VINYL BATHROOM FLOORS COVED VINYL FLOOR


VINYL BATHROOM FLOORS: COVED VINYL: Coved vinyl means the vinyl flooring was brought up the walls, usually three or four inches. Rooms with coved vinyl do not need, nor can they use, baseboard. This allows for easy cleaning around the walls. Use care when placing chairs or tables against the cove as their legs may tear through the cove. Vinyl flooring may contain asbestos, especially if the flooring is pre- 1980. Be aware that the inspector does not check for asbestos. VINYL WITH WOOD OR VINYL-RUBBER BASEBOARDS: Keep wood baseboards tightly secured to the wall and sealed with caulk at contact with the floor. Keep well painted or stained to prevent water penetration and rot. A vinyl-rubber "baseboard" is fastened to the wall with an adhesive. Sometimes this adhesive will break down and allow the base to come loose. Careful application of base adhesive (available at Flooring Dealers or Carpet Stores) behind the loose areas is the method of correction. Follow the directions on the adhesive container. Any floor covering materials laid over wood subfloors effectively prevents the inspector from determining the condition of the subfloor. Wood rot can go undetected if not visible to the inspector. Contact the inspection company for further information if you desire. All vinyl flooring should be carefully caulked around tubs and showers to prevent water penetration to the subfloor and to prevent lift and damage to the flooring itself.
