Provided your vinyl resilient floor is glued down, completely level, and has no loose areas and you use dense cork underlayment that is NO thicker than 1/8" you should be fine. Please follow the installation instructions for the waterproof cork for more details (link below). https://www.greenbuildingsupply.com/core/media/media.nl?id=1740812&c=772072&h=2
