Is It Vinyl … Or Is It Hardwood?
Why Vinyl
It’s vinyl, all right—the stylish result of continuing breakthroughs in modern technology and manufacturing methods. There are styles that convey the authentic look of wood or the classic appeal of ceramic tile.
Various shades and finishes allow you to choose the wood look down to the species, and now laminates are mimicking hardwood even more. Some laminates offer beveled, distressed, and highly textured options—giving your laminate floor not only the look of hardwood, but the feel of it, too.
Laminates are inherently “green,” because they use fewer resources and far less wood in their manufacture. And because they’re durable—some styles even offer 25-year warranties—you don’t have to replace laminate floors as often.
Consider laminate for a distinctive look that’s beautifully affordable … and affordably beautiful.

Care & Maintenance of Vinyl
Please be sure to reference your Vinyl floor warranty for specific care requirements! For your general information, however, here are some basic tips and facts:
- As needed, sweep your floor to remove dirt and grit
- Mop occasionally using a special cleaner we can recommend-just ask your sales associate for guidance.
- Avoid using detergent or soap-based products, which will dim the shine.
- Most Vinyl floors have finishes that do not require additional buffing, shining, or waxing-these actions, in fact, might harm the finish.
- Vinyl floors can be slippery when wet, so use caution when walking on them after mopping.
- Wipe spills promptly
- Use a Damp Cloth to blot up spills as soon as they happen. Never allow liquids to stand on your floor.
- Sweep, Dust Or Vacuum Regularly to prevent accumulation of dirt and grit that can scratch or dull the floor finish.
- For wax or gum, harden the spot with ice and then gently scrape with a plastic scraper
- Periodically clean the floor with cleaning products made specifically for laminate floor care
