Question 1

We want to cover existing vinyl tile floor that contains 7% asbestos (best not to remove) and it's very flat and solid. We were told it's best to use floating floors on top of existing. We loved Marmoleum Cocoa product (White Chocolate), but it only comes in a sheet. Questions: are there plans to manufacture White Cocoa in a tile form? If not, can a sheet be glued on top of existing tile floors that are very flat and solid? View answer

I want to do a black and white checkered floor using Marmoleum tiles in my kitchen. I would like for it to be the classic black and white floor with a matte finish and no texturing. Also prefer it to be solid white and solid black with no other colors or flecks. I am not finding any such colors amongst your tiles, and yet this is such a classic floor!

Hi, I am chemically sensitive and would like to find a eco-friendly carpet--such as wool perhaps. I live in Florida and there is a lot of humidity. My condo is in a flood zone and sits on a very high water table--thus more humidity coming up from the foundation. I have been told that wool carpeting would breed mold in my situation. Do you agree with that assessment? Thank you. View answer
