A practical alternative to ceramic tile

Luxury vinyl tile gives you the look of stone, ceramic, or marble without the cold underfoot feel, cracked grout, or broken dishes. East Texas Floor Source installs LVT throughout East Texas in kitchens, bathrooms, entryways, and mudrooms - the rooms that take the brunt of muddy boots and wet dog paws on a working property.

Our LVT carries the indoor-air-quality certifications homeowners ask about most - FloorScore and CARB Phase II for low formaldehyde emissions - which matters if anyone in the house deals with allergies or asthma.

A practical alternative to ceramic tile

Grouted, ungrouted, or click LVT

LVT installs a few different ways, and the right method comes down to your subfloor and the look you're after.

  • Grouted LVT - reads like real ceramic, complete with grout lines. Great for higher-end kitchens and bathrooms.
  • Ungrouted LVT - tight seams with no grout to maintain, for a clean, consistent look through the whole house.
  • Click LVT - floats over the subfloor for the fastest install, good for retrofits over an existing slab.
  • Glue-down LVT - the most solid feel underfoot, our pick for high-traffic homes and small commercial spaces.

Why LVT wins over ceramic in most homes

LVT looks like stone and tile but feels softer, warmer, and quieter to walk on. It's also more forgiving if you drop a dish, and sealed LVT grout resists staining far better than traditional cement grout does. For families and folks with pets, LVT solves most of the everyday complaints about ceramic without giving up the upscale look.

Why LVT wins over ceramic in most homes

How we install LVT

We start by flattening the subfloor - skip that step and every dip telegraphs straight through the tile. From there we dry-lay the pattern to confirm placement, install with the right adhesive or click system for your product, and finish with sealed grout where it's used and color-matched transitions into adjacent rooms.

How we install LVT

Vinyl Floor Tiles - frequently asked questions

We use a flexible, polymer-modified grout made specifically for LVT - it moves with the floor instead of cracking, and it's sealed to resist staining far better than traditional cement grout.

That's one of its best uses. It's waterproof, wipes clean easily, and won't crack if you drop a cast-iron skillet on it.

No - LVT has a slightly soft, warmer feel underfoot, and it works well over radiant heat if you want the floor genuinely warm in winter.

Quality LVT with a 22-mil or thicker wear layer typically lasts 20-25 years in a home. Commercial-grade LVT in a small business setting usually runs 15-20 years even under heavier daily traffic.
