NOVA BASEMENT FLOORING

NOVA Basement

The Basement is not just storage.  The family room, playroom, home gym, and a favorite and enjoyable space deserve attention for great design.  Whether you’re finishing your basement for the first time or want to step up your style with a new floor, we offer plenty of basement flooring options in different styles.

There are various styles and materials, but not every product suits a basement floor.  Concrete slabs are porous, cold, and liable to be wet occasionally, and some can’t stand up to moisture. Carpeting on wood can be moldy and smelly sometimes. Products that include particle boards can swell. Solid wood can bow and warp. So, the wrong flooring looks inexpensive and needs repair down the road.

We can offer various basement flooring solutions that can give any basement makeover smashing a new look while being durable and simple. These flooring solutions are specially designed for the concrete basement and will never decay, rot, or create mold. Besides, they are raised slightly off the slab by small pegs.  This creates an air space that allows occasional water vapor and moisture finishing products such as wall panels and dropped ceilings, which are brilliant ways to update and renovate the home.

THERMAL DRY FLOOR MATTING

The Thermal dry floor matting is a PVC tile underpayment that wants to install carpeting for the basement. The tiles protect the carpet from the moisture in the concrete below and won’t support mold growth. Thermal dry matting is 100% waterproof and acts as a vapor barrier and a thermal break. Like all Basement  Systems flooring products, the tiles can be lifted and cleaned.

MILLCREEK WOOD LAMINATE FLOORING

This PVC plank-style flooring offers the same look and feel as hardwood while being suited to concrete basement floors. Unlike many hardwood flooring products, it won’t rot or warp when subjected to wet or dry cycles.

THERMAL DRY BASEMENT VINYL FLOOR TILES

These come with finishes that simulate ceramic tile and wood. There’s no need to cover them with anything. These decorative tiles are similar to Thermal dry basement matting. No grout or adhesive is required. Thermal dry floor tiles are easy to maintain and durable for colors between sandstone and beige. All tiles can be mixed and matched.

Thermally Carpet Tiles

This floor tile looks like carpet tiles but is completely waterproof and resistant to colors, mildew, and odors. With thermally carpet tiles, there is no need for underlayment. It acts as an effective thermal breaker for the concrete floor, and you can walk on it as soon as they are installed. Choose a product that can easily be pulled up, washed, and reinstalled.

The primary concern of basement flooring is moisture. How to avoid it, and how well the floor will dry when it’s wet. To find the best basement flooring, consider your basement’s ultimate purpose.

There are five ways to tile basement flooring that can be mixed and matched to create a personalized installation for a home.

  • Color
  • Direction- it can be a straight, diamond-shaped
  • Size: To offset the tile, use two or more sizes.
  • borders, patterns, and insets.
  • Relief and texture. On a floor, mix glossy tile with textured tiles.

This would create a custom look but cost little to do.

This will have a big impact on what type of flooring material you choose. Next is your budget. Once you know what you plan to use the area for, finding the flooring type you want will be easier.
