Why choose a PVC floor for the living room?
The living room is the largest and most visible space in the house, and the room where the floor makes the biggest difference to the atmosphere. A vinyl or PVC floor offers warm comfort underfoot for anyone who likes lounging on the floor or stretching out on the sofa, sound-dampening for a calmer acoustic and an endless variety of looks, from light oak to wide stone-effect planks. And because the living room often flows open-plan into the kitchen or dining area, you can run the same floor continuously for one calm, cohesive whole.
The benefits of a vinyl living room floor
- Warm and soft underfoot, comfortable to sit or play on
- Sound-dampening, especially with integrated underlay
- Suitable for underfloor heating
- Realistic oak, stone and herringbone looks
- Hard-wearing against kids and pets
- Easy to clean, no grout or dust pockets
Tip: protect your floor under heavy furniture
A PVC floor is hard-wearing, but heavy furniture (bookcase, sideboard, long sofa) can leave faint indentations over time. Fit felt pads or hard-floor glides under the legs, and for chairs on castors (an office chair in the living area), choose PU castors rather than hard plastic ones. In a large living room, long planks and herringbone give the calmest visual effect.
