10 Things To Consider When Purchasing a Floor


Vinyl flooring, also known as resilient flooring, is one product that lives up to its name. It truly is resilient and has evolved from ‘your grandmother's vinyl' to a new type of floor, with contemporary designs and an extremely durable surface. So when you are choosing a new floor, here are some things that make resilient a good option:

10. Easy Installation - For the do- it-yourself consumer or those that leave it to the experts, installations of resilient floors are easier to do than ever.

9. Durability - Resilient floors, especially premium end selections such as the beautifully high-end Socorro Slate from Mannington, are available with 20-year warranties. These floors also come with the company's exclusive "Gotta Love It Guarantee."

8. Variety – Capturing the essence of a countryside Italian villa or bringing the chic of uptown Manhattan into your own home are all possible via modern resilient patterns. Today you'll find resilient patterns in a wide range of colors and styles, from floral, stone or slate to hardwood, marble, or Mexican tile.

7. Affordability – The price continues to be right for resilient. Its affordable price makes it the right choice for anyone looking for beauty on a budget.

6. Stylish – Definitely not your Grandma's vinyl, today's resilient patterns are hip, fresh, and modern. They are rustic, or they are traditional. Whatever your style, there's a resilient pattern that fits your life

5. Practical - Kids plus pets equal lots of wear and tear. Cost effective and durable, the practical solution is to go resilient.

4. New Flexibility – Fiberglass-backed resilient flooring, also known as cushioned resilient, provides the ultimate comfort underfoot.

3. Maintenance – Resilient flooring continues to be one of the easiest floors to maintain. Just regular sweeping and occasional mopping keep it looking fresh and new.

2. Technology – Technological advances in flooring have allowed for floors that last longer and look better. Mannington's NatureForm Optix™ process provides the ultimate in realistic looks, with state-of-the-art printing, texturing and finishing technologies.
