cork flooring

[Indi]

does anyone know a good place to get some cork flooring? I went to home cheapo, but they only carry one manufacturer there, and it was $$$$. I had seen it at the recent home show for a fairly decent price, but I'll be darned if I can remember who it was

thanks

You really can't get corking done really cheap, if you go cheap your floor will look horrible and the seams will be noticable throughout the floor. If you want to go cheap the best option is a lino, looks alright and fairly durable.

My wife and I were looking at cork flooring recently, and found that a company called Torly's manufactures good stuff and it will be sold at various outlets (just call around).

Be sure to ask for their best price because they should easily drop the price by 10-15% if you play different outlets against one another.

Seams arent really that big of a deal as it is all click together like laminate, but thanks for the idea of lino, I'm sure that would look great in my theatre room

Dunno about cork, but you can get hardwood, laminate etc. at auction super cheap.

divine hardwood does cork. they have a showroom by speakeasy that has a large selection of cork and hardwood. if you do decide to go with cork, get floating cork not glue down. glue down will be a nightmare to replace or fix.

Oh I was thinking kitchen would be where someone would go the cork route. If you are going for more of a rec room go with carpet, it is much more comfortable, especially if there are going to be people sitting on the ground.
