What’s the difference between luxury vinyl plank and luxury vinyl tile?


When you’re looking for a great luxury vinyl tile or plank floor covering, you’re sure to have lots of questions. Some homeowners want to know what the difference is between the two, and that is a question we are going to address in today’s post.

Luxury vinyl tile and plank are the same, but not really

Luxury vinyl plank and tile, also known as LVP and LVT, respectively, are excellent choices for stunning décor matches, outstanding performance and durability, and a lifespan that could easily reach 20 years with proper care. But there is one distinct difference between the two that might make one better for you than the other.

Vinyl plank offers the plank format, giving the appearance of natural wood planks, while vinyl tile offers the tile format, complete with authentic grouting if you choose. Both materials provide wood and stone appearances, with tile adding in the appearance of porcelain and ceramic tile.

The visuals are authentic and realistic, which means your guests may never know they’re not walking on the real thing. A top wear layer goes on to add outstanding durability, including stain, fade, and wear resistance that serves you well for years to come.
