A Guide to Cork Flooring


 
Home Improvement
Cork is a spongy, quality and durable material due to its descent from the bark of the cork oak tree. Installing glue down a cork tile is easily the best alternative for you if you are considering having floating floor tiles. Cork tiles are many in terms of variety as they are available in distinct colours for people’s preferences. It is your choice to therefore choose between lighter or deep tones. For very many years cork has been around. The tiles have been used in some of the most prestigious homes in the world. Even rich people love cork because of its ambience.

A Choice for Designers

Construction designers and architects are loving cork for the benefits it has on homeowners. Cork can be placed on both floors and subfloors as well. For example, you might have wooden floors which are spoilt and no longer attractive at all. In this case you can have floating cork flooring to cover up the entire floor. Cork has been used as a perfect scapegoat for poorly done floors. It is ideal for both residential and commercial buildings alike. The soft and smooth nature makes it ideal for the feet especially in residential houses where people don’t put on shoes often.

Installation

Installing glue down a cork tile can be done by either the homeowner or the construction company. However, when you do it yourself you shall have saved so much money. The glue can be placed on both concrete and wooden floors. All you have to do is ensure the surface is free from dirt, grease, wax or any other substance that might hinder smooth bonding of cork.

The Qualities

Cork is defined as hypoallergenic which means that it will not irritate asthmatic people in case of excess heat or when it catches fire. 90% of cork material is also gaseous matter making it one of the best insulators because of the generally low density. The gas in cork allows for easy contraction and expansion when it is pressured by seats or moving people. It would simply return to its original shape. The quality is also efficient as it ensures cork is a shock absorber. Anyone can therefore stand and walk on cork with ease.

The manufacturers always advise that you clean the cork first and let them rest for between 3-4 days. This should be at room temperature conditions and fairly normal humidity levels. Once you remove the sealing of the tiles packaging ensure you follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully and keenly. It is preferable that you store cork in the same room condition that they will be laid.
