What you can expect from hardwood, plywood or chipboard in a remodeled basement:
Your problems are just beginning if you install plywood subflooring, chipboard subflooring, or hardwood finished basement flooring into your basement. If you have wood in your basement, then sooner or later, it will get wet. Even if your basement does not leak, moisture from the earth around your home will seep through the porous concrete of your basement walls and floors and enter into your basement. And think of all the things that can leak from inside your home! A pipe could freeze and burst, a water heater could leak, or one of the countless other pipes leading to your tub, toilets, dishwasher, shower, refrigerator, washing machine or sinks will surely eventually break, leak, or overflow. When this happens, the water is going to flow downhill and end up in your basement, making the wood wet. Damp or wet hardwood floors provide food and a habitat for insects, mice, mold and mildew while they rot. Wooden floors of any type are not the answer to finishing a basement!

MillCreek Flooring is created with a pateneted process that creates the textured grain of hardwood out of PVC and gives it the same look, feel and touch of a hardwood floor. The difference? MillCreek Flooring's unique hollow honeycomb design and durably vinyl build makes it harder than traditional wooden and laminate floors. They will never rot, support mold growth, or expand and buckle when wet. Our remodeled basement floors have proven through extensive testing that they can be used in any environment with no influence from humidity. Being 100% waterproof, your floors are safe for aquariums, watering plants, dropped drinks, and any other liquids without being stained, discolored or ruined. With its written 20-Year Residential Waterproof Warranty, water heater failure, damaged pipes, or any other flooding from damaging and ruining your finished basement floor are no problem for your remodeled basement floor!
Total Basement Finishing MillCreek Finished Basement Flooring comes in three beautiful designs- Rosewood, Natural Oak and Red Mahogany. With the warm, comfortable look of hardwood, your basement is given that pleasing natural touch that makes a room so much more comfortable. Its special fade-resistant UV coating and anti-slip surface provides you with a finished basement floor that you can relax in and enjoy! Installation is a quick, clean and easy process. Laid on your remodeled basement floor using a special click-in system, it allows for installation and dismantling without damaging any of the panels. If one panel is damaged, it's possible to remove and replace it without disturbing the other panels. If you move and choose to take your MillCreek Flooring with you to finish and remodel your new basement, it can be taken up and relocated. Our remodeled basement flooring is compatible with any radiant heated basement floors up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 48.9 degrees Celsius). Its beauty can be appreciated the day it's installed- there's no need to wait for anything to dry, set, settle or air out, and there is no dust or debris created by installation.
MillCreek Flooring is created by being pressed in high temperatures without using the traditional adhesive bonding method with formaldehyde content that other finished basement flooring is created with. Since it does not contain formaldehyde or support bacteria growth, it's healthy and environmentally friendly. Laid directly on your basement floor without adhesive, it can be used immediately after installation and does not release any fumes that would contribute to the short and long-term pollution of your remodeled basement living area.
Because it is made entirely out of inorganic materials, MillCreek Finished Basement Flooring will never grow mold, mildew or rot. The smells created in basements from rotting wood, mold and mildew will never come from our finished basement flooring. Additionally, MillCreek Finished Basement will never be the home of termites, insects or other pests and does not encourage mice, rats and other rodents into your home. With MillCreek flooring, you can enjoy a safe, beautiful, clean basement floor for many years to come!
