Wood-Effect Vinyl Flooring FAQs

What is wood-effect vinyl flooring?

Wood-effect vinyl flooring is vinyl that has been embossed to mimic real wood, perfect for anyone going for a rustic or classic feel for their home. Using the latest printing technology and embossing techniques, vinyl can provide the authentic look and feel of a wooden floor at a fraction of the price and with far less maintenance.

How do you install vinyl wood flooring?

Wood-effect vinyl flooring can be fitted either loose lay or fully stuck, depending on the type of vinyl and the size of your room. Foam-backed vinyl is usually suitable for loose laying in rooms up to 12sqm, while felt-backed vinyl may work better in larger spaces.
