Benefits of Using Cork As a Flooring Material

Here are some benefits of installing cork floors.

Noise Reduction

The natural cork will reduce the transmission of noise through the floor to a lower level of the home. It cuts down on noises echoing through the home as well, creating a more relaxing environment for everyone.

Style

Our nutbrown style cork floors deliver warmth and beautiful colors to any room of the home. The tiles have a mixture of light browns, medium browns, and darker colors, all in a swirl pattern that gives cork its natural beauty.

Natural Materials

Cork represents an environmentally-friendly material, as it consists of the natural bark of a cork oak tree. Even after people harvest the bark, it will grow back, allowing the tree to continue to thrive.

Using a cork flooring can help families maintain a healthy environment in the home. When used as a flooring, the surface finish on the cork will prevent dust, mold, and germs from penetrating the floor.

After the floor’s useful lifespan expires, installers potentially are able to recycle the cork into other products that use ground cork. Cork also naturally biodegrades after its useful lifespan ends.

Comfort

Cork’s natural elasticity makes walking across the floor extremely comfortable. Unlike hard flooring, it doesn’t create problems like sore lower body joints for homeowners who are standing or sitting on the floor for long periods of time.

Durability

Our rectangular cork tiles include a three-year manufacturer’s warranty. These tiles stand up to everyday wear far better than older types of cork flooring, resisting scratches and scuffs.

Cost Effective Floors

Because of the ease of installation and the durability level, installing these floor tiles will yield a smart investment well into the future with a relatively low starting price.

Our tiles cost less than $5 per square foot, and there’s no need to spend extra money on glue or other items to complete the installation, unless the subfloor requires an underlayment.

Cork is not as cheap as some other types of flooring, but its warmth and durability make it an excellent choice as a budget-friendly project.

Tips for Installing Cork Floors

These tiles do not take very long to install. The majority of homeowners can handle the layout on their own without the added expense of hiring a professional.

This cork laminate flooring includes a CorkLoc installation system, which allows the tiles to connect to each other securely without the need for adding glue. The CorkLoc system has a slight tongue and groove installation design, which connects the tiles quickly and securely.

Most rooms will not need an underlayment prior to installation of the cork tiling. As long as the plywood subfloor is flat and level, the cork tiles can go directly over the top.

If installing these tiles in an area where moisture in the subfloor may be a problem, such as over concrete, adding thin polyethylene sheeting as an underlayment is a smart idea.

Start the install by placing the first tile in a corner of the room. Use 1/2-inch spacers along the edge nearest the wall to allow for natural expansion of the cork during changes in temperature and humidity levels.

Pop the tiles together along the row. When reaching the far wall or another barrier, the installer will need to cut the tiles to fit. Be sure to account for the 1/2-inch expansion gap when making the measurements and cuts.

Cut the cork laminate flooring with a sharp utility knife. When laying out the next row of tiles, avoid having the seams on the short ends of the tiles line up from row to row. Stagger the ends of the tiles to avoid this problem.
