Armstrong Vinyl Flooring

Armstrong vinyl flooring offers a number of flexible and affordable flooring solutions for commercial and residential applications. Based in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Armstrong produces a wide range of flooring, cabinet, and ceiling products.

Armstrong vinyl sheet flooring is available in many styles and colors to suit the design and function of almost any room. From traditional to contemporary, with lines like Natural Fusion, StrataMax, and CushionStep, Armstrong provides durability, easy care, and a more natural look and feel to their sheet flooring products.

There are two basic varieties of sheeting available that have either a felt or fiberglass backing. Felt is more common, but the newer fiberglass construction offers more of a cushion, giving a softer feel to the floor and some give that can make it easier to stand on the floor for long periods. This is a particularly nice feature for people with back or joint problems, the elderly, and young children.

Vinyl sheet flooring is one of the least expensive and versatile flooring materials on the market. Armstrong’s vinyl sheet flooring is available in six and 12 foot widths, which makes it easier to install without multiple seams. Having fewer seams helps to maintain the integrity of the floor’s design while keeping installation times and labor costs down. Sheet vinyl also needs very little maintenance and is water resistant. This makes it a good choice for kitchens, bathrooms, mudrooms, and entryways that see lots of foot traffic and are susceptible to frequent spills and soiling.

Although Armstrong’s broad design line of vinyl sheet flooring, its wide measurements, and competitive pricing make it a good flooring choice in most circumstances, there are a couple of things you should consider before you buy.

Handling a vinyl sheet flooring installation yourself can be challenging. Even though it can be installed over almost any type of subfloor, measuring and cutting correctly is critical. It’s probably not a job for the beginning do-it-yourselfer.

If you want to increase the value of your home with a flooring upgrade, a natural product, like tile, wood, or stone is more likely to give you the results you want than vinyl will.

Like vinyl sheet flooring, vinyl tile is a good value. It comes in a wide variety of colors and styles, and it has the added advantage of being very easy to install. If you want to transform a room in an afternoon, vinyl tile will help you do that. It’s a peel ‘n stick solution that is available in traditional 12” x 12” squares as well as planks for a wood flooring look, and larger formats. Vinyl tile can mimic natural materials, like stone, or have a more elaborate pattern, like classic ceramic tiles. It’s also a low maintenance choice.

Typically, vinyl tile flooring has a lower useful life than other flooring materials. Although the tiles are moisture resistant, liquids can seep into the seams and undermine the adhesive and even the subfloor underneath. Vinyl tile flooring can tear too, particularly in well traveled areas.

Armstrong vinyl flooring offers good value, flexible installation options, and extensive design choices. When shopping for flooring, make a drawing of your room with measurements, and take samples of wallpaper, paint and drapery fabrics to help select the right product for your lifestyle and decor.
