Tips To Install Laminate Flooring?

Laminate flooring can be an attractive addition to any room of your house, but particularly rooms which must handle a lot of foot traffic, since the material is so durable and easy to clean. Although deciding to install laminate flooring can seem like a daunting task, there are just a few simple steps to follow. The most popular style of laminate flooring is a combination of board planks, fastened together with tongue and groove construction. You will always want to start at the left side of the room and work your way rightward. Spacers will need to be set up along each wall of the room, designating the expansion zone. Once you have accomplished that, begin laying down the material. Line up the short ends and lock them into place until you get to the end of the first row. Once you have, and it comes time to cut your last piece, simply measure the distance between the wall and the material and subtract a quarter inch. That is how you can estimate how large the last piece should be. As you experiment with the best ways to install laminate flooring, you will soon discover that cutting the laminate material is a task within itself. Handsaws and power tools with a carbon tipped blade are most commonly used. Always make sure that the decorative side of the laminate is facing you when you are cutting it. Keep in mind that your style of laminate flooring may require the use of a trim track, which helps to hold applicable trim in place securely. It is nailed or glued to an area called the subfloor. Also, don’t forget to keep transition elements in mind as you install your laminate flooring. These are pieces of material which serve as a bridge between your laminate flooring and other rooms in the house, so that the change between carpet, and your newly installed laminate flooring, for example, is not as visually jarring, and ends up being aesthetically pleasing. Although choosing to install laminate flooring can indeed be an arduous task, with a bit of advance planning and lots of patience, it can be a success.

Can you install wood flooring in the basement?

Yes, you can...provided that there is not a water nor moisture issue. If the basement is below grade (i.e. beneath the ground), then you need to use an engineered hardwood (rather than solid hardwood). Some engineered hardwoods can be glued and others click into place. It's best to consult a flooring professional on best structure/installation method and whether floor prep is needed (since many basements are uneven). Oops...I forgot to sign in. Engineered hardwood is real (and not be confused with laminate which is fake).

How do you install wood flooring?

Answer oak flooringTraditional 3/4" thick oak flooring is laid opposite direction of the floor joist. Make sure the room is relativly square. Start with the groove side against the wall, leaving a 3/4" inch gap between the wall and the first piece for expantion. 3/4" inch plywood underlayment strips work for this. Nail down at an angle through the tongue approx. 4/5 degree angle. run about 4-5 feet of flooring, staggering each row back several inches and take 4-5 rows across at a time. Finish one 5 count row the length of the room and repeat till done. The entire floor then needs to be sanded till smooth and probably 3 coats of finish, usually polyurethane although older floors are covered with shelac. There is a tool available that drives the boards together and then nails it at the right angle. Saves a lot of time and wear on the knees. Not usually a job for a beginner, but can be done. The thin laminete flooring snaps together and just about anyone can do it.
