Cork Installation
Cork Flooring Image

Tiles & Planks must acclimate for at least 48 hours in the room where they are to be installed. Store boxes lying flat. Do not unpack until ready to install. Cork is a natural product, shade variations from tile to tile in natural and stained cork is an inherent quality with cork flooring. This is considered a natural attribute—not a manufacturing defect. And, because it is a natural product, adequate window protection is necessary to prevent fading.

4mm & 6mm Tiles for Glue Down

SUB FLOOR: Rivershores cork tiles can be installed directly over dry concrete or wood sub-floors, on, above, or below grade. The sub floor must be clean and free from all irregularities and imperfections.

ADHESIVE: Our cork tiles are supplied with a coat of water base adhesive pre-applied to the back. Apply one coat to the floor surface and allow to dry.

INSTALLATION OF TILE: Tiles can be laid, according to shape selected, as soon as adhesive is dry.

APPLICATION OF FINISH: A minimum of three coats for residential and four coats for commercial of water base urethane are required for unfinished tiles. (Detailed instructions accompany each shipment.)

EasyCliq Floating Floor

EasyCliq is installed as a “floating floor”, which means that the flooring should not be fixed to the sub-floor, and that there should be 10mm expansion space distance to wall and other fixed objects.

Sub Floor
: EasyCliq can be laid on top of most hard surfaces such as resilient floor coverings, wood floors, and ceramic tile. Soft sub floors such as carpet should be removed. The sub floor must be flat, dry, and without variations. All sub floor types require a vapor barrier. (Detailed installation instructions accompany each shipment).
