has a 20-mil plus wear layer. Then your floor will be adequately protected from an energetic pet, or heavy foot traffic, throughout its long lifespan. The core layer makes up the flooring bulk and is protected by the backing layer. If a small floor area does become damaged, planks or tiles are easily replaced. This floor covering can be installed anywhere in your home.

Metroflor USA


Metroflor USA is one of our favorite luxury vinyl flooring manufacturers. All of Metroflor's waterproof planks and tiles are ASSURE CERTIFIED. This means that the flooring meets all requirements for rigorous performance, indoor air quality, and low heavy metals and ortho-phthalates content. Glue-down or floating floor installation is the norm when choosing LVP or LVT flooring. However, the Metroflor USA Attraxion collection brings semi-permanent planks and tiles that feature Magnetic Attachment Technology to the marketplace.
