Do Your Own Hardwood Flooring Installation
Hardwood flooring installation can be a difficult and time consuming job, but if you feel confident giving it a go personally, you can end up saving quite a bit of money. Properly installed home flooring systems can last for generations, even under wet and humid circumstances, such as in a bathroom. With a little advice and a step by step guide, as well as plenty of time, hardwood flooring installation can be accomplished without expensive professional services.
Moisture causes the most damage to hardwood flooring. Moisture can gradually warp the surface of the wood as it expands and contracts. This does not imply, however, that hardwood flooring cannot be installed in humid circumstances. Hardwood flooring simply requires a little preventive care in order to work well under these conditions. Installing hardwood with an asphalt felt should provide a guarantee against rotting and warping of the hardwood. Take 15 pound asphalt felt, and put it over the subfloor in overlapping sections. The felt should be secured with a staple gun.
Leave a small space, around half an inch, between the asphalt felt and the wall. A baseboard or base shoe will be placed in these smaller spaces between the flooring and the wall. The first three boards of the flooring should be laid out by hand. Board lengths are typically random, so segments of the flooring should be set out as a test before nailing down. When the first boards are put out, the remainder can be put out with a flooring nailer. This will make it simpler to do a good job of laying out the flooring.
When the new flooring creates an uneven surface, you can employ a reducer to create a level meeting point. When getting ready to put down a hardwood floor, be certain to safely store the wood. Storing the wood out in the open where it can get wet will lead to uneven flooring that does not fit together. If the flooring must be stored outdoors, be sure to cover it with a waterproof tarp. This will reduce any possible damage from moisture, which can warp and bend expensive wood flooring very quickly. Do not transport wood flooring in an open bed when weather conditions could give rise to rain or high humidity.
