SPC Flooring: Unmatched Durability and Style
At Carpet Style, we bring you the latest innovation in flooring with our premium SPC flooring options.
SPC flooring has revolutionised the industry, offering exceptional durability and stunning aesthetics.
Unlike other click system floor coverings which are made from 100% PVC, SPC features a rigid core of PVC (polymers) and stone powder. This extra layer makes it heavier, more durable, and stable.
Below, we take a look at some of the reasons why SPC flooring is rapidly gaining popularity among homeowners and businesses in Nottingham:
- Unrivalled Durability: SPC flooring is engineered to withstand heavy foot traffic and resist impacts, making it an ideal choice for high-traffic areas, such as commercial spaces, hallways, and living rooms. Its rigid core provides stability and prevents indentations from heavy furniture or appliances.
- Superior Water and Moisture Resistance: With its unique composition, SPC flooring is 100% waterproof, making it perfect for areas prone to moisture, including kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. Unlike traditional hardwood, vinyl, or laminate flooring, SPC flooring will not warp or swell when exposed to water.
- Authentic Wood and Stone Look: Our SPC flooring captures the natural beauty of wood and stone, faithfully replicating their intricate patterns and textures. Whether you desire the warmth of oak or the elegance of marble, Carpet Style offers a wide range of designs to suit your space and aesthetic preferences.
- Easy Maintenance: SPC flooring requires minimal maintenance, saving you valuable time and effort. Its non-porous surface resists stains, spills, and scratches, ensuring your floors remain beautiful for years to come. Regular sweeping and occasional damp mopping is all it takes to keep your SPC floors in Nottingham looking pristine.
- Swift and Hassle-Free Installation: Our team of skilled installers at Carpet Style is well-versed in the efficient installation of SPC flooring. We’ll use a Stanley knife to cut the planks to size and the click-and-lock mechanism allows for easy installation, reducing the time and disruption associated with traditional flooring methods. We guarantee a seamless installation process, completing your project promptly and to the highest standards.
Comparing SPC Flooring to Dryback LVT Floorin
When it comes to dryback luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and SPC flooring, Nottingham has more than its fair share of options, thanks to our local carpet shop.
While both SPC and dryback LVT flooring offer remarkable benefits, they differ in certain aspects.
Let’s explore how these two options compare:
Room suitability
Both LVT and SPC flooring come in a choice of thicknesses and can be used throughout the entire home or office. However, SPC is more suitable for high-traffic areas and rooms that are prone to moisture (i.e. bathrooms and kitchens). LVT options tend to suit living rooms, dining rooms, and other areas where comfort is key.
Installation method
SPC flooring features a floating installation method, where the planks easily “click” together, forming a stable and secure surface. On the other hand, dryback LVT flooring requires adhesive for a glued installation, which can be more time-consuming and may involve additional preparation.
Subfloor compatibility
SPC flooring is more forgiving when it comes to subfloor imperfections due to its rigid core. It can be installed directly over existing floors, including tile, concrete, or wood, without the need for extensive subfloor preparation. Dryback LVT flooring may require a smoother subfloor for optimal results.
Stability and durability
SPC flooring’s rigid core provides enhanced stability and durability, ensuring minimal expansion or contraction with changes in temperature and humidity. Dryback LVT flooring, while durable, may be more prone to expansion and contraction, especially in extreme temperature conditions.
Comfort and noise reduction
Thanks to SPC flooring’s high-density layer, it offers better noise insulation than LVT flooring, absorbing the sound of footsteps, moving furniture, conversations, or outside noise. SPC floors also provide a more substantial feel underfoot – as opposed to luxury vinyl tile which is softer – but an underlay will provide added comfort.
