Amtico flooring

Imagine having the look of natural wood, stone, or even abstract designs right under your feet without the fuss of maintaining those materials. Amtico is a type of luxury vinyl tile (LVT) that’s built to last, which means you get the elegance without the hassle.

This flooring is designed to withstand the daily grind, from kids running around to pets doing their thing. You won't find it easily scratched or dented, making it perfect for busy households. Unlike stone or ceramic tiles, Amtico flooring is softer and warmer underfoot. It's got that bit of give, making it easier on your joints. Plus, it’s quieter. No more echoing footsteps throughout the house.

Laying Amtico flooring

You can install Amtico flooring over most existing floors, including concrete and wood. If you're the handy type, the glue down system will give you a solid, permanent finish. Just slap some adhesive on, lay the tiles, and you’re set.

Prefer something a bit quicker and less messy? The click lock system’s your best mate. It’s as simple as it sounds. Each tile clicks into place with the next, no glue, no fuss. Perfect for a weekend project. You don’t even need to be a DIY whiz to pull it off. Just a bit of patience and a few basic tools, and you’ll have a new floor in no time.

Amtico isn’t just about practicality; it’s a playground for your creativity. Want the look of hardwood but in a herringbone pattern? Go for it. Fancy mixing stone and wood effects for a unique look? Nothing's stopping you. The flexibility in design means you can really put your stamp on your space, mixing and matching patterns and colours to create something truly unique.

Is Amtico flooring expensive?

Well, it’s a bit like asking if a good meal out is pricey. It depends on what you’re comparing it to and what you’re after. Amtico sits in the mid-to-high range for flooring, but you get what you pay for. You’re looking at around £30 to £50 per square metre just for the tiles themselves. That’s before installation, mind you. If you’re going the DIY route, you might save a bit, but if you’re hiring a pro, tack on another £10 to £20 per square metre for fitting.

For an average room of, say, 20 square metres, you’re talking about £600 to £1,000 for the materials. Add in the installation costs, and you’re looking at a total of around £800 to £1,400. It’s not pocket change, but considering the quality, durability, and the wow factor it brings to your home, it’s a sound investment.

And remember, with Amtico, you're getting something that's going to last. Unlike cheaper options that might need replacing sooner, Amtico's built to withstand daily wear and tear, so you won’t be shelling out for new flooring anytime soon. Plus, it’s low maintenance, which means you save on upkeep too.
