Product Information

Full details

Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl Black Slate flooring is an ideal solution for homeowners and renovators looking for a sophisticated, stone-effect floor that combines aesthetic appeal with heavy-duty performance. It is perfect for high-traffic areas, kitchens, and bathrooms due to its 100% waterproof construction and scratch-resistant top layer, though users should be mindful that despite its durability, heavy localized impact on sharp edges can still lead to surface marring over time.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I install this over existing ceramic tiles?

Yes, provided the ceramic tiles are level, clean, and have no loose sections. Large grout lines should be filled.

Is this flooring suitable for a bathroom?

Yes, the 100% waterproof construction makes it an excellent choice for bathrooms and laundry rooms.

Do I need an extra underlay?

No, this product comes with an integrated underlay, which is designed to provide optimal acoustic and thermal performance.

Can I use steam mops on this floor?

It is not recommended to use steam mops, as excessive heat can impact the integrity of the vinyl layers.

Does it need to be acclimated?

Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines regarding acclimation, typically allowing the boxes to sit in the room for 24-48 hours before installation.

Troubleshooting

Gaps appearing between planks

Check that the Uniclic system is fully engaged; ensure there is adequate expansion gap around the perimeter of the room.

Floor feels bouncy or uneven

Verify that the subfloor meets flatness requirements; large depressions in the subfloor may need a leveling compound.

Surface appears dull or cloudy

Avoid using harsh soaps or detergents that leave a residue; stick to recommended PH-neutral LVT cleaners.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable and scratch-resistant surface
  • 100% waterproof performance for wet areas
  • Easy and fast installation with the Uniclic system
  • Integrated underlay reduces installation time and noise
  • Authentic Black Slate tile visual appeal

Cons

  • Not suitable for outdoor installation
  • Requires a relatively level subfloor despite rigid construction
  • Professional installation recommended for complex room layouts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For installation, ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and flat. While the rigid core allows for minor subfloor irregularities, large gaps or bumps should be leveled out beforehand. Use the Uniclic system by angling the tongue into the groove and clicking it into place; no adhesives are required. For maintenance, a dry microfiber mop or a vacuum with a soft brush attachment is sufficient for daily cleaning. For deeper cleaning, use a PH-neutral floor cleaner approved for luxury vinyl tile (LVT). Avoid using steam cleaners, as high heat and excessive moisture can damage the locking mechanisms over time.
