To maintain the lifetime waterproof properties of RevWood floors, it is crucial to prevent liquids from seeping underneath near the walls. This is achieved by sealing the perimeter with a barrier. While RevWood Premier, Plus, and Select options are designed to resist everyday household spills, cutting the planks during installation exposes unprotected edges. To preserve the comprehensive waterproof warranty, it’s necessary to apply 100% silicone sealant along the perimeter. This ensures moisture stays on the surface and doesn’t penetrate the exposed edges.
