Installation

There are many different methods in regards to installation of timber flooring and decking.

Many of the different packs will come with some form of installation instruction and maintenance, however it is recommended that solid strip flooring is installed by a professional.

Methods for this range from traditional nailing through the top to secret nailing, whereas the engineered flooring can be glued down or even remain unfixed to create a floating floor.

Where required, we are able to arrange installation through a number of experienced registered installers.
