Elegant, soft and clean...
~ Nothing beats an earthen floor for its beauty and texture. Sealed with natural oils such as hemp or flax seed, an earthen floor is a refreshing texture to have underfoot. Easy to clean, durable with some of the similarities of a concrete floor but with a leathery slipper like feeling to it. A welcome alternative, free from the toxins found in carpet padding and laminate flooring options, you can feel safe and secure with this choice. Often laid in a thick slab over a subfloor of gravel and insulation in new homes, these floors can also be brought into existing spaces to re-finish or replace an outdated flooring option. Skim coats over an existing wooden subfloor can be as thin as 1/2" thick, reducing the weight load. |
