LooseLay Originals tiles bring stone and concrete looks to loose-lay vinyl. Each 500mm by 610mm tile is 4.5mm thick with a 0.55mm wear layer and a friction-grip backing, so it sits flat on a sound, smooth subfloor without full-spread glue and can be lifted and replaced on its own. Designs range from pale honed limestone to light and slate-grey concrete through to deep charcoal. The tile won’t swell, so spills and mopping are fine, and it feels warmer and quieter underfoot than ceramic. Water can still get beneath a loose-laid floor, so it is not a substitute for waterproofing, and big sunny windows may need adhesive and UV protection. Underfloor heating is fine up to a 27°C floor surface. Lifetime residential warranty, which the manufacturer defines as 35 years, subject to its installation and care conditions.

Will it suit your home?

Bathrooms & laundriesNot confirmed yet
Check with us before choosing this for a bathroom or laundry; water can travel under loose-laid planks, so it depends on the room.
Underfloor heatingWith conditions
Suits underfloor heating that keeps the floor surface at 27°C or below; avoid rubber-backed rugs, which can cause hot spots.
Sanding & refinishingNot applicable
Vinyl has a printed design layer under its wear layer, so it can't be sanded or refinished.
Pets & high trafficA good choice
A 0.55mm wear layer backed by a 15-year commercial warranty, so it suits pets and busy homes; use felt pads and castor cups.
Apartments (acoustic)Rating not confirmed
Vinyl on its own may not meet apartment noise rules, so strata will need test results for your exact floor; check with us first.
