Vinyl plank flooring installation in a Baton Rouge, LA dining room

How is vinyl plank flooring installed?


The installation process for luxury vinyl flooring can happen in various ways, depending on several factors. Whichever options are used, the process is generally faster than for other materials, and we’re going to tell you more about that in today’s post, so follow along with us here.

Luxury vinyl flooring for the win

The products you choose, your subfloor type and condition, and other factors can affect the installation of your luxury vinyl tile and vinyl plank flooring. For instance, we can float some luxury vinyl, which means the pieces click and lock together, but no adhesives or nails are used.

As you might expect from the name, Loose-lay vinyl is laid into place. However, with the addition of plasticizers and other components, the pieces are heavier and primarily remain in place via friction.

For vinyl floors installed with nails, staples, or glue, the results are more permanent, so there can be less problematic behavior, but they are also harder to remove when it’s time to replace.
