Hide Your Floors
Summary
Leather flooring offers an unparalleled level of luxury and comfort. Barefoot walking becomes a pleasure as the surface adapts to your body temperature, feeling warm in winter and cool in summer.
Article
Leather flooring is the epitome of luxury and elegance. It not only feels incredible underfoot, adjusting to your body temperature, but it also retains its signature leather scent. Over time, the wear enhances its rich patina, giving it a unique and timeless character.
Leather tiles come in a variety of earthy tones, with options for custom shades, inlays, laser engraving, and embossing. They are about 1/8" thick and available in standard sizes like 12"x12" and 24"x24". You can also opt for decorative borders, herringbone patterns, or custom layouts, allowing your creativity to flourish.
Beyond flooring, leather can beautifully cover wall paneling or even crown molding, complementing both traditional and modern styles. These tiles work well throughout the home, adding an inviting ambiance to living and dining rooms and offering sound control in media rooms. They’re a favorite for bedrooms due to their barefoot comfort. However, they are not recommended for kitchens or bathrooms because of the humidity and harsh cleaners.
Maintenance
After installation, apply a coat of paste wax followed by two or three coats of bowling alley wax. This process is essential to prevent a white haze on the leather. Routine maintenance is straightforward: regular dry dust mopping and occasional damp mopping will keep the floor looking its best. Spills should be cleaned up immediately to prevent moisture damage.
Precautions
- Avoid waxing leather wall tiles.
- Stay clear of abrasive cleaners, soap, furniture polish, solvent, ammonia products, or waxes high in Carnauba content.
- Do not use rubber-backed or non-ventilated rugs, pads, or mats on leather surfaces.
- Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading or color changes.
Installation
Leather tiles can be adhered to wood or concrete surfaces. For painted or treated surfaces, sanding is necessary to ensure proper adhesion. The floor must be clean, level, and free of cracks. Even a single grain of sand can affect the tile's appearance.
Use a non-flammable, water-based adhesive on both the back of the tile and the floor. Once dry to the touch, press the tiles firmly in place. It's crucial to ensure they are tightly secured to prevent curling or shrinkage.
Embrace the luxury of leather and transform your space into a cozy and sophisticated haven.
