City Cork Engineered Flooring

City Cork Engineered Flooring is one of the UK's top cork flooring suppliers. As the material used for cork flooring is taken from the bark of the Cork Oak Tree, rather than the core of the tree itself, this method of flooring is probably one of the most eco-friendly. 

This surprisingly supportive material also helps to retain heat and sound and therefore saves you money on energy supplies.

At Forest Hills Flooring we compare plenty of cork flooring options provided by the best suppliers in the country and bring them here for you to find the best one. Cork is a completely natural product and the only man-made addition, to the whole process, is the smile you will radiate once it is installed in your home! 

What, Why & Benefits

 

Cork flooring has a longer lifespan than many people would initially expect. The material itself is easily compressible but yet extremely elastic and as a result acts very similar to memory-foam. 

The floor will compress underneath the weight of your feet, but spring back into place afterwards, thus providing you with extra, comfortable support. Hence, cork flooring is the ideal flooring choice for places with high foot-traffic and frequent use.

The material itself has thousands of tiny air pockets inside; this establishes cork as one of the most efficient heat-insulators available on the market today. Laying cork on your floor will prevent energy loss and heat loss from your feet.

 

As well as being extremely comfortable, cork flooring is also considered as one of the best choices for heat and sound insulation. Therefore, if you live in an apartment building and want to keep sound levels from below to a minimum, this type of flooring is perfect for you. The air pockets within the cork actively absorb the sound waves and create a peaceful atmosphere in your room.

Another reason to install cork flooring is its resistance to mould and infestation that make it the perfect choice for those with strong allergies. 

Also, cork is an extremely fire-resistant material than does not emit any dangerous or poisonous gases. So when you buy a new cork floor rest assured that your purchase is hygienic, safe and comfortable.

 

Cork flooring is also a great option for those who are concerned about the environment. This renewable natural resource involves purely the bark of the tree, stripped only once, a decade at a time. Those green individuals out there will be proud to have a naturally beautiful floor, without the involvement of logging or deforestation.

The material used for this flooring looks cosy, feels naturally warm and is very easy to clean. There is no need for acidic chemicals or specific tools when cleaning cork flooring, just a simple sweeping brush and an occasional damp-mop.

Cork flooring also gives you the option to be as creative and imaginative as you wish. Why not try buying several different styles of cork and lay them down in your own design?
