Thinking of purchasing cork tiles and installing them on your own? The installation process can be a bit tricky for a first time installer. In addition to gathering the right tools for your cork flooring project, you'll also need to find easy-to-follow installation instructions. Also keep in mind that while cork tiles are quite durable, there are some household areas where they are not suitable for installation. Examples may include bathrooms, kitchens and basements (check with the manufacturer where you purchased the cork flooring material).

Cork flooring can be well worth the effort it takes to install and maintain them. Cork floor tiles are environmentally friendly, naturally resist common household allergens, deter mold and fungi growth, and even contain a natural substance that repels insects (i.e. Suberin). If that wasn't enough, cork flooring also provides a high level of insulation, is a resilient floor type (bounces back upon impact), and can help reduce sound transmission. At the end of the day, you can enjoy a home that's quieter, warmer, and safer for your pets and family.
