Vinyl floors are one of the most durable and affordable flooring solutions available on the market these days. Depending on the vinyl you select, the costs can be up to 70 percent less when compared to other flooring materials, such as hardwood, marble and stone. High level of durability, low maintenance and versatility make the vinyl flooring a very popular flooring choice for commercial and residential applications. There are two types of vinyl sheet flooring: homogeneous and heterogeneous flooring.

The homogeneous vinyl floor covering is made of one single layer that offers vibrancy and depth of the colour. The heterogeneous flooring on the other hand, is a multi-layer flooring which comes in wide variety of beautiful patterns with endless design possibilities. This feature gives a feel and a look of natural flooring materials. Heterogeneous flooring also offers low maintenance cost, which is why is primary choice of homeowners, health care facilities, schools, etc.

Both vinyl homogeneous and heterogeneous flooring are affordable flooring solutions when compared with other flooring materials, and are incredibly stain resistant. These benefits make these two types of vinyl flooring a great choice for heavy traffic areas. With quality vinyl flooring you can create the perfect environment which will be both functional and modern. Vinyl heterogeneous flooring has many options and benefits and comes with varying thickness. It’s also patterned or coloured and it is often used in areas with high level of moisture like laboratories, bathrooms and kitchens as well. This flooring option is the best solution for houses as well, especially if there are kids and/or pets.

Vinyl heterogeneous flooring is available in many beautiful and unique designs that provide excellent acoustic performance and unique sound reduction properties because it can be applied from wall to wall. In wet areas, like showers, sinks, splash areas, swimming pools, etc, the vinyl flooring offers comfort when walking and gives a firm grip.

Vinyl heterogeneous flooring is suitable for both commercial and residential purposes. It can be easily installed (even if without any skills), but for more luxurious and complex forms, it is best to use professional services. You can find vinyl floor covering designed and produced by many manufacturers available in hundreds of colours, patterns and styles to choose from. With broad range of products and techniques, there aren’t limits to the designs you can create making a strong statement with your new vinyl heterogeneous flooring.

The life of the party, Anthony is always up for spending some time with family and friends, when not blogging of course! Ever since a child, his love for books of mystery, race cars and travelling keeps on growing so it's difficult for him to single out that one all-time favourite hobby. If there's one thing he hates, though, it's having pictures taken but you already guessed that from his choice of plant photo for the blog.
