• Installation Methods

  Installation methods vary depending on wood format and site conditions, but here are some general guidelines:

  • Solid wood is typically nailes, or nailed and glued, to a plywood subfloor.
  • Engineered wood is typically glued down to concrete or plywood subfloors, with or without an underlayment such as a sound abating mat or a moisture barrier, depending on site conditions/requirements.
  • Engineered floors are also usually the best choice for gluing down over radiant heat installations.
  • In either ormat, when planks are particularly wide, gluing and nailing are always good practice if possible.
