For those considering the prospect of installing luxury wood effect vinyl flooring throughout the home or sections of it, you can choose between two methods for installation.

Whilst it may not seem like a huge deal whichever you choose, there is enough of a difference in ease and installation costs for you to consider. Which one is the method for you?

Incorporating a slightly thinner design, Gluedown LVT is an installation method that provides stable, long-lasting flooring. You will need to make sure the subfloor that is being installed over is flat and even and there are no imperfections that will be highlighted in your new flooring.

After ensuring that the subfloor is not prone to moisture, each individual tile will require glueing down which takes a bit longer to install and may require the work of a professional installer if you find it a bit difficult yourself.

Gluedown LVT is a more affordable option over Click LVT, but the cheaper option does not mean it slacks on quality. Offering increased levels of stability and offers a heightened level of durability for those heavy traffic areas, providing stronger ability to last in areas where moisture and temperatures tend to rise such as bathrooms and kitchens.

Although LVT flooring has been known to not feel the impact of moisture and temperature risings, there are still problems that can affect your floor. If you are looking to implement LVT in high moisture areas then Gluedown is the preferred method for you.

Offering the same layered construction as Gluedown, Click LVT does have differences. Incorporating a click system requires a thicker product than Gluedown, which does not necessarily offer more durability but has the same wear layer as its Gluedown counterpart.

The click system offers incredible ease in installation that can be done by anyone, with many people choosing to forgo the professional fitter and the price that comes with it. The chosen choice is to use underlay instead of fitting it over a subfloor, which gives a boost to the comfort and reduces the amount of work put in to installation.

Being a fast and easy installation method, Click LVT gives a genuine aesthetic due to the thickness of the planks whilst providing maximum comfort underfoot and minimum impact on your time and wallet.

Of course, judging which type is for you comes down to where you plan to install it. Gluedown works better for high traffic areas such as kitchens and living rooms and hallways. The appearance of each is equally impressive, with click offering a more realistic wooden vibe. Amtico offers impressive ranges through Signature woods to Spacia stone to give ultimate satisfaction no matter where you choose to implement luxury vinyl flooring.

When looking for the best between both choices, you can be sure to find the lowest price amtico flooring suits any room.
