Advantages of Cork Tiles
by Alma Miller AuthorEspecially if
this is the first time you hear about cork flooring, probably you do not really
know much about the advantages that this option has to offer, regardless if you
would like to install it in your kitchen, basement or bathroom. First of all,
you should know that these cork tiles are meant to change your perspective on
flooring options due to the fact that it is so different from anything that you
can find on the market. An interesting advantage that you will benefit from in
this case is the fact that you can easily install it on your own.
This is
definitely not something that you are able to do when it comes to any other
flooring option that you may come across, regardless if we are talking about
hardwood floors or vinyl. You usually need to spend a lot of money on the
services offered by a professional that can install the type of floor you
prefer. Well, this will not happen when you opt for cork tiles. Of course, if
you do not want to deal with this project on your own, there is nothing wrong
with hiring a specialist to do it for you.
Either way, it is
going to cost you less than you can imagine. Another great advantage associated
with cork flooring is the fact that it is great for every room of the house,
even if we are talking about your kitchen, the place where you spend most of
your time. You do not have to worry about it getting damaged too quickly. Even
if you have pets that might not be able to go potty outside all the time. As
long as you make your cork floor waterproof, there is nothing you should be
worried about.
You should also
be aware of the fact that this kind of floor is amazing for households with
children or elderly individuals as well. If they were to fall down, the cork
would prevent them from getting injured. It is just one of the interesting
characteristics of cork. Some might be worried that they can damage it with
furniture or with high heels. Even though dragging your furniture across the
floor without any protection might seem like a good idea, you should know that
this action would damage any type of floor.
When it comes to
cork, you just need to place some sort of rag underneath your furniture if you
want to move it around. The interesting fact about high heels is that you will
not be able to damage the floor if you wear them. You should also consider
opting for this floor solution if you want to ensure that you will not deal
with any mould or insects.
