Vinyl Plank
Vinyl plank systems are well suited to Bathrooms. Kitchens, Laundries and any other area exposed to water. Vinyl is far more appealing than plain concrete, and can handle the moisture problems not possible with carpet, wood laminates or most stone. It is often found in at least a few rooms of any home.
Vinyl flooring can be produced as either continuous sheets or individual tiles or planks. Planks and tiles are far more popular as they have all the advantages of the vinyl surface but are much easier to install. They can be made to reproduce the appearance of many different types of flooring.
Design Options
Vinyl tiles or planks can be made to look like ceramic tile, wood, stone or any number of decorative designs. They can also be made smooth or pebble textured, and given a non-slip finish to ensure safety in wet environments such as bathroom.

Economical Flooring
For all its advantages in wet conditions Vinyl flooring is relatively cheap, especially compared to the stone and tiled surfaces that it emulates. It is a very versatile and cost effective flooring.
