    Is plank corkboard suitable for bathrooms?
    Should we use snap together cork flooring or glue down cork for a basement bathroom that currently has a good cement floor? Do they both need to be sealed?

    Warm and soft, cork floors make a very comfortable flooring surface for a bathroom. However, we recommend you take certain precautions because of the high risk of spillage. Floating floor is not recommended for bathrooms, only tiles should be used. After installation, it is important to caulk the perimeter of the room, prior to installing molding or baseboard. This will prevent spills from damaging the sub-floor or walls. An additional protection layer should be applied to completely seal the joints.
