Hardwood Installation Preparation
When it comes to installing hardwood flooring, there are several important steps that must be taken beforehand to ensure a successful installation. At Carpet Source USA, we pride ourselves on providing top-quality hardwood flooring and expert installation services to our valued customers in Albuquerque, NM.
The first step in preparing for hardwood installation is to ensure that the subfloor is level and free from any debris. If the subfloor is not level, it may need to be sanded or filled to create a smooth surface for the hardwood to be installed on. Any debris or adhesive residue should be removed from the subfloor to prevent any bumps or uneven areas.
Next, it’s important to acclimate the hardwood to the room where it will be installed. This involves allowing the wood to adjust to the temperature and humidity of the room to prevent any warping or shrinking after installation. At Carpet Source USA, our team of experts will carefully acclimate your hardwood flooring to ensure the best results.
Before installation, it’s also important to ensure that the room is ready for the hardwood. This means removing all furniture and appliances from the room, as well as any existing flooring. Any baseboards or trim should also be removed, as the hardwood will need room to expand and contract with changes in temperature and humidity.
Once the room is prepared, the installation process can begin. At Carpet Source USA, our experienced installers will carefully measure and cut the hardwood to fit the room, taking care to create a seamless and beautiful look. The hardwood will be installed using either a nail-down or glue-down method, depending on the type of hardwood and the subfloor.
After installation, the hardwood will need to be sanded and finished to create a smooth and durable surface. Our team at Carpet Source USA uses only the highest quality finishes to protect and enhance the beauty of your hardwood flooring.
In conclusion, hardwood installation preparation is a crucial step in ensuring a successful installation.
