Learn why wooden flooring is the perfect choice for any home. With its timeless and natural quality, it creates a cozy and elegant atmosphere that transforms your interior space. Easy to clean, keeping your home free of germs and dust ideal for those with allergies.
Before choosing the right wooden floor for your needs, it is crucial to consider several aspects. 1: The type of subfloor is a determining factor, as it will influence whether you opt for plywood or solid wood. 2: In homes with high traffic, harder woods are generally recommended for their resistance to wear. 3: The finish and style you will use for your space.
Nailing/staple installation
It is a nail installation primarily used to attach flooring planks over a wooden subfloor or a sturdy solid wood substructure. In this method, the planks are secured by nailing them below the subfloor.
Nail and glue
For boards 4” or larger, it is recommended to combine nailing with the use of glue during installation.
Installation with glue
When nailing is not feasible, glue is an excellent option, especially when joining wood floors to dry, fully cured concrete.
Floating installation
This technique consists of joining the floor planks together without fixing them to the subfloor. They connect using an interlock system or an adhesive applied to the tongue. The main advantage of this method is that the wood floor moves as a unit, which helps reduce the formation of cracks between the boards.
To ensure the durability of your hardwood floor, it is crucial to maintain regular and proper cleaning. This includes using a microfiber mop to remove dust daily, vacuuming weekly with a soft-bristled vacuum cleaner, and mopping with a cleaner specifically for hardwood floors at least once a month. Depending on your traffic, consider reapplying a polyurethane finish every 5 years to protect the surface.
It is also essential to act quickly in the event of liquid spills to avoid additional damage. Additionally, placing mats and pads in high-traffic areas will help reduce wear and tear. Lastly, using protective pads on furniture is an effective measure to prevent scratches and marks on your hardwood floor.
Avoid using harsh or abrasive chemicals when cleaning your hardwood floor, as they can reduce its lifespan. This includes substances such as ammonia, oil soaps, wax or vinegar.
Wearing high heels on hardwood floors can cause dents.
It is crucial to protect furniture legs to avoid damaging the finish of your hardwood floor. It is recommended to place protective pads under the furniture legs.
Prolonged exposure to sunlight and UV rays can cause discoloration or changes to the protective polyurethane finish on your wood floor. To prevent this, it is advisable to use curtains or blinds that block harmful sun rays.
Hardwood floors are versatile and can be installed over a variety of surfaces such as ceramic, concrete, wood subfloors, vinyl, and marble. It is essential to consult with an expert before proceeding with the installation to ensure an optimal result.
The internal structure of wood, which is made up of fibers, gives wood low conductivity and heat diffusion.
This characteristic allows wooden floors to retain heat better in winter,
providing warmth, and to stay cool in summer, promoting energy savings and better
thermal performance in your home.
It is common for wide plank floors to develop cracks due to seasonal contraction and expansion. To minimize this problem, it is advisable to maintain a constant humidity level between 45% and 55% throughout the year. Controlling humidity by dehumidifying in the humid summer months and humidifying during the drier seasons helps stabilize the environment and reduce the chances of cracking.
