How to lay wood floor

The modern home mostly chooses wooden floors(Kelai wood) because they are not only comfortable and warm but also very environmentally friendly. However, the laying of wooden floors is not an easy task, and its quality is directly related to the effect of the entire living room. So, what are the methods of laying wooden floors? What should we pay attention to when laying out? 

1. How to lay wooden floors(Kelai wood) 
a. A direct bonding method
This method is to glue the wooden floor (Kelai wood) directly to the ground and it is very quick to install. Before construction, however, there was a requirement for the ground. The ground should not only be clean and level but also dry. However, due to the limited flatness of the ground, it is not suitable to lay a long floor, otherwise, it is very likely to cause warping.
b. Floating laying method
The advantage of the floating laying method is that the floor(Kelai wood)  is not easy to arch, deform, and emerge from the joints, and it is easy to repair, replace and maintain. Even if the floor is damaged when moving, it can continue to be laid as long as the floor is removed. In addition, the construction period of this laying method is greatly shortened.
C, keel laying method
This is mainly based on rectangular wooden strips, which are then fastened to the floor(Kelai wood)  of the load-bearing floor and laid at a certain distance. However, the flexural strength of the floor should be sufficient, and keels should be used. There is more requirement about the material of the keel, so this method will be more time-consuming than the first two methods.

2. Precautions for laying wooden floors
1. Before laying, if there is debris such as floating dust and residual mortar on the ground that affects the wooden floor(Kelai wood) , it must be cleaned up in advance to prevent the debris on the ground from affecting the flatness of the layout or being affected by moisture and insects in the future.
2 When the area is too high, the wooden keel should be thinned, but the thickness of the keel should not be less than 20mm. Its purpose is to guarantee the overall effect. It is also important to note that all wooden keels must be treated with anti-corrosion treatment, must be fixed, and have a clear connection to the ground.
3 In addition, the wooden floor(Kelai wood)  must have a gap of 5-10mm on the wall, which is more conducive to ventilation and can prevent the floor from arching due to moisture.
