I remember a friend who had cork in the kitchen and it got pretty nasty. Had some permanent stains and started peeling in some places. That was a long time ago and it may've improved since then.

I like the Pergo tiles that look like gray slate. Anyone ever tried those?

Was just at my favorite tile store, and was accosted by Bobby Van Pushysalesprick. He was pushing some seriously cool new cork flooring 'tiles' that were on display and looking quite cool. Some cheesy and cheap, but others quite interesting.

Anywoozle, I need to redo the floor in our kitchen before we sell the place (moving to a townhouse YIPPEEE!) and will be forced by SWMBO to redo the new kitchen for certain: any experience with this stuff? Pros, cons?

I've used in a lot lately.

Just did the lower level media and caterer's kitchen in a project I recent put up pictures of and I found a company I really like.

Natural Cork

They have the Clic system which is very similiar to wood floor installations and is a floating floor as well.


Cork is also very good for people with allergies to dust and dust mites.

Just looked at some of the 'hard sealed' cork thats available here, looks like the way to go, and the guarantee is for 15 years, not 5 as I thought. Now its time to talk my wife out of Maple Parquet.

Cork is gorgeous and they have many many styles available.

AND - it's very good for people who are on their legs for long periods of time.

I can take some photos of the installation if you like - it's not done but you can see most of the kitched and the cork (providing the butcher block paper was removed).

That would be great! I have a kind of crappy shot of me in my kitchen in my gallery, mostly cherry cabinets, solid too, did most of the work myself.
