VINYL & LVT THE FULL PACKAGE
floorwise explains how its extensive range makes it easy and affordable to deliver customers a high-quality LVT installation from start to finish.
Luxury vinyl is flooring’s growth area with homes and businesses both embracing the product’s easy-living nature. Yet, as any experienced floor installer will know, making sure you give a high-quality LVT installation is not so easy and takes time, effort and expertise. Fortunately, with floorwise at your side you can be confident that your skills and expertise will be matched by tools, installation and finishing products that provide quality and floorwise’s famous value.
Quality tools are essential part of making the installation run as smoothly as possible. floorwise distributors across the UK, Ireland and Europe carry a comprehensive range of tools from the world’s best manufacturers. These include surface preparation tools such as the Flex Power Stripper, long handled scrapers, screeding and adhesive trowels, primer and aeration rollers, pin levellers and stirring stations, LVT laying equipment such as the large plank design cutter, LVT cutters, and small pressure and heavy duty 75kg rollers; there’s a tool for every job.
Every installer knows that an LVT installation will only ever be as good as the subfloor and so good preparation is key. Failure to ensure a smooth, flat and well-prepared substrate will compromise the installation in terms of appearance and potential failure. With the new products in the Pro-Screed line, floorwise is giving installers everything they need to prepare a floor to the exacting tolerances needed.
For a great problem-solver and time-saver, Pro-Screed Ultra is rapid setting smoothing and levelling compound that it is capable of receiving LVT floors in just three-hours. It can also be poured over old adhesive residue and DPMs and no priming is required on most subfloors. For subfloors that need a little more work, Pro-Screed Xtra is fibre-reinforced for extra strength and flexibility. It’s also moisture tolerant so can be used above or beneath DPMs. Just like Pro-Screed Ultra, Xtra has an install time of just three-hours, making it a true all-rounder.
With Dura for value and Feather for patch repairs, as well as the best-selling and award-winning Pro-Screed Gold, the Pro-Screed range can tackle all subfloor preparation requirements before laying an LVT floor.
When it comes to the job of sticking down, floorwise distributors offer a host of branded adhesive solutions for the job. With floorwise cartridge adhesives and sealants to help seal around the edges of LVT installations you can assured of right adhesive for the job.
For click-based installations, a suitable underlay beneath the LVT floor can help to combat worries about noise between floors or in the room. However, choose an underlay that’s too thick and the floor’s joints may well be compromised causing creaking, squeaking and eventual failure. The floorwise Acoustica range includes a variety of solutions that can help to improve sound quality while also supporting the floor.
While much of the focus in ensuring a lasting installation occurring beneath the floor where efforts are never seen,

there’s no doubt that what goes on top will make a statement about of the quality of workmanship and attention to detail elsewhere. Fortunately, with the recently updated Zenith and Max Reflections ranges, it’s easier than ever to achieve that fantastic finishing touch and the perfect match to door furniture, switches and sockets.
Installers can now choose Reflections in the new Brushed Black and Brushed Space Grey finishes, alongside the existing Brushed Steel Nickel and Chrome.

Along with 22 colours, the range gives the ability to manage more transitions and effectively delineate areas using colours, or to match flooring more closely.
