Luxury vinyl for pets

Luxury vinyl flooring, including luxury vinyl tile, or luxury vinyl plank flooring, is a fantastic option if your family members include the four-legged kind. It’s a gorgeous alternative to hardwood flooring or ceramic tile and doesn’t have any of the drawbacks of carpet. Some of the benefits of luxury vinyl for you and your pets include:

• Scratch resistance means no claw marks or cats pulling up threads of carpet.
• Waterproof means no damage from accidents.
• Easy to clean up fur or accidents.
• More affordable than hardwood or tile.
