HOW TO SELECT THE RIGHT FLOORING FOR YOUR HOME
Selecting the right flooring for your home can be a tough decision. Flooring sets the tone for the rest of the room and not only has to meet your interior style preferences but also be suitable for your lifestyle. There are so many different types of flooring to choose from with all of them touting different features and benefits. Before making a flooring purchase, you should ask yourself some basic questions to determine what features are important to you.
Your answers to these questions can help guide you in selecting the right flooring for your home.
If you answered yes to any of these questions, one flooring category to consider is sheet vinyl.

Sheet vinyl is known for being a great option for kitchens and bathrooms because it is waterproof and easy to clean. However, due to improvements in design offerings and textures, sheet vinyl is now making its way into other rooms of the home.
One of the major benefits of sheet vinyl flooring is that it is waterproof. Sheet vinyl is composed of waterproof material, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and is installed as a solid sheet with no joints or openings in smaller rooms or with a small seam in larger rooms that restricts water from passing through to the subfloor. These properties make sheet vinyl suitable in areas subject to spills and moisture like the kitchen or bathroom.

Another feature of sheet vinyl is its durability. The more durable the floor, the longer it will last in your home. If you have pets and/or children, sheet vinyl is a great option because it is durable enough to withstand pet claws and toys being dragged across it.
Sheet vinyl is also a more affordable flooring option in comparison to other flooring types such as hardwood and ceramic tile. It is a great option for budget-conscious individuals that want the look of a high-end floor without the price tag.

Another benefit of sheet vinyl is that it is low maintenance. Unlike other types of flooring that require waxing, buffing, or routine vacuuming, sheet vinyl can be easily cleaned by using a broom to sweep away dirt and a damp mop to clean up spills.
Since sheet vinyl does not have any joints or openings between individual planks and tiles, it keeps dust and debris from accumulating. Furthermore, sheet vinyl has a clear protective surface layer called the “wear layer” that adds an extra barrier against stains and spills that makes cleaning them up easier.
