When it comes to home renovations, few choices are as critical as your flooring. You want the high-end look of natural stone or ceramic, but you also need a surface that can handle the "real life" of a busy household.
At Riverwoods Flooring, we are proud to feature COREtec Tile—the revolutionary solution that bridges the gap between luxury design and everyday performance. If you’re tired of cold, brittle, and difficult-to-install traditional tile, it’s time to discover "the COREtec way."
Here’s why COREtec Tile is the ultimate upgrade for your home.
1. The Triple-Proof Promise: Waterproof, Kidproof, Petproof
The hallmark of the COREtec brand is its 100% waterproof construction. Unlike traditional laminate or wood-based products that swell and warp when exposed to moisture, COREtec Tile is engineered to stay dimensionally stable. Whether it's a splash in the bathroom, a spill in the kitchen, or a pet accident in the mudroom, these floors won't budge. It’s truly a kid and pet-friendly choice for high-traffic environments.
2. Ditch the Grout: Faster, Cleaner Installation
Traditional tile installation is notorious for being messy, expensive, and time-consuming. COREtec Tile changes the game with its integrated grout lines and click-lock installation system.
-
No Messy Grout: Say goodbye to scrubbing stained grout lines. The grout is built directly into the design, offering a seamless look that is stain-resistant and easy to clean.
-
Save Time: You can save up to 50% on installation time and costs. Plus, there’s no acclimation period—you can install and live on your new floors the same day.
3. "Beauty and Brawn" with Advanced Core Technology
COREtec Tile doesn't just look like stone; it feels like a premium product because of what’s inside. Depending on the style you choose, COREtec utilizes advanced core structures:
-
SPC (Solid Polymer Core): Provides hardcore toughness and superior dent and impact resistance.
-
WPC (Wood Plastic Composite): Features air bubbles in the core for a warmer, quieter, and softer feel underfoot.
-
Mineral Core: A PVC-free option that allows for hyper-realistic designs and extreme temperature stability.
4. Comfort You Can Feel (and Hear)
One of the biggest complaints about traditional ceramic tile is that it's cold and noisy. Every COREtec Tile plank comes with a pre-attached cork underlayment. This critical component provides:
-
Enhanced Comfort: A softer, more "cushiony" step that is easier on your joints.
-
Sound Absorption: Up to 70% better noise reduction, eliminating that "hollow clacking" sound common with cheaper vinyl.
-
Natural Warmth: The cork acts as a thermal barrier, making your floors noticeably warmer on chilly mornings.
5. Authentic Style for Every Vibe
From the elegant sweep of Opal Travertine to the earthy textures of Bronzeite Marble, COREtec offers a wide range of realistic stone and ceramic looks. Using Embossed In Register (EIR) technology, the texture of the tile perfectly aligns with the visual design, creating a stunningly authentic surface that adds value to your home.
