Nowadays, many home renovations are to find channels to buy flooring, and then either install themselves or find installation tools. Here, tell you a little about the steps and tips for floor installation and hope to help with your home.
Step 1 Acceptance of paving materials
For important pavement materials, such as wooden floors, wool floors, wood-based panels, wooden keels, floor nails, moisture-proof membranes, adhesives, waterproof coatings, etc., all of them should meet the relevant national standards and be accepted before being used. Especially for the problem of the moisture content of the purchased wooden floor, consumers should pay special attention to it.
General floor manufacturers will provide door-to-door service. Experts suggest that if you have time, especially owners who use floors in large areas, it is best to go to the factory warehouse or transit station to check in advance. The general manufacturers will test the water content in the warehouse. Rate of rapid tester. It can help you quickly understand whether the water content and pattern of the purchased floor match the sample you see in the exhibition hall.
Step 2 Primary Ground Treatment
The first step before the formal paving of the floor is the grassroots treatment, which is mainly to repair the problem floor and form a new grass-roots level so as to avoid the arching of the floor due to the emptying and cracking of the original grass-roots floor. After doing a good job, you need to level the ground. If the ground is uneven, not only will there be gaps in the baseboard, the floor will also be uneven, and there will be abnormal noises, which will also seriously affect the quality of the floor.
Cement leveling must allow time for the cement to fully dry. If the difference between the height of the ground per square meter exceeds 5 mm, it cannot be installed. The construction workers may be asked to trim the edges or corners, such as protrusions or uneven parts, on the ground level (measure the flatness of the ground with a two-meter ruler, and the requirement shall not exceed 3 mm).
Step 3 laying floor mats to play the keel
After the leveling is done, you can pave the floor and play the keel when the ground is dry. The common floor mats on the market today consist of aluminum foil and polyester. It is placed close to the floor and plays the role of leveling, dampening, moisture protection, vibration reduction and floor protection.
For the laying of solid wood flooring, the flatness requirements for the floor are not as harsh as the laminate flooring and engineered wood flooring, and the keel is the most important link. To ensure that the material of the wood keel is generally dried fir or white pine. The keel should be located above the moisture barrier to protect the keel from moisture. Between the keel and the wall, furniture, etc., it is best to leave 10mm-20mm expansion joints, to reserve space for the thermal expansion and contraction of the floor.
Moisture-proof membrane should be kept sealed and repaired if damaged. Pay special attention to the moisture-proof insulation of the joints between the wooden floor and the floor tiles or marble, and the isolation between the bathroom and the kitchen.
The height of the keel depends on the ground conditions, but it must not be less than 1.5 centimeters and its width cannot be less than 3.5 centimeters. Partial unevenness should be repaired, and wooden shim mats with thickness ≤ 5mm can be used. What needs to be reminded is that once the keel has been kicked off, it needs to be cleaned and vacuumed, and then evenly sprinkled with bamboo charcoal, woodblocks and other moisture-proofing agents and insecticides.
Step 4 Optional Paving Flooring
Before the formal paving of the wooden floor, an optional pre-paving is carried out. The floor is used centrally according to the principle of closeness of color and texture, spread in a room or part, and then gradually processed. During this process, you can also inspect the floor for problems such as size or head cracking. If you are satisfied with the pre-paving, you can fix the floor and form a formal paving.
The keel that the floor touches must have a nail. When fixing the floor, it is necessary to pay attention to whether the floor has cracks at the end, the height difference between adjacent floors is too large, or the gap between the panels is too large. The floor is embedded in the door frame, the part of the door cover, and the wall and door cover should be left 8mm-12mm expansion gap. There should be a gap of 1mm between the bottom of the door cover and the floor covering to prevent the floor from rising during the rainy season.
Step 5 Baseboard Installation
The thickness of the baseboard must cover the expansion joints between the floor covering and the wall. When installing, leave a gap of 1mm between the floor coverings so as not to hinder floor expansion. The angle of the yin and yoke of the wooden baseboard shall be installed after cutting the corners, and the joint shall be sawed and fixed at 45 degrees.
Check whether there is an open ventilation slot on the back of the baseboard and carry out anti-corrosion treatment. The ventilation slot depth is not less than 5mm and the width is not less than 30mm.
