A Look at Waterproof Vinyl Flooring For Apartment Homes

 An accomplished executive with extensive experience in commercial real estate investment, Vito Dragone serves as president of Dragone Realty Investments, a commercial real estate company focused on multifamily communities in Washington, D.C. Under Vito Dragone's direction, the company's Dragone Construction offers exterior and interior renovation services such as new kitchen and baths, painting, carpet, lighting, and flooring installation.

A synthetic flooring material, vinyl flooring resembles hardwood, stone, or ceramic and can be in the form of tiles or planks with or without adhesive backing. Installing vinyl flooring is a simple process that involves placing the pieces on a flat subfloor and underlayment. Waterproof vinyl flooring is a type that does not absorb surface water, making it an excellent option for areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and other common areas where water damage prevention is crucial.

Vinyl flooring is only water-resistant on the surface. Below-surface water resulting from floods can damage the material and other properties. In such situations where the subfloor is flooded, the best course of action is to remove the flooring material, clean the area, dry it, and then reinstall the vinyl only if the underlayment is attached or closed-cell. There is a risk of fungal growth following post-flooding reinstallation of cork underlayment.
