How Do You Clean LVT Flooring?

LVT is water-proof, which means that it can be easily cleaned with a mop and some cleaning solution. Never use harsh chemicals, detergents or abrasive materials, like steel wool, to clean your flooring, and always check the label of any products that you buy to make sure they’re safe to use. Check out our How to Clean Luxury Vinyl Flooring article for more information.

Where Can You Use LVT Flooring in the Home?

Thanks to its versatility, LVT can be used in almost any room in the house. As it is waterproof, it’s a great choice for bathrooms with a soft, cushioned feel underfoot which keeps warmer than other flooring materials, such as tiles, and helps to insulate sound.
