Cork Flooring Installation in Melbourne by Woodworks Timber Flooring
Cork is no newcomer to the flooring industry, but it is attracting fresh attention as a renewable, eco-friendly material. Beyond its green credentials, cork is comfortable and cushioned underfoot, offers excellent thermal and acoustic insulation, and can be refinished over time. At Woodworks Timber Flooring, we supply and install cork flooring for Melbourne homes and commercial spaces, starting with a free onsite consultation.
Take the time to compare cork with other options, such as timber floor installation or laminate flooring, against your lifestyle, budget and design preferences.
What Is Cork Flooring?
Cork flooring is a natural material made from the bark of the cork oak tree. The bark is harvested without felling the tree and regrows, which is why cork is considered a renewable resource. The bark's structure of millions of tiny air pockets gives cork floors their cushioned feel, insulation and sound absorption.
Why Choose Cork Flooring?
Cork stands up well to heavy foot traffic while staying soft and springy underfoot, which makes it a great option for both residential and commercial spaces. Its cushioned surface bounces back time and time again under everyday use, and it can be refinished as it ages.
