The Vinyl Floor Seam Sealer To Protect Your LVP Investment
In this video, Charles addresses a common challenge faced by homeowners who have recently installed luxury vinyl plank flooring.
Reed’s Story: The Trouble with Unsealed Seams
Reed recently installed a snap-together vinyl plank floor. Unfortunately, the contractors did not apply any seam or perimeter sealer during the installation.
After only three months, Reed noticed swelling along the seams in several areas, a frustrating issue that often occurs when moisture penetrates the gaps between planks. Seeking to protect his investment, Reed reached out for a solution that could waterproof the floor’s seams, and a cleaning routine that didn’t require more equipment than his microfiber mop.
The Professional Solution for Waterproofing
To prevent further swelling and provide a reliable waterproof barrier, Charles recommends applying Luxury FloorSeal. By applying three or four thin coats across the entire surface, the sealer fills the seams and locks out moisture. This process not only protects the structural integrity of the planks, but also makes the floor much easier to maintain over time.
Daily Maintenance Made Easy
For ongoing care, Reed needed a cleaner that would work with his Swiffer-style mop. The recommended choice is Emerald Floor Maintainer, a concentrated, pH-neutral cleaner specifically designed to be safe for vinyl flooring. It can be easily diluted with water, and used with microfiber pads for a streak-free, clean finish every day.
