cork sublayment under laminate in basement
Comments (2)Cork underlayment does not provide any effective moisture retarder properties, unless it has an attached moisture barrier film (and I am unaware of such a product). If your laminate has an attached underpad, you may void the product warranty by adding an additional cushioned layer. However, since most flooring warranties are very limited instruments, I doubt that would be a problem for you anyway....See MoreFloating cork floor basement and children

Any thoughts? I keep getting mixed messages about cork floors and the basement....See MoreCork floor in the basement wet bar
