When it comes to innovative flooring solutions, vinyl has emerged as a game-changer for homeowners in Singapore. As a reputable renovation contractor specializing in tiling, marble, and vinyl floor finishes, we're excited to introduce you to our premium German vinyl flooring, which is packed with many features that make it ideal for Singaporean homes.
1. Vinyl gives the look of hardwood floors without the vulnerability
Be it a landed property, condominium, or HDB flat, no home in Singapore is spared exposure to our hot and humid tropical climate. The moist air and hot sun can be challenging for many flooring materials.
Take parquet for example. The small individual pieces tend to create a lot of gaps which are vulnerable to attack from water and moisture even though the top surface is protected by varnish, leaving a 'gappy' and shabby looking finish after a few years. So what can homeowners do if they want the look of a wooden floor?
Because our vinyl flooring is homogenous and non-porous, it is highly resistant to moisture, making it an ideal choice for regions prone to humidity. The ClickPro system of interlocking grooves on our vinyl planks also ensure a tight seal between planks, making it resistant to water seepage too.
Appearance wise, it is seamless and has a textured finish just like real timber. Once you touch a sample you will likely agree! Water can come from many places like an open window in a storm, dripping from our body when we forget to bring a towel into the bathroom, or a leaking aircon fan coil, so it pays to be prepared.
2. Vinyl Offers Many Design Possibilities
Gone are the days when vinyl flooring was limited to basic designs. Our vinyl floor finishes offer an incredible array of design options, including realistic wood, stone, and marble visuals and textures. Whether you're envisioning the rustic charm of hardwood or the sleek elegance of marble, we can replicate these looks with astonishing accuracy.
Note that when choosing vinyl, not just the look but the texture matters too! Your feet will be touching the vinyl, so it's best to get a feel of your texture before the final decision. Our expert team can help you choose the perfect vinyl design to complement your interior aesthetics.
3. Vinyl Floors Feature Easy, Fast Installation
Vinyl flooring is known for its straightforward installation process, making it a convenient choice for busy homeowners. Our skilled installation team ensures precise fitting and seamless results, saving you time and hassle. Our vinyl features the ClickPro interlocking system that ensures that each plank is securely fastened in place and does not move or slide around leaving unsightly gaps. The bottom layer which rests on the substrate is also made of a grippy rubber, further ensuring that each plank is securely in place, and does not move or creak like some cheaper products.
Once installed, vinyl floors are a breeze to maintain. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping are usually all that's needed to keep your floors looking pristine.
4. Vinyl Floors are Clean and Fast to Install
Vinyl floor installation is also much less messy than ‘wet’ tiling, wherein tile cement must be mixed fresh and used to lay and set ceramic or stone tile in place. By contrast, vinyl laying is completely dry with the small exception of some silicone sealant we use to finish and seal the edges cleanly.
5. Vinyl Floors Allow Comfort and Noise Reduction
Vinyl flooring doesn't just excel in aesthetics and durability; it also offers a comfortable underfoot feel. Its slight cushioning effect can make standing and walking more pleasant, especially for long periods. Additionally, vinyl's acoustic properties help reduce noise transmission, creating a quieter and more peaceful living environment.
6. Budget-Friendly Luxury
Vinyl floor finishes provide an affordable alternative to premium flooring materials like marble or hardwood, allowing you to achieve a luxurious look without breaking the bank. Vinyl floors are seamless with no visible grout lines, creating a nice and continuous floor surface. The cost-effectiveness of vinyl, combined with its longevity, makes it an excellent investment in your home's value.
7. Environmental Considerations
Many vinyl flooring options today are designed with eco-friendliness in mind. Look for vinyl products that are certified low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) and made from recycled or renewable materials. This way, you can enjoy your new floors while minimizing your environmental footprint.
In conclusion, vinyl floor finishes have redefined the possibilities of flooring for Singaporean homeowners. Their versatility, durability, and affordability make them an excellent choice for various areas of your home. As your trusted renovation contractor, we're here to guide you through the exciting world of vinyl flooring and help you create a space that reflects your style and values.
