Get a Free Estimate Call 904-262-7304Vinyl flooring installation is one of the most common jobs we do in Jacksonville. Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and luxury vinyl tile (LVT) have become popular because they combine durability, waterproof performance, comfort, and modern style.
Florida homes deal with humidity, moisture, pets, kids, sand, and heavy foot traffic. LVP flooring handles these conditions better than many traditional flooring materials.
Gator Carpet and Tile installs luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout Jacksonville and Northeast Florida for homeowners, landlords, property managers, and commercial properties.
LVP flooring works well in almost every room of the house and offers the appearance of hardwood flooring with added durability and moisture resistance.
Waterproof flooring protection for spills, moisture, and heavy traffic.
Moisture-resistant flooring perfect for Florida bathrooms and humidity.
Durable flooring designed for long-term wear and easier maintenance.
Flooring that handles scratches, accidents, and active pets better than many alternatives.
Luxury vinyl comes in two shapes. LVP (luxury vinyl plank) is long, narrow planks printed to look like wood. LVT (luxury vinyl tile) is square or rectangular pieces printed to look like stone or ceramic tile.
Under the surface they are the same kind of floor. Rigid-core versions of both are waterproof, both handle pets and Florida humidity, and we install them the same way. The choice is about the look.
Pick plank if you want a wood floor look through living areas and bedrooms. Pick LVT if you want a tile look in a bathroom, laundry room or entry without the weight and grout lines of real tile. Still deciding between vinyl and real tile? Read tile vs LVP in Florida.
Not every product labeled "vinyl" is waterproof. Some planks have a wood-fiber core that swells when wet. Our guide on waterproof vs water-resistant flooring explains how to tell them apart.
No guessing and no surprise add-ons. Here is how a vinyl flooring job runs with Gator Carpet and Tile.
We measure your rooms in about 20 minutes, check the subfloor, and bring samples. You get a written price at the measure.
Choose plank or tile look, color and grade. You can also compare samples at our Philips Highway showroom.
We move the furniture, handle standard floor prep and lay a vapor barrier over the slab. Any extra leveling is quoted before we start.
Our crew installs the floor, adds quarter round and transitions between rooms, and puts your furniture back. Most jobs take one to three days.
