Like sheet, tile is a composite material. A thin PVC plastic core is fused to fiberglass or felt backing layer. A clear wear layer protects the image layer. Tiles are installed piece by piece after layout lines are drawn onto the subfloor. Two types of tiles are available - glue-down and peel-and-stick. The floor is easy to maintain since damaged tiles can be replaced.
Most luxury vinyl flooring is clicked and locked together to construct a floor that floats over the subfloor. In contrast, standard is usually glued to the subfloor. The entire sheet can be glued down or the sheet can be glued around the perimeter only. Loose lay vinyl, which relies on friction to stay in place, is installed without adhesive. This application is best for small rooms.
