Kitchen Flooring- vinyls suitable??

G'nite all (that was fun)!


Ash.

Hi Jola...well I am getting Karndean vinyl flooring for my kitchen and dining area..I was very skeptical at first but having a cousin work there somehow convinced me to put it in my house..very impressed with the designs and quality of their products...what convinced me were - very low maintenance, no creaking, chipping, cracking and very slight fading in extreme areas of sunlight. The other good thing is their flooring is a lot warmer to the touch than most natural surfaces.... They also offer a 20 year guarantee. Do check out their showroom and you will be amazed at their design replications!

I decided on the wood finish - http://www.karndean.com/products_detail ... ue&id=1304 in Hickory Peppercorn.

It will look like this finish -

[quote="Michelle"]I must say Karndean is one of my favourite vinyl floorings.

This is commercial grade flooring, great if you have pets and husbands.

Hahhaha...thats exactly what I have!!!!!

One is one isnt..I will let you take a guess

Glad Im not your husband.

I just assumed.

I went to Andersons and have decided to go with commercial sheet vinyl as I don't want a timber look. Karndean is nice, I had them send a few samples but just couldn't find anything perfect to match in their tile look.

I wanted a light coloured vinyl so decided to go with the real commercial stuff to be safe. I think its about the same price anyway.

I think the one I am looking at is Tarkett compact homogeneous "IQ | Eminent 2.0mm Light Beige" but need to go back to the store to double check the brand.

I have some time so something else may come out before I need to decide.

You want be sorry with Tarkett, VERY durable flooring!

A little more expensive….but well worth your purchase.
Most people won't pay that for a vinyl flooring, but what they don’t realise is how LONG its going to last them.

Is it a 10 year warranty?

Glade to hear it and well done, you will be very happy.

Now…. do you need a rolled up newspaper?

I think you need more than a rolled up newspaper…..

What stamina you must have!

What colour did you get, or is it in the link?
