Installation
The installation technology is standard and clear. The following sequence of actions must be followed:
Laying the underlay. It is stretched and fixed on the sides. It is better to leave an unfilled space of about 1.2 mm wide along the walls. The underlay is laid perpendicular to the material without overlapping.
Wooden blocks are also installed along the walls.
Installation should begin from the most distant corner. The panel is placed with the tongue in the direction of the second row. Then, on the second row, the panel is cut so as to obtain a staggered joint.
The second row is a short section and the colombia mobile database of two rows is continued simultaneously. The lower part of the fastening is lubricated with a thin layer of glue. After fixing, the edge is cleaned with a clean cloth.
The most popular and in-demand is the Lock fixation. The panels are joined by tapping the end with a wooden block and a hammer. In this case, glue is not required. However, this method requires experience in aligning the joint.
The CupsClic system is also popular, which allows you to connect the slabs by simply clicking the lock. The chamfered panel is inserted into the groove at an angle of 40 degrees, and then returned to the horizontal position.
NOTE! When purchasing laminate with a chamfer, special attention should be paid to the locking connection.
How to bypass communications
The biggest challenge in laying the floor for beginners is bypassing the communications. To do this, you need to place the board as close as possible to the pipe and draw its intended location with a simple pencil. The distance from the edge of the wall to the center of the pipe can be measured with a ruler. Next, you need to saw a hole of the intended shape. You can use a jigsaw to cut out straight sections, and a cutter to cut out a round hole.
In this case, the diameter of the hole must be 15-20 mm larger, i.e. so that the laminate is not flush with the pipe. This will allow you to lift the board and insert it into the lock. The cut piece must be saved. Later, it can be inserted into the resulting gap or use a sealant. You can also buy special strips in stores that cover the resulting hole between the laminate and the pipe. Thanks to the wide range of colors, they can be matched to any floor color.
Manufacturers offer a wide range of floor coverings with different characteristics. Floor coverings with a chamfer are considered more wear-resistant and durable compared to regular laminate.
First, you need to level the surface.
