Flooring Options For Basements
Most basement flooring is made of wood, tile, carpet, or laminate. These options are porous and like a sponge - they simply take on water until the flooring can't hold anymore. They also have a wood subfloor which absorbs water and holds the liquid in place beneath the flooring. This is critical because where water sits, is where mold and mildew thrive. Once mold and mildew get hold of a basement, if left unchecked, it can create structural softening and damage.
