This range offers a fantastic selection of contemporary luxury vinyl tile designs, expertly crafted to replicate the natural beauty of wood and stone. Elements LVT provides an attractive and practical flooring solution, bringing sophisticated aesthetics to any room in your home.
Built for modern living, Elements LVT combines elegant design with impressive durability and ease of maintenance. Its water-resistant properties make it ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and hallways, while the hard-wearing surface ensures it can handle the demands of busy households. Choose Elements LVT for a floor that looks stunning and performs brilliantly, expertly supplied and fitted by Grosvenor Flooring.
Elements LVT stands out as a compelling choice within the luxury vinyl tile market, offering homeowners a blend of authentic design, robust performance, and excellent value. Designed with meticulous attention to detail, the collection features highly realistic wood and stone effects, capturing the unique textures and patterns found in nature. Whether you desire the warm, rustic charm of timber planks or the cool, sophisticated look of stone tiles, Elements LVT provides options to complement any interior design scheme, from traditional to contemporary.
The construction of Elements LVT contributes significantly to its appeal. Typically featuring a multi-layered build, it includes a protective wear layer that guards against scratches, scuffs, and stains, ensuring the floor maintains its appearance even in high-traffic areas. Beneath this, a high-definition decorative layer provides the stunning visual realism the brand is known for. Its core structure offers stability and, crucially, makes the flooring 100% waterproof, providing peace of mind when installed in areas prone to spills and moisture, such as kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms, and entranceways.
Ease of maintenance is another key benefit. Unlike natural wood or stone which may require sealing or specialised cleaning, Elements LVT is remarkably simple to care for. Regular sweeping or vacuuming, combined with occasional damp mopping using a pH-neutral cleaner, is all that’s needed to keep the floor looking its best. This low-maintenance characteristic makes it an ideal choice for busy families and those seeking a hassle-free flooring solution.
Available in various plank and tile formats, Elements LVT offers design flexibility. You can achieve classic looks or explore more modern laying patterns like herringbone, depending on the specific product chosen. Grosvenor Flooring’s expert team can provide guidance on the best Elements LVT product for your needs and ensure a flawless installation, maximising the performance and longevity of your new floor throughout Cheshire and the North West.
Elements LVT Buying Guide
Choosing the right flooring involves considering various factors. This guide will help you determine if Elements LVT is the perfect fit for your home and lifestyle:
- Room usage / Location: Elements LVT is highly versatile and suitable for almost any room in the house, including living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, kitchens, and bathrooms, thanks to its waterproof properties. It’s an excellent choice for high-traffic areas due to its durability. It is not generally recommended for outdoor use or unheated conservatories.
- Lifestyle: Ideal for busy households, homes with children, and pet owners. Its scratch-resistant wear layer and easy-to-clean surface make it resilient to the demands of daily life, spills, and muddy paws.
- Budget: Elements LVT typically represents a mid-range LVT option, offering a great balance between quality, style, and cost. While the initial outlay might be higher than standard vinyl or some laminates, its longevity and low maintenance provide excellent long-term value. Consider installation costs as part of the overall budget – professional fitting is recommended.
- Durability & Maintenance: Featuring a tough protective wear layer, Elements LVT is designed for durability, resisting scratches, scuffs, and stains effectively. Maintenance is minimal – regular sweeping or vacuuming and occasional damp mopping with a suitable LVT cleaner are sufficient.
- Material Type Pros & Cons:
Pros: Highly realistic wood and stone designs, 100% waterproof, durable and scratch-resistant, easy to clean and maintain, comfortable and relatively warm underfoot compared to natural materials, compatible with underfloor heating.
Cons: Requires a smooth, level subfloor for proper installation, can be damaged by very sharp objects or extreme point loads, quality can vary between LVT ranges (Elements is positioned as a quality offering). - Aesthetics & Style: Offers a wide array of authentic wood grain patterns (from classic oak to contemporary greys) and stone effects (like slate, concrete, or marble). Available in various plank and tile sizes, allowing for diverse design possibilities to match any interior décor.
- Comfort & Sound: Elements LVT feels softer and warmer underfoot than ceramic tiles or stone. It also offers some sound dampening, reducing footfall noise compared to harder surfaces, contributing to a quieter home environment.
- Underfloor Heating: Elements LVT is generally compatible with most types of water-piped underfloor heating systems. Always check the specific product guidelines and ensure the heating system operates within the recommended temperature limits (usually max 27°C surface temperature).
- Installation: Elements LVT typically comes in glue-down formats, requiring full adhesion to a properly prepared subfloor. Professional installation by experienced fitters, like the team at Grosvenor Flooring, is highly recommended to ensure a perfect finish, correct subfloor preparation, and validity of warranties.
- Sustainability: Look for specific product details regarding recycled content or manufacturing processes. LVT is generally long-lasting, reducing the need for frequent replacement. Check manufacturer information for specific environmental credentials.
