FAQs

Is this LVT suitable for a bathroom?

Yes, the Expona Commercial Cool Grey Concrete Effect LVT is water-resistant and suitable for moisture-prone areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and hallways.

Can I install this myself?

While possible for experienced DIYers, the glue-down method requires a well-prepared subfloor and the correct application of vinyl adhesive. Professional installation is recommended for a flawless finish.

How do I clean this flooring?

Regular sweeping or vacuuming is sufficient for daily cleaning. For a deeper clean, use a damp mop with a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water.

What is the warranty period?

The Expona Commercial Cool Grey Concrete Effect LVT comes with a 10-year warranty.

Can I install this over existing flooring?

Yes, it can be installed over existing LVT or vinyl flooring, provided the original floor is well-adhered, level, and smooth. Ensure the subfloor preparation guidelines are met.

What are the dimensions of each tile?

The product description specifies a slim 2.5mm profile. Specific tile dimensions (length and width) would typically be found on the product packaging or detailed specification sheet.

Is this flooring slippery when wet?

No, this LVT is designed to be slip-resistant, offering enhanced safety even in damp conditions.

Troubleshooting

Tiles won't adhere properly

Ensure the subfloor is properly prepared (clean, dry, level) and the correct adhesive has been used and applied according to manufacturer instructions. Check acclimatisation time.

Gaps between tiles

Ensure tiles are laid firmly into the adhesive and pressed down evenly. Check if subfloor is level, as unevenness can cause gaps. Trim tiles precisely if needed.

Surface scratches or scuffs

Use furniture pads on all furniture legs. Avoid dragging heavy items. Clean the floor regularly to remove abrasive grit. Minor scratches may be buffed out with a specialised vinyl floor polish.

Discoloration or staining

Clean spills immediately. Use only pH-neutral cleaners recommended for vinyl. Avoid rubber-backed mats or certain types of furniture feet that can cause staining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, level, and smooth. Any imperfections may show through the LVT.
  2. Acclimatise the LVT tiles in the room for at least 24 hours before installation.
  3. Apply a suitable high-grab vinyl adhesive evenly to the subfloor using a notched trowel as recommended by the adhesive manufacturer.
  4. Lay the tiles firmly into the adhesive, ensuring no gaps and maintaining a consistent pattern.
  5. Use a hand roller to press down each tile firmly, ensuring a secure bond.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with underfloor heating systems (max temperature recommendations should be followed).
  • Suitable for installation over concrete, plywood, and existing LVT or vinyl flooring (if well-adhered and level).
  • Requires specific vinyl flooring adhesive; do not use generic glues.

Care:

  • Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and grit.
  • Wipe spills immediately with a damp cloth.
  • For deeper cleaning, use a damp mop with a pH-neutral cleaner suitable for vinyl flooring. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water.
