Flooring Installation
When it comes to flooring installation, there are several ways to install wood, tile, and carpet. Nailing, gluing, and stretching are the most widely used installation processes. Your floors are what hold everything in your house – it is important to get this installation correct. Therefore, trust your local flooring installation experts at The Carpet House for a successful solution. We specialize in various installation methods and the differences are:
Nail-Down
Nail-Down is the most common way of hardwood flooring installation, and it uses a specific technique known as blind nailing. Blind nailing guarantees that wood planks are properly nailed to the subfloor of your home. We use tongue and groove planks to ensure you never see the nails in your hardwood flooring after installation.
Glue-Down
Glue-Down is a popular option for carpet and tile, but sometimes wood floors, too. We slather a special glue onto your subfloor that keeps your flooring material in place. If your subfloor has dips or raises, your floor will mold itself to fit that shape. Therefore, have your subfloor is examined by a contractor to ensure it’s sturdy enough for your flooring material.
Stretching
When we install carpet, we utilize a technique known as stretching. Stretching is a common process for carpet because it guarantees that your new carpet fits tight against your subfloor. If your carpet has ripples or starts feeling loose, it wasn’t installed properly. Contact The Carpet House for professional installation.
