Installing Your Beautiful Solid Timber Flooring

solid timber floorboardsHaving solid timber flooring will surely make your home hugely appealing. Timber floorboards easily complement any home décor and add value to homes. Perfect timber floors can be from any of the native trees in Australia or imported ones like the popular pine flooring, beautiful Blackbutt flooring or the attractive Boral timber floor.
 
You can also choose to have a parquetry flooring with its beautiful geometric designs or floating floors that are mounted on pre-existing floor. There is a growing trend in using recycled timber because these wooden floorboards are said to be rich in character despite its many holes and marks, which are considered to be its assets. If you have chosen to have solid timber flooring then you also have four options in installing these. These options depend largely on various factors like the flooring type, site condition and budget. Laying solid wooden floor is not rocket science, but it requires a certain degree of skill and precision to properly install the boards, making sure it sits well. This particular endeavor is for the experts but also for DIY practitioners who have had some useful experience in laying timber flooring.
 
The cheapest way to install solid timber flooring is through the conventional method of nailing. This has been performed many times in the past with great results. Any one with timber boards in their property will vouchsafe this claim. Moreover, nailing boasts of a clean installation, wherein you can use your new floor in an instant. However, it does have its disadvantages like it can only be used in certain favorable site conditions. This method also requires knowledge on the part of the installers, which is why hiring professional timber floor installers is highly recommended.
 
Furthermore, if you have a concrete sub-floor, then you can just glue your solid timber flooring. There are recommended adhesives provided by your timber supplier as to the best kind that will yield optimal results. This method is very time-consuming and may eat up much of your spare time. You will have to wait for the glue to set before you can begin. If you are covering a wide area to install your timber floor boards then you will have a huge task ahead of you. Gluing actually creates a nicer feel to it when you walk on them. This is its primary advantage which is why many people choose gluing because of the many benefits like the acoustic, making it less noisy. In addition, adhesives are easy to come by and very practical since any leftover can be used for other applications. However, installation will surely be messy and requires a good deal of time to complete.
 
Another method in installing solid timber flooring is by using an underlay, which is becoming very popular as of late. This method is very much like gluing except that the glue is attached to the underlay, making a clean installation and enabling you to immediately make use of your new floor. This is very friendly to the pockets as well, most likely its highest appeal so far. However, accuracy remains a problem, requiring expert installers.
 
You can also use a clip system wherein your solid timber flooring is held together by a bunch of clips. A metal clip is attached at the board’s backside and then clipped on onto the board adjacent to it. Once again, this method creates a clean installation and making your floor accessible to all in a matter of a few minutes. However, this system still has a limited portfolio and may be quite expensive than the rest. 
 
For whatever kind of installation procedure you use, your solid timber flooring will make a huge impact in your overall home décor. You ought to exercise care and diligence as to your manner of selection on which particular flooring suits your fancy as well as your budget.
