Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is a durable, versatile flooring that doesn't skimp on design. It specializes in mimicking the look of real wood, tile or stone without maxing out your budget. It isn't all just smoke and mirrors though: it can perform! LVP and LVT has added benefits of resilient strength and a nonporous vinyl makeup, withstanding the daily stresses put on your floor.
Referred to as "resilient", vinyl is much more than old sheet flooring. New technology has created hundreds of products that simulate the beauty of tile, wood and stone floors. Vinyl withstands the daily stresses that high traffic can put on a floor. It is also very easy to maintain, making it a popular choice for basements, laundry rooms, kitchens and bathrooms.
Choosing hardwood for your home is a signature of your style, warmth and luxury. The durability and beauty combine to make hardwoods and excellent choice for both high traffic areas and elegant entertainment rooms. Hardwood floors add value to your home and are an excellent selling point for home resale if maintained well.

I cannot say enough great things about Apex and the incredible service from Lowell. I went in looking for tiles for my bathroom and was completely clueless about what I was doing.
Lowell was extremely patient and thorough in answering all my questions and helping me to select tiles that fit my vision and budget.
I would recommend Apex to anyone needing tile or flooring.

Looks like it turned into a little Chicago art museum, I think! Please don't quote me but you may correct me on this.

My experience with Apex was extremely satisfactory and I would recommend them highly.
I recently re-tiled a bathroom and had very specific criteria about the various tiles that I wanted to use. I visited many tile stores in Chicago but was unable to find the exact combination that I wanted until I tried Apex. While my success at Apex might also have been due to a better selection, I believe that it mainly resulted more from the owner's knowledge of and familiarity with his stock. I was able tell him what I was wanting and he immediately offered a few options. He was the only salesperson that was

I was referred to Apex from a colleague. I called to see if I could get a design consultation, and was met with a rude and short conversation. Hoping I merely caught someone on a bad day (we all have those!), I visited their store anyway.
Waste of time.
I felt I was somehow a burden on their day as they had more important matters to attend to. Overall experience left me feeling small and insignificant. Needless to say, I didn't use them.
I decided to hire local contractor who referred me to a wonderful showroom filled with helpful and courteous salespeople. Trust the pros!

I called to get flooring installed in a few houses and he said "not interested" and then hung up the phone, we might have been on the phone for 45 seconds. Not sure what kind of flooring company treats customers like this?

I purchased stranded bamboo flooring and subway tile from Lowell Krischer at Apex Flooring for my condo renovation. Lowell is a straight shooter and his service is excellent. Apex is a local store, no big box, and Lowell was there everytime I went in and everytime I called. There was an issue with my flooring order ( not Lowell's fault, it was the manufacturer) and Lowell was proactive and kept me informed. I would recommend Apex to anyone.

The owner, Lowell, is a real nice guy , is very low pressure and easy to deal with. Ive been to all the big tile stores and I much rather do my flooring shopping here. For a neighborhood store, he has a tremendous selection and his prices are as good as you'll find at other flooring stores. you might be able to find cheaper stuff at the big box home improvement stores but Apex has better quality stuff and a bigger selection.
