How do I prevent scratches in my floor?
Our LVT floors are durable, high-quality and sturdy. Of course, you'd like to keep it that way. You can! We recommend the use of soft chair caps and wheels, Scratch no more and cleaning mats.
In addition, treating the floor, properly, is essential. For best results, we recommend the products of James.

Can I use any cleaning product on my LVT floor?
No, you can't! And never use household cleaners like benzene, turpentine, nail varnish remover or sticker remover; these will damage the floor and leave a dull spot that will never go away.
Belakos recommends James products for keeping Belakos LVT beautiful.

Is an underlay needed before installing Rigid Click LVT?

Are there phthalates in Belakos LVT?

What is the difference between herringbone, Chevron and Chevron wave?
The Chevron is known for the 45-degree angle at which the floor is installed. Fun fact: the difference between the herringbone pattern and the Chevron lies in the angle of the installation pattern. In a herringbone pattern, this angle is 90 degrees.
The Chevron can also be installed in a Chevron wave. In this case, a 135-degree angle is used in the installation pattern, creating a subtler and softer effect compared to the classic Chevron.
SEEN FROM DIFFERENT ANGLES
So the angle at which a floor is laid affects its appearance. In general, we see that people who want a striking, yet calm-looking laying pattern opt for the Chevron.
If, on the other hand, you have very large rooms that could use some solidity, herringbone is another interesting choice.
And the Chevron wave? It provides the golden mean.
Check the online catalogue to see what colours these products are available in.
Floor first, then the kitchen, or the other way around?
You can always choose to install the kitchen first and then the floor. This way, you will need to purchase fewer square meters of flooring, and in general, a kitchen is replaced less frequently than a floor. So, it all depends on what you prefer!
If you have chosen a Belakos Rigid Click floor and want to install it, it is important to place the kitchen first and then the floor. If the kitchen is heavy and ends up positioned at the edge of the click connection, pressure can build up on the joint, causing it to snap. That’s why the kitchen should be installed first, followed by the click floor.
If you have chosen a Belakos Dryback PVC floor, it doesn’t matter—you can install a kitchen on top of it without any issues.

Can I lay a LVT floor myself?
A GOOD START IS EVERYTHING
When it comes to preserving a floor, a good start is worth everything.
Laying a floor requires a good, level surface. After all, you can only form a solid foundation if your preparation is tight, as well as level.
A subfloor is indispensable.
So are good laying instructions.
Naturally, you will find all the necessary information on our website.
Laying your own LVT floor? Honestly?
It is best to let an expert lay your floor. With a lot of sales points in Europe, there is always one in your area. Then you can be sure of a well-laid floor.
An LVT floor and underfloor heating
Combine Belakos LVT with underfloor heating for a comfortable and energy-efficient solution.
Both Rigid Click and Dryback LVT floors are suitable for use with underfloor heating. However, a Dryback (glued) LVT floor conducts heat more efficiently because the planks are thinner than Rigid Click planks, allowing more heat to pass through.
We do not recommend electric underfloor heating or infrared underfloor heating under a Belakos LVT floor. Choose an alternative heating option to fully enjoy your Belakos floor.
If electric underfloor heating is necessary, it must be covered with at least 9 mm of suitable leveling compound. Direct contact with electric underfloor heating must be avoided. The surface temperature must not exceed 27°C.
Installation period: Wait 72 hours after installing Dryback PVC and 48 hours after installing Click LVT before turning on the underfloor heating.
Gradual heating: Increase the underfloor heating temperature gradually, in steps of 5°C per day, until the standard surface temperature is reached. The maximum screed temperature must not exceed 27°C.
Our retailers are happy to tell you more about this. Find your nearest point of sale at www.belakos.nl.

I have a stain in my carpet, now what?
Treat the stain immediately with water. For this, you will need a white, cotton terry towel and water. Then follow these steps:
First remove the solids as much as possible with a spoon.
Immediately wet a white, cotton terry towel with cold water, wring it out and place it flat on the stain.
Leave the terry towel on, without spiking. If the towel becomes saturated, replace it as described above. Then leave the towel until it is completely dry.
