Vinyl Quality

Are there differences in the quality of different brands of vinyl flooring (sheets not tiles)? If so please provide the names of those of higher quality.

Thanks
Robert

Re: Vinyl Quality

Most retail stores have a wide selection of choices, complete with full info on the product. Best way to shop for it, is to approximate a budget 1st and then find the best deal.

This is only a 6 by 8 bath. Homeowner wants a good quality vinyl since the labor is the same.

Re: Vinyl Quality

All manufacturers have multiple qualities within their lines.

For a bath, I would start mid range for a urethane wear layer to make it easy to clean.
only buy higher end if the pattern is appealing.
