Precautions for the installation of solid wood flooring

Now the decoration is mainly solid wood flooring! Spread a layer of plastic foam underneath and directly on the floor! There will be no thumping sound when such a floor is gone!

Straight nail method - use nails to fix the plank to the rough floor. This method is often used for thinner wood floors.

Floor nailing method – use floor nails to fix the planks to the rough floor instead of using straight nails. This method is easier than the straight nail method.

Bonding – Both laminate and parquet flooring can be bonded. Glue the boards to the wool floor.

Levitation method - this is the fastest and most convenient method of laying. The suspended floor is not in contact with the raw floor, but is suspended on it. Neither adhesives nor nails are used.

A layer of padding is usually sandwiched between the planks and the raw floor to prevent moisture and reduce noise. Suspended floors can be laid on almost any surface.

Leave the expansion joints around, and if the wooden floor has wheels to go, it will not be deformed.

If you don't have floor glues, you should paste a layer of moisture-proof film under the floor, and leave some gaps on the side of the wall, because the floor will expand and shrink in heat, but don't worry about the gaps, there are baseboards to cover them.

<><How much expansion joints are left in the solid wood floor

Between 8 and 12 mm.

Expansion joints need to be placed in contact with the wall, usually 8 to 12 mm of gap. If the floor meets the floor tiles, a gap of 4 to 5 mm should also be reserved. In case of dry season, the floor expansion joint should be reserved a little larger.

In the wet season, the floor expansion joints should be reserved for a little smaller. In the general season, floor expansion joints are reserved according to the convention.

In addition, it should also be considered whether the solid wood floor is balanced before laying, moisture and weather conditions during installation, so as to be both scientific and flexible. In order to prevent cracks between the board and the board due to seasonal changes in the floor after the wooden floor is installed, in the installation process, try to install spring clips at the expansion joints of the wall and the wooden floor, and the number of spring clips is usually about 3 per square meter.

Precautions for laying solid wood floors

1. The specifications used in the keel wood fang should not be too thick, otherwise the silver tremor will affect the use of space, usually with a thickness of 4 to 2 cm.

2. Cement nails can not be used, but need to be hammered with electric hammers and then nailed into the ground by wooden wedges and screws.

3. The keel will not move after it is placed, so there is no need to use cement mortar to fix it around, so that the wild suspicion will not cause the floor to arch and tile-like deformation due to insufficient maintenance time.

4. For home decoration, foam pads and 9 mm plywood can be used, if you have to use it, you should use 12 cm to 18 cm plywood, and cut it into 4 to 6 pieces, and nail around the well-punching keel and board surface.
