FAQ’s

What is Stoneform?

Stoneform is a next generation composite flooring. Stoneform is comprised of nearly 70% limestone and 30% virgin pvc. Stoneform is an ultra stable and durable choice for flooring. It provides all the benefits of natural wood and stone flooring without all the upkeep and hassle.

What is a wear layer and why does it matter?

Wear layer is the top surface of Stoneform that helps prevent scratches, dents, and wear and tear from reaching the core of the flooring. Wear layers are available in Stoneform on our Select product 12 Mils or .3MM thickness, on our Premium product at 20 Mils or .5MM thickness, and on our Elite product at 30Mils or .75MM thickness. The thicker the wear layer the better flooring is built to withstand wear and tear. Our Select product is rated for only residential use whereas our Elite product is rated for both commercial and residential use. Our proprietary wear layer is comprised of ceramic bead infused urethane to make it even more durable than other floors.

Can I install over other types of existing floors?

Stoneform can be installed over permanently fasted floors like ceramic tile or glue down vinyl. Stoneform cannot be installed over floating surfaces like laminate flooring or carpet. For installation over existing ceramic tile, the grout joints must be filled in if they are deeper than 1/16 of an inch.

Is Stoneform Waterproof?

Yes! Stoneform is waterproof. Stoneform’s unique locking mechanism between planks does not allow moisture to penetrate through the floor.

What is the rating for off gassing?

Stoneform is floor score certified, meaning there is no off gassing or harmful VOC’s.

Is it interlocking?

It is a click floor, using the industry standard Unilin click system. It is also a floating floor which means you don’t need any glue.

Is there an underlayment?

The underlayment comes already attached to the flooring. If you are installing on a concrete slab, you will want to put down a vapor barrier prior to installing the floor!
