LVT (luxury vinyl tile) captures the drama of earth’s woods, stones, metals and original graphic designs in an easy-to-install and fun-

to-use resilient flooring. These fashionable floors combine the best of design and technology in one product.

Marlon Allen, owner of Wood & Floors Outlet of Denton, is proud to offer the line.

“Luxury vinyl tile flooring has naturally influenced designs with performance advantages that include easy installation and low costs,” Allen said. “Plus, it’s easy to maintain and it looks close to real tile and hardwoods.”

It is an especially good buy for people with children and/or pets because of its durability and easiness to maintain.

“It is very consumer-friendly,” Allen said.

Another advantage is that it is “installation –friendly for the do-it-yourselfer.

The businessman said he is a fan of the green aspect of LVT.

“Many of the products are made up of 50 percent or more recycled products,” Allen said.

LVT has superior scratch and indentation resistance compared to traditional sheet and fiberglass vinyls, and it overcomes some negatives associated with laminate.

The owner of Wood & Floors Outlet said LVT offers an economical alternative to many natural and bio-based flooring products. It also gives consumers a product that has the visual appeal of more expensive products such as wood, stone and marble.

“Many people may not realize they are not walking on the real thing,” Allen said.
