Is luxury vinyl tile suitable for bathrooms and kitchens?

Yes, LVT flooring is designed to handle moisture, making it an excellent choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms. Unlike traditional wood, it won't warp when exposed to water, and it's far easier to clean. This durability makes it a practical yet stylish solution for busy households.

How does LVT compare to laminate flooring?

While both are affordable alternatives to hardwood, LVT is typically more durable and water-resistant. Laminate can swell if exposed to water, whereas luxury vinyl tile is built to withstand moisture. If you need something for high-traffic or high-moisture areas, LVT flooring is usually the better investment.

Can LVT be installed over existing floors?

In many cases, yes—LVT can be fitted over existing subfloors if they are clean, dry, and level. This makes installation quicker and less disruptive compared to ripping up old flooring. Our professional fitters will always assess your space and advise on the best preparation.

How do I maintain LVT flooring?

Luxury vinyl tile is low-maintenance and only needs regular sweeping and occasional mopping. Unlike wood, it doesn't require polishing or refinishing. Using felt pads on furniture and cleaning up spills quickly will keep your floor looking pristine for years.

Superb Experience Start To Finish, We're Very Pleased

Great experience using City Carpets and flooring. Compared to the carpet giant companies, they were much more affordable. But this did not mean the quality was worse in any way, far from it! The floors look GREAT. Super quick lead time on the installation, really helpful staff who tailored the job for individual needs, were happy to cater to our funny timeline with no price adjustment, and the floor fitter was a really nice chap who I was glad to see return for the second part of the installation. Have recommended City to some friends who I think are having a carpet installation soon, and they're equally pleased. Would definitely choose them again over Tapi or Carpet Right. Thank you!
