LVT combines durability and style and is considered to be one of the most versatile flooring finishes, rivalling natural wood, ceramics and porcelain.
 
Our LVT is available in 20 different stunning colours, from modern greys to warm walnuts. It’s also 100% waterproof, so unlike hardwoods or laminates it’s ideal for bathrooms and kitchens - as well as the rest of the home.
