Embracing the trend for luxury vinyl for style & durability in the home

Spring is still some way off. But the good news is the long, cold days of January are perfect for planning and prepping for those new-season projects and renovations − and family-run, independent online tiles and flooring specialist Hyperion Tiles is here to help.

Our director Richard explains: “The combination of extremes of temperature, wet weather and dirty footprints can really take their toll on your flooring over the winter. If you’re thinking of upgrading some areas in time for spring, do consider the many benefits of luxury vinyl. This type of flooring has really evolved and nowadays is available in a huge range of formats, sizes, colours and finishes. We offer highly competitive trade pricing too.”

Luxury vinyl flooring offers many advantages, including:

1. Versatile good looks. It can realistically replicate the appearance of wood, stone, concrete and terrazzo floors, so there’s an option to suit all personal tastes and every type of interior design scheme.
2. Great affordability. Luxury vinyl tiles are a far more cost-effective option than the real wood and natural stone flooring it so closely resembles − an important consideration as the cost-of-living crisis continues.
3. Impressive durability. Both luxury vinyl tiles and luxury vinyl planks are long-lasting flooring options that maintain their good looks over long periods of time.
4. Efficient water resistance. Thanks to its water-resistant qualities, and unlike natural wood or laminate, luxury vinyl flooring can be laid in wet/humid environments, such as kitchens, bathrooms and basements.
5. Easy maintenance. Some types of flooring need a lot of TLC. In contrast, luxury vinyl flooring is very easy to maintain and keep clean. Simply sweep or vacuum to remove surface dust and dirt, and follow up with a weekly wipe-down with a damp mop or microfibre cloth.
