Vinyl Flooring: The Rubber Flooring Is Updated

Checkerboard vinyl tiles

Vinyl flooring is back to the fore for many reasons, but mainly because it is cheap, waterproof, easy to clean, highly resistant and can also be assembled by yourself with a minimum of care. It is still sold in self-adhesive rolls, but today there is a new version in tile format that has transformed the meaning and aesthetics of the formerly called "rubber floors". One of the most successful models for its timeless versatility is the black and white checkerboard, like the image marketed by the Armstrong company.

Vinyl tiles offer the advantage that if there is a break or damage, it is enough to change the affected area without having to raise half the floor or put patches, although they require that the surface be previously well smoothed and level, even to a greater extent. than roll option. The positive part is that if in the future we decide to put another type of floor (tile, parquet, flooring ...), the adhesive of the tiles does not leave the surface so sticky and the work that the new material requires will always be easier and more bearable. It is a good alternative for student flats, temporary stays or rooms for children who have to adapt to their growth and change of tastes:

Models that simulate the appearance of hydraulic tiles, which are back in vogue thanks to their retro industrial aesthetics; But if we cannot invest in an original recovered period tile floor, its vinyl version will help us achieve a similar effect at a much lower price and without maintenance, also contributing to give a touch current, romantic or bohemian to the bathroom or the dining room.

If one tends to a more classic, sober or elegant style, there are vinyl tile designs with a finish matte or textured that resemble traditional wooden and marble floors, although it is advisable to use them in rooms that receive enough natural light to prevent the room from appearing smaller due to the opacity and homogeneity of this flooring.
