If you’re interested in improving the look of a floor or two in your home, this flooring is the perfect way for you to do it as you’ll soon see. Read on to learn all that loose lay vinyl planks have to offer.

 

✔Advantage
1.Simple Installation:

 

As mentioned above, loose lay flooring is extremely easy to install. You do not need to use any kind of glue, staple or clicklock system to install this flooring. Instead, this flooring’s back uses friction to get a grip of the subfloor beneath it. Installers that are putting in loose lay vinyl flooring literally just have to set it into position. Sure there is some cutting required for installation with many of these kits, but it’s simple to do and doesn’t require any advanced skill. Installers just go around the room and lay down the planks quickly and easily. When you ask an installer to come to your home to put down loose lay vinyl planks, you’ll often receive an enthusiastic response, because most installers love to put the flooring down. It’s also common to pay less for installation of loose lay vinyl floors because they don’t take very long to put down at all.

 

2.Simple To Move:

 

Another great advantage is that this flooring is just as easy to remove and re-install somewhere else. This means if you are changing houses, then you can take your flooring with you which would also help you save some money.

 

This is a rare benefit that you won’t see with many other types of flooring. If you pay for loos lay vinyl options, you can move them to different rooms as you see fit, or even switch them to a new house without too much work on your part. Just make sure that you are going to a room that’s the same size or smaller if you want the flooring to look proper once it’s installed in your new space, or that you have some extra loose lay vinyl planks available.

 

3.Won’t Expand Or Contract:

 

Many types of flooring expand and contracts with moisture, but this isn’t much of an issue with loose lay vinyl floors. The material is designed to resist any expansion or contraction, which means that you can count on the width of the flooring remaining the same. If you’ve ever been in an older home with wooden floors, you’ve likely seen expansion and contraction joints between the planks. That’s not an issue that you have to think about with loose lay vinyl flooring. That helps it continue looking like new for years and makes it good for areas where the floors might become damp with use. That’s why some people use this flooring in basements, kitchens, and bathrooms.

 

4.High Durability:

 

On top of being moisture resistant, loose lay vinyl options are known for their durability as well. They will hold up for years without trouble as long as you care for them properly. Sure they are softer than some other flooring solutions and can be deformed or ripped if you aren’t careful, but as long as you treat loose lay vinyl flooring with care, it can last for decades without wearing too badly at all.

 

5.Absorbs Sound:

 

Loose lay vinyl options are perfect for theater installations, or for the upstairs of homes or businesses. That’s because this flooring solution absorbs sounds nicely. Add them to the upstairs of your home and enjoy a reduction in noise almost instantly. Add them to your movie theater and you’ll notice that the noise is dampened a bit and that you enjoy higher quality sound overall throughout your space.
