Vinyl Plank

Vinyl plank flooring is a popular choice due to its durability, aesthetic appeal, and ease of installation. The construction of vinyl planks involves multiple layers, each serving a specific function that contributes to the overall performance of the flooring.

1. Wear Layer: The top layer of the vinyl plank is the wear layer, typically made from a clear vinyl material. This layer protects against scratches, dents, and stains, ensuring that the flooring maintains its look over time. The thickness of the wear layer can vary, with thicker layers offering better protection and durability.

2. Printed Design Layer: Beneath the wear layer lies the printed design layer. This layer features high-definition graphics that replicate the appearance of natural materials such as wood or stone. Advanced printing technologies allow for intricate designs and textures, providing a realistic look without the maintenance associated with natural materials.

3. Core Layer: The core layer is responsible for the plank's stability and durability. It is usually made from high-density fibreboard (HDF) or a similar composite material. This layer gives the planking its strength and rigidity, ensuring it can withstand foot traffic and other stresses.

4. Backing Layer: The backing layer is the bottommost component of the vinyl plank, providing additional cushioning and sound absorption. This layer is often made from a softer material, enhancing comfort underfoot and reducing noise. Some products come with an attached underlayment for added insulation and moisture resistance.

5. Stabilising Layer: In vinyl plank constructions, there is an additional stabilising layer, which helps to prevent warping and expansion caused by changes in temperature and humidity. This layer enhances the structural integrity of the plank, making it suitable for various environments, including areas with fluctuating conditions.

Each of these layers works together to create a flooring option that is not only visually appealing but also built to last. Vinyl plank flooring offers a practical solution for homeowners and businesses looking for a stylish and resilient flooring choice.

How to Measure Your Room for Flooring

Measuring the Room

1. Gather Tools: You will need a measuring tape, a notepad, and a pencil. If available, a laser measure can speed up the process.

2. Measure Length and Width: For rectangular or square rooms, measure the length and width of the room in metres. Record these measurements.

3. Calculate Total Area: Use the formula: [ Area m = Length m x Width m ] For example, if your room measures 5m x 4m, the area will be: [ 5 m x 4 m = 20 m² ]

4. Measure Irregular Rooms: For rooms with odd shapes, divide the area into smaller rectangles or squares. Measure and calculate each section's area, then sum them up to get the total area.

Accounting for Wasteage

1. Add Waste Percentage: It is standard to add an allowance for waste, usually around 5%. To calculate this: [ Waste Area = Total Area times 0.05 ] If your total area is 20 m², the waste area would be: [ 20m² times 0.05 = 1]

2. Calculate Final Area Required: Add the waste area to your total area: [ Final Required Area = Total Area + Waste Area] For our example: [ 20 m² + 1m² = 21 m2]

Converting to Box Quantity

1. Determine Coverage Per Box: Check how much area one box of flooring covers. This information is usually available on the packaging or from the retailer.

2. Calculate Number of Boxes: Divide the final area required by the coverage per box: [ Number of Boxes = Final Required Area / Coverage per Box] For instance, if one box covers 3 m²: 21m² / 3 m² = 7 boxes ]

3. Round Up: Always round up to ensure you have enough flooring. If your calculation gives you a fraction, round up to the next whole number.

Final Calculation Example

• Room size: 5m x 4m = 20 m²

• Waste allowance: 1 m² (5% of 20 m²)

• Total area required: 21 m²

• Box coverage: 3 m²

• Total boxes needed: 7 (from 21 m² / 3 m²)

By following these steps, you can accurately measure your room, calculate the are

Care and Maintenance of Vinyl Plank Flooring

Vinyl plank flooring is a popular choice for its durability, affordability, and aesthetic appeal. To keep your floors looking their best, follow these care and maintenance guidelines:

Daily Cleaning

• Sweep or Vacuum: Remove dust, dirt, and debris daily using a soft broom or a vacuum with a hard floor attachment. Avoid vacuums with beater bars as they can scratch the surface.

Weekly Maintenance

• Mop with a Damp Cloth: Use a microfiber mop with a damp cloth to wipe down the surface. For better results, use a pH-neutral cleaner specifically designed for vinyl floors.

Spills and Stains

• Immediate Cleanup: Wipe up spills immediately to prevent stains. Use a soft cloth or paper towel and a mild soap solution for cleaning stubborn marks.

Deep Cleaning

• Monthly Cleaning: Perform a more thorough cleaning once a month. Prepare a solution of warm water mixed with a pH-neutral cleaner and mop the entire floor. Rinse with clean water to remove any residue.

Avoiding Damage

• Protect from Scratching: Use felt pads under furniture legs and avoid dragging heavy objects across the floor.

• Limit Exposure to Direct Sunlight: Use curtains or blinds to protect the flooring from excessive UV exposure, which can cause fading over time.

Periodic Maintenance

• Inspect for Damage: Regularly check for dents, scratches, or loose planks. Address any issues promptly to prevent further damage.

• Re-seal if Necessary: Depending on the type of vinyl plank flooring, re-sealing may be recommended every few years to maintain its appearance and protect against moisture.

By following these care and maintenance tips, your vinyl plank flooring will remain in excellent condition, enhancing the beauty and functionality of your space.
