Vinyl Wood Plank Sizes:

Vinyl wood plank flooring strips come in 4-8 inch widths and 36-48 inches in length. Some brands create varying lengths which creates a unique random look. That means that some pieces could be 36" inches long and another piece in the same carton could be 48" inches long. Commercial vinyl wood flooring planks are one the most durable and can withstand heavy loads and are also highly scratch resistance. One advantage to vinyl wood flooring vs. real hardwood is the ease of replacing a damaged or stained plank. Real hardwood is almost impossible to replace but commercial grade vinyl plank flooring is able to be fixed by just pulling up the damaged planks and replacing them with new realistic LVP vinyl wooden planks.

Vinyl Plank Flooring vs Hardwood

Hardwood flooring is beautiful and the texture is 2nd to none; however the durability of vinyl plank flooring and the cost comparison can't be matched. If you are trying to get the look of real hardwood floors and would like to not only save money but end up with product that will last decades, choose vinyl tile that looks like wood aka LVT (luxury vinyl tile) commercial grade tile flooring.

The composition of the material offers more flexibility that laminate as the way the surface is engineered.

Vinyl Wood Look Flooring Options

One common question that we get asked is what type of vinyl wood flooring should we get? Our response is usually Armstrong Natural Creations or Vivero if you can afford it but more importantly before we talk about budget I usually start by asking what the space is used for. The physical requirements for LVT (vinyl flooring that looks like wood) for a home or commercial setting can be a drastic difference in price, design and size / dimensions. However, it has become a popular trend that homeowners will purchase commercial or light industrial grade vinyl wood plank or tile flooring to ensure a more durable finished product. If it's for your home and cost is first on your list then I would say that 12 mil wear layer is a reasonable place to start and 20 mil wear and 1/8" thickness for commercial standards.
