Cork looks great and is comfortable/cushy to walk on. Bathroom 2 tile is very pretty and the thickness cuts down on cold conduction. Bathroom 1 slate is nice but cold and wish we had chosen a contrasting grout for interest. Floating plank floors need space at the edge to allow for movement, so we’ll eventually want to finish the edges somehow. Installer used red marker (slipped that one by my eagle eyes) to mark planks so we’ve found red marks at many edges. Told Mike about it and he sent a can of some cleaner up with Rich the plumber. He claims it will remove any stain; we’re hesitant to use it because it looks toxic; need to try it or come up with another concoction which will remove the marks. Bathroom 2 t-molding did not stay glued down. Mike told us to remove old glue, add new liquid nails and weight down until secure. We bought another t-molding for bathroom 1 (because the leftover reducer we had them use there is too narrow and doesn’t look right) and it, too, needs to be glued down. It would be nice looking (I think…) to put bamboo baseboard along all the floor edges; not pressing, though.
