How long does resilient flooring last? Quality luxury vinyl plank typically lasts 15 to 25 years with normal use. Floor & More sees that range hold up consistently across Denver Metro homes.
What Affects the Lifespan
Wear layer thickness makes the biggest difference. A 12 or 20 mil wear layer resists scratches and fading far longer than a thin 6 mil layer found on cheaper products. Sun exposure and foot traffic also play a role.
Signs It’s Time to Replace
Peeling seams, visible wear-through to the printed layer, or a spongy feel underfoot are all signs the floor has reached the end of its life. Floor & More can inspect an aging floor and tell you honestly whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
Getting the Most Life Out of Your Floor
Using furniture pads, keeping grit swept up, and avoiding harsh ammonia-based cleaners all extend the life of resilient flooring. Floor & More walks every customer through simple care tips at the end of installation.
