Types of Flooring Options
To finish the basement, homeowners have to find suitable flooring for their new home. Because wet basements are by nature and prone to water problems, most materials that work well on top or main floor, simply do not work underground. Consider the general parameters of basement flooring options:
Hardwood floors, cork or bamboo is a bad decision, because they absorb moisture. They are organic, which promotes the growth of mold and rot.
Mat work if made with 100% inorganic fiber, but they might absorb water and must be installed on inorganic floor. Once again, we have a combination of moisture and organic matter, which increases the possibility of molds in your basement to occur.
Ceramic tiles would perfectly fulfill the situation, but they are not used to cover the whole basement because of the high cost.
Vinyl is relatively cheap and plastic, you can imagine, that acts as a vapor barrier. However, in order to install it, you need to set up a sub floor over the concrete. It would protect the water to raise up and create molds between concrete and vinyl. Plus if vinyl installed in a concrete floor it would be painfully cold.
Laminate floors and so-called “parquet” currently used for basements. Many of the options that are sold in hardware stores are made with organic compounds. Many laminates are not 100% sealed and immersed in water, causing rot.
Stained concrete finishes have the advantage of stability and versatility. Installation is usually dirty and needs time to heal. As beautiful as the final result may be, will be as cold as tile, and porous concrete absorbs water course. Also, make sure the sealer or varnish applied to colored concrete is able to cope with the hydrostatic pressure. Otherwise, it comes off.
Albo Renovation Specialists will help you pick the right cover for your basement floor.
