Prices vary depending on floor size, quality, and job complexity.

Which is better, LVP or LVT?

Both are types of luxury vinyl, but LVP (planks) gives a wood look finish while LVT (tiles) mimics stone or ceramic. LVP is often preferred for larger floor areas, LVT for bathrooms or kitchens.

Can you lay vinyl straight onto floorboards?

You can, but it’s not ideal. Most fitters will suggest installing a smooth subfloor (like plywood or foam underlay) first, especially for LVT.

Do you need underlay for vinyl or LVT?

Sometimes. Sheet vinyl often doesn’t need it, but clicklock or floating LVT usually does. Always check the product spec.

Is vinyl flooring glued down?

It depends. Sheet vinyl may be glued or loose. LVT might use click lock, glue down, or self adhesive formats.

Is LVT better than laminate?

LVT is more water resistant, warmer underfoot, and better for high traffic or wet areas. Laminate can be cheaper but isn’t as forgiving with moisture.

Does vinyl flooring work with underfloor heating?

Yes, vinyl works well with [underfloor heating](https://www.checkatrade.com/blog/cost-guides/underfloor-heating-cost/), although some designs work better than others. Always check the product guidelines before purchasing.

How long does it take to fit LVT?

A standard room might take 1 day. Larger areas or herringbone layouts may take 2 - 3 days.

Do carpet fitters install vinyl flooring?

Some do, but not all. It’s a good idea to ask upfront or search specifically for [vinyl flooring fitters near me](https://www.checkatrade.com/) or LVT floor installers in [Location] to find someone experienced with the type of floor you’re laying.

What’s the best flooring for bathrooms, LVT or vinyl?

Both are great for bathrooms. Sheet vinyl is more budget friendly and water resistant. LVT is more durable and stylish, with a high end look. For wet rooms or very damp spaces, always check it’s rated for high moisture areas.

Does LVT flooring need expansion gaps?

Yes. Like most flooring, LVT needs expansion gaps (usually around 5mm) to prevent buckling or warping as temperatures change. Your fitter will account for this during installation.

Can vinyl flooring go over tiles?

Yes, if the tiles are level and in good condition. A vinyl flooring installer might still recommend a levelling compound or underlay to create a smoother surface and avoid ridges showing through.

How thick should the underlay be for vinyl flooring?

If needed, the underlay for vinyl or LVT is usually 2 - 5mm thick. It depends on the flooring type and subfloor underneath. Too thick and it can cause movement; always check the flooring manufacturer’s guidance.

What’s the difference between glued down and click lock LVT?

__Glue down LVT__ is fixed directly to the subfloor and is better for high traffic areas and commercial spaces. __Click lock LVT__ clicks together like laminate and floats over underlay, and is quicker to install and easier to replace later.

Vinyl flooring in Newport: Homeowners vs Renters

If you own your home:

You can choose the vinyl flooring, hire a fitter, and decide the spec. Keep hold of receipts and warranties.
If you're planning to sell, it might be worth choosing a style that adds value (like herringbone LVT or waterproof flooring).

If you rent your home:

Start with your landlord or letting agent. They might cover the cost or want to use their own vinyl flooring installer.
If you're footing the bill, make sure you get written permission first, and clarify what happens when you move out.
Either way, it’s worth finding a flooring fitter who’s experienced in tenanted properties or can liaise directly with landlords.
