    Are the everyday oaks still the customers favoured choice or are we seeing greys, blacks and whites on the increase? Is the black tile still number 1 or are the greys coming in?

    Debate please people !!

    The traditional wood colours are still very popular but I do loads of grey & black woodplank & tiles !
    Grey is the new beige IMO

    White wood planks have become popular for us. But the big change I e noticed recently is that alot of people are going for rectangle tiles and brick work effect. Been doing a lot of it in the knightile/opus

    I've noticed our greys are going really well, along with white wood and more grey tiles rather than black....thanks forum peeps.

    I'd love some samples of mflor. Reckon I could push that more than Karndean. Have a job 40m2 coming up next month , be nice to show them an alternative to karndean. Any chance ?

    Can anyone give some advice. Customer asked me about 200 sq/m of lvt clic for a restaurant. All I know is the main floor area was meant to be ultimate pacific wood clic. I can use an alternative as long as its hard wearing. Then I need black and white tiles for another area which I could use lots of different things. Lvt specialists fire me some advice please.

    Hi lvt man. I only got asked tonight. Basically a firm had quoted and it had been accepted, now they have pulled out. Restaurant has to be open on 3 rd September and the sample the builder has is what I wrote above. Hopefully I'll see the original quote tomorrow and looking at te job Friday. Need to try and sort it as I'm away 17th aug-1st September. What we be the benefits of the looselay?

    The main benefit is that you can lay it straight onto most subfloors and its really easy to fit. I haven't done any of the click lvt so can't really comment on them. Atleast with the karndean it's a big name and you know what your getting. I've seen a lot of the company's doing click lvt come and go and that's why we haven't bothered with it. Very big tiles and planks makes it nice to fit in big areas.

    The floor is being sorted by a screeding firm so that shouldn't be an issue. The sample I had was very thick compared to normal lvt, is that how the clic ones are? It needs to be hard wearing so if I suggest karndean top end stuff. Any other thoughts people.
