Is it possible to get wood looks in vinyl? Yes, because vinyl is flame-retardant.?
That means the floors won't spread the flames if something catches fire. Luxury vinyl can be installed either in front or next to the fireplace.
That being said, always have a professional installer do it! It's sensitive to radiant heat and temperature changes. Dropped hot items are also a no-no.
Think about the hearth
This is the fireplace floor that extends out into the room. Your vinyl plank flooring can be installed up to it.
It?s made of non-combustible materials, such as stone or brick. The original intent of the hearth was to keep us all safe from fire.
Not all fireplaces have hearths; it can still be done, but the installer will use special considerations.
An abundance of style and function
Rather than sheets, luxury vinyl comes in two forms. Luxury vinyl plank (or LVP) is cut into strips and mounted on boards to mimic hardwood.?
Alternatively, the square, tile-sized pieces (luxury vinyl tile or LVT) are used mainly to echo stone and ceramic tile looks.
Luxury vinyl flooring is trending and follows all the latest designs.
