What is Cork Flooring?

Traditionally, cork flooring is made from the bark of the cork oak tree that is then ground and processed into durable sheets and baked. Durable as well as decorative and suitable for both residential homes as well as commercial locations, cork flooring is naturally resistant to bacteria, mold and mildew and well suited to bathrooms, kitchens and other areas subject to moisture.

Warmth and Flexibility

Add a little bounce to your step with flexible cork flooring that is naturally resilient to the pressure of heavy furniture and any type of impact due to its inherent numerous air pockets making it the perfect flooring choice for high traffic areas. A natural insulation material, cork flooring installed by Giovanni’s Custom Flooring & Renovations in Maricopa also provides extra warmth that helps to save on energy costs. In addition, our quality cork flooring includes a polyurethane topcoat that protects from spills and water damage and is highly durable when properly installed and maintained.

Versatile and Eco-Friendly

Easily fitted over a range of other flooring surfaces, including wood or linoleum, Giovanni’s Custom Flooring & Renovations cork flooring installs well over uneven floor surfaces and is a green flooring choice that is derived from the shedding of the cork oak tree that occurs naturally every 9 to 15 years.
