Currently, we have a partially finished basement was was done decades ago. There is asbestos tile which is intact except for several tiles that are missing in their entirety. We've been advised to either leave it as is or cover it up. The basement is pretty dry. We run a dehumidifier in the summer in case.
On four occasions, water has gotten in. Twice, after new windows were installed, once when the washer broke and once when the shower directly above leaked. We have since made all repairs but want to be realistic that we may get water again.
That being said, what type of flooring is the best for our situation? We are looking for something we can do ourselves, that will not get moldy or deteriorate if moistened. Perhaps something that is floating? Does that exist?
The room is an art studio and will be a playroom eventually. Any ideas from experienced homeowners and contractors?
