Lavasteen Seamless Floor for the floor: comparison & selection guide
When considering a new floor, you're quickly faced with an endless list: tiles, vinyl, parquet, beton ciré, microcement, resin floors. Which suits your home, your lifestyle, your budget? A Lavasteen Seamless Floor isn't the only option — but for those wanting a floor that looks sleek, lasts for years and has a natural appearance, it's a remarkably good choice.
What distinguishes a Lavasteen Seamless Floor from other floors?
A Lavasteen Seamless Floor is neither tile nor plastic. It's a manually applied finishing system based on fine volcanic granules and an epoxy binder. The result: one continuous surface with natural depth and variation — not a smooth plastic look, but a calm, mineral appearance more reminiscent of concrete or natural stone.
Compared to the most common alternatives:
- Versus tiles: no grout lines that get dirty or grow mould, no transition strips — a calmer, more unified look.
- Versus standard resin floor (epoxy/PU): mineral appearance instead of glossy plastic look.
- Versus microcement: considerably harder and more wear-resistant — more suitable for heavily trafficked spaces.
- Versus parquet or vinyl: 100% waterproof and infinitely more scratch-resistant.
For which spaces is a Lavasteen Seamless Floor suitable?
The combination of hardness, waterproofing and natural appearance makes Lavasteen Seamless Floors broadly applicable. Particularly suitable for:
- Living rooms and open-plan kitchens where one continuous floor is desired.
- Hallways, corridors and entrances with intensive use.
- Workspaces, offices and hospitality venues.
- Spaces with underfloor heating.
Application over existing floors
A practical advantage of a Lavasteen Seamless Floor: in many situations you don't need to remove the existing floor first. With proper preparation (primer, possibly levelling compound) the system is applied over tiles, cement, anhydrite or stable timber subfloor. This saves demolition time, disposal costs and weeks of dust in the house.
Finishing with PU topcoat — maintenance and exceptions
The PU topcoat largely determines how easy your Lavasteen Seamless Floor is to maintain. Our PU topcoat is pore-filling and UV-stable: with multiple coats it partially fills the floor's natural texture, leaving a smoother surface that's easier to clean. Even cleaning with bleach is no problem — useful in kitchens, hallways or places where you really want to work hygienically.
Deciding on colour, finish and installation
Choosing a Lavasteen Seamless Floor is just the beginning. Then comes the colour (from light sand to deep anthracite), the finish (matt or satin sheen), and the question of whether you apply it yourself or have it installed.
