Installation Guide To The Engineered Hardwood Flooring

The installation of the engineered hardwood Flooring is such an easy affair to do, that you even do not require the services of any technician. When you consider the installation efforts of the solid Hardwood Flooring, the installation of this engineered hardwood Flooring is a kid’s affair.

With the tongue and glue method being utilized in the making of these Hardwoods, they are much easier to install. So, are you ready to take up the task? Here are the steps:

Subfloor Inspection

The whole process begins with the inspection of the Subfloor. Just go through the examination of the floor. Make sure that the subfloor is flat and inspect the quality of the subfloor. Even you can adopt the process of cleaning of the subfloor so that it becomes free from all dust and rest.

Cover with the felt

The next step after the inspection is the process of covering engineered hardwood flooring with felts. While doing the same, lay down the felts and staple the same at regular intervals like 2-3 foot each. Felt should always be approx. 1 cm of walls. Cover the whole area of the floor and make sure to cut openings, your felt hits outlets. Use a hammer and knock all poorly pressed ones.

Layer boards

Now, you can begin the process of the laying down of the engineered hardwood Floors or the ones for handscraped hardwood flooring. Begin the process with the exterior wall and continuing the same go inside. Utilize the best stapler meant for the flooring to staple them down, just before nailing them. In case nailing is not a piece of cake for you, you can use the adhesive technique for the same. In the case of using adhesive, you can even avoid the installation of felt on the subfloor. Always remember to use the rubber mallet in order to put the hand scraped hardwood flooring planks tightly together.

The last step is the testing process, where you have to test the whole floor is you have laid the whole flooring material fit and tight. In case, the adhesive method is being used, let it dry up. You can test the flooring by walking on the floor and getting the feeling of how tight the floor is.

Once the whole process gets completed, enjoy your moment of immense happiness!
