When changing the old flooring or with the arrangement of the new floor, the floorboard is the most optimal option that is distinguished by practicality, availability and safety in use. Despite the popularity of the genital board, the process of its installation for many seems quite complicated. Therefore, we will look at the features of the flooring on the flooring.

Manufacturing technology and benefits of the floorboard

The floorboard is distinguished by high operational and technical properties. Based on its attraction, it is in one row with a more expensive laminate and parquet board. In the manufacture of genital board, a thorough drying of the tree occurs to a certain point of content in it moisture. Therefore, this material has a long service life.

Among one of the indisputable advantages of the gender is its available cost, which makes it such popular. In addition, it has a high thermal insulation capacity and provides well insulation.

The floorboard perfectly fits into any type of interior, during operation does not change the shape and has an attractive appearance.

The main components of this material are:

  • spikes;
  • grooves;
  • sliding ventilation channels.

The most optimal variant of the tree suitable for the manufacture of genital boards is larch. Because of its strength, durability, it is characterized by good performance.

If we compare the installation of laminate with the installation of a parquet board, then the second - requires less time for laying. At the same time, it is environmentally friendly and harmless, since no extraneous impurities are added to it in the process of manufacture.

The floorboard has a form of a massive product that is made of solid trees. If the length and width of the products are compact, then the installation process occurs quickly and easily, as it has developed special grooves providing boards. The flooring procedure in large areas does not take more than two days.

The main indicator of the quality of the genital board is the material from which it was built. But, almost all types of genital boards have such advantages:

1. Low thermal conductivity and sound conductivity coefficient allows you to maintain heat for a long period of time and provides comfort living in the house of people.

2. If all the processes of drying the tree and the technology of its workpiece, the floorboard has a high coefficient of strength, the duration of its use is twenty years and more.

3. It is characterized by the absence of chemicals, harmful components and other impurities, is great for the arrangement of the housing of people suffering from allergies.

4. If we compare the cost of geepboard with similar materials, then its price is much lower and more affordable.

5. If the wood coating is present in the room, then a healthy microclimate is provided to him, as the tree can accumulate moisture when it is excess in the air, and to give it difficulty.

6. Does not require long-term preparation for installation. Quickly installed and removed. A standard tool kit is required to work.

7. Unpretentious in care, it is well wash and cleaned.

There are several categories that distinguish the quality of the geepboard:

  • A class;
  • In class;
  • C-class;
  • Extra-class.

They differ in the quality of the wood used in the production process, by the number of bitch, jar, cracks, chips, and also for the price. The extra-class floor board has the lowest cost.

After working on cutting down a tree, it enters the drying chambers for storage and drying. When the finished products are already dried, the process of sorting them into classes. Sorting depends on the number of defects that the tree acquires on pre-processes.

Before mounting the floorboard, it is necessary to build a base in the form of a rough floor. The main requirements for it is high strength to avoid the deformation of the material.

When buying a geepboard, choose options that are made from larch, as they have the highest strength and practically do not give the floor made of oak array.

Varieties of bases under the laying of the floorboard

The arrangement of the adhesive floor is arranged over any types of overlappings or support pillars. There are such species of grounds that are suitable for laying a germ board:

  • concrete coating pre-aligned with polymer or concrete tie;
  • the surface of the lag mounted on brick supports or any type of coating;
  • the surface of moisture-resistant plywood;
  • old wooden floor covering;
  • chernovaya floor from unnecessary sawn timber.

Installing the floorboard, most often is the final stage in the arrangement of the room. Before this process, usually replace windows, doors, wall decoration and ceiling. During the installation of the floorboard, consider the moment that it is very unstable before high humidity. Before it is installed, the humidity of the draft floor should be measured, which should not exceed twelve percent.

At the same time, air humidity in the room should not be more than sixty percent, and if the humidity is less than forty percent, dryness and cracking of the boards will occur.

Considering the design of the floorboard, laid on a concrete basis, it should be noted:

  • hollow slab overlap;
  • technoflora;
  • waterproofing;
  • screeds made of cement-sandy solution;
  • directly floating board.

Tip: Before mounting the board, you should remove it from the boxes and put in the room at least 24 hours. Material must adapt to the microclimate of the room.

Varieties of draft coatings under the laying of floors from the board:

1. The most common floors installation scheme is its label. Lagas are called wooden paving boards having a rectangular section. Their fixation on the draft base occurs with the help of mastic or self-proof. Laying the lag occurs in the perpendicular direction to the installation of the floorboard.

After installing the lag, the process of alignment is the process. To do this, they substitute chip. In addition, there is a special system of adjustable lag, allowing you to solve the mechanical method of twisting the necessary sections.

2. When the flooring of the floor-resistant plywood, its laying on almost any reason, including on lags, if necessary, in the additional strengthening of multilayer structural parts of the floor. A standard set of female installation work on such a coating involves the preliminary alignment. Laying the plywood sheets cut into longitudinal parts is diagonally, in relation to laying of the genital boards. Plywood is fixed with screws or dowels. It is recommended to leave the seams of technological purpose, when the floor arranges from plywood, to compensate for its expansion and narrowing with temperature drops.

The installation of such a floor includes availability:

  • rough base;
  • insulating substrate;
  • directly moisture-resistant plywood;
  • outdoor coating;
  • board.

Tip: If the floor coating is concrete with a sandy-cement screed, then ordinary glue is used to fix plywood. When choosing glue, make sure that it came to work both with plywood and concrete. Such a procedure is acceptable for wooden floors.

When the plywood is laid, the process of its grinding and removal of all pollution and dust occurs. Before installing the flooring, the surface is processed by primer, and then fix the boards. The main floor is also required to polish, hide varnish and butter.

3. Installing the genital boards to the existing floor involves checking the old sex for the presence of defects, the reliability of fasteners and the strength of the base. If there is a need, old worn boards or damaged fasteners need to be replaced.

Tip: Install the sex board over the old floor in such a way as to ensure the perpendicular compound.

Experienced builders give recommendations on the dismantling of the old floor and the arrangement of a concrete screed, as such a floor is able to serve much longer, but if financial capabilities do not allow this to do this, then it is quite realistic to install a gender on an old wooden coating.

In addition, a lot of attention should be paid to the choice of insulation and waterproofing. These materials must have high quality characteristics. The insulation must be unsecured for rodents, moisture resistant and not give shrinkage. Waterproofing should differ in operation.

If the floor is located in the building of the first floor, then its insulation is required at mandatory. It is allowed not to insulate the floor of the first floor in the presence of a basement with heating. For insulation, it is recommended to use basalt or mineral wool, it is distinguished by vapor permeability and good thermal insulation characteristics.

The thermal insulation in the space of honey is lagged, while it is necessary to ensure the tight fit. Parpural waterproofing is installed on top of thermal insulation. Note that there is no space between the draft floor and these layers, to four centimeters thick, providing natural floor ventilation. Otherwise, fungus and mold will be formed on the floor, which will lead to its premature damage.

To protect the multi-layer design from moisture coming from below, it is recommended to use waterproofing membranes having a high parpropuscular ability. If evaporations are freely circulated in the underground space, the tree will last much longer.

The best is the floorboard made from the Siberian larch or oak. These types of trees are resistant before ultraviolet, moisture and temperature drop. In a room, in which people are impermanent and there are small loads, for example, a float board, made of aspen or okhovy tree species, is used in the children's or bedroom. Fine boards are quite rare, as the basis of which pine or fir protrudes. They are more suitable in the construction of draft floors or spans.

The shape of the floorboard depends on the personal preferences of the hosts. Based on the strength, the optimal option is the use of forty millimeter board. Too thick boards through time can be deformed, since due to the high thickness during the drying process there remains moisture.

The choice of genital boards belonging to a certain variety affects the purpose of the room, the laying area, the subsequent finish and the financial capabilities of the hosts. The floor board of the highest grade has a smooth surface and a beautiful, clear drawing. Therefore, after installation, such a floor is opened with varnish. Options for the first or second variety have a small amount of bitch, which also looks beautiful without painting. If the subsequent painting of the floor is planned, then undoubtedly choose the sex board of the third or fourth grade.

When laying a geepboard, in most cases only tongue materials are used, which are characterized by ease and ease of installation. Straight boards after a certain period of time are deformed and gap appear in them.

Laying flooding floors

The tank board is a standard board design with the presence of grooves that snap on each other during their installation. Thus, it turns out to achieve better fixation and strong connection.

Choosing the direction of the floor laying should be guided by the light stream. The boards are laid in parallel to it. If you plan to install the floor in the vestibule or in the corridor room, you should proceed from the vehicle vector by which the floor is installed.

There are two ways to lay boards:

  • with displacement of elements;
  • without displacement elements.

At the boarding board, sexual laying requires the presence of an ideal backdrop of the boards. The lack of experience in this issue will not help achieve perfectly even straight corners, so in this case, it is better to trust a specialist. When laying boards in this way, it is recommended to purchase or make a template version, which will be cut. At the edges, the room also needs to withstand a certain indent. To ensure longitudinal progress, the presence of an interval between the board and the wall is necessary, the size of which is from 0.5 to 2 cm. At the end of the installation, the tensum is fastened.

For a clearer understanding of the gripped type flooring installation process, we suggest a brief instruction:

1. The presence of fasteners or protrusions on the boards allows you to combine them with each other. But, when laying the first tipped board, the protrusion must be located near the wall. This installation will facilitate the bonding process of subsequent boards.

2. The connection of the second board with the first is happening with the help of groove-thickening contact. It is not recommended to use nails when carrying out this procedure, as they are subject to corrosion, which will provoke frequent floor washing, it is possible to get risk of their hats, leading to early wound.

3. As a retainer, use self-tapping screws with an optimal diameter of four millimeters and up to seven centimeters.

4. There are two ways to fix boards:

  • with the presence of tilt of self-pressing in forty-five degrees;
  • without tilt - with all the hats of self-tapping screws close up using sealant.

The first option is featured aesthetics, and the second - reliability.

5. Fastening the extreme parts of the boards located near the walls is carried out solely with the help of screws.

Flood grinding occurs. This requires sandpaper or grinding. If there are large irregularities, it is required to spend a cyclical. Next, the surface is opened with varnish, and when done is painted.


Floor Laying Parquet Board: Technology and Features

For the manufacture of a parquet board, a tree is used. There are several types of parquet board:

  • massive - there are three layers, for the first it is used solid wood hardwood, for the second - solid wood coniferous rocks, and for the third soft wood;
  • the extra-board - the first layer of it is also solid, but for the manufacture of the second and the third uses waste components or soft wood species.

To styling the parquet under the wood texture, another top layer is placed on it. The ratio of the thickness of the parquet is from 7 mm to 2.5 cm. The quality of the audio and thermal insulation depends on the thickness of the parquet board, as well as the ability to withstand certain loads.

When laying a board, a thickness of up to two centimeters, a smooth concrete base is required. If the thickness exceeds this border, the parquet board is laid on the lags.

When the parquet board is already purchased, it is necessary to unpack it and leave for a day in the room in which it will be installed. Before it is installed, it is necessary to complete all repair work, especially wall decoration. Since it will be tight to them.

If the parquet board is installed on an old wooden base. It is recommended to check it for unsuitable boards and replace them. If there are large gaps, it is recommended to use PVA glue to fill them. Next follows the process of the floor cyclical.

If the parquet board is installed on the base of concrete, make sure that it is fixed and in the absence of high drops. The concrete coating should not be wet to check it on the presence of moisture, the polyethylene film should be used, which is covered by the floor per day. If, after removing the film, condensate is absent, boldly begin to lay the parquet, but before this apply primer to the concrete base.

Mounting Conditions Parquet Boards:

  • the room temperature is about +17 degrees;
  • air humidity from 45 to 60%.

Under these parameters, the coating will serve longer.

There are two ways to install a parquet board, up to 2 cm thick:

1. Floating - First, the installation of a polyethylene film is made, 18 cm flashes, scotch is used to fix them, then the foam polyethylene or cork substrate is mounted, metallized livestock is used to smoke joints, the parquet board is used.

Parquet board is installed perpendicular to the window. The laying of the first board occurs a thorough base to the wall, which is pre-cut, for a more dense fit of the boards. The interval between the wall and the board depends on the total length of the room. For a length of one meter, it is necessary to have a half centimeter clearance. To fix the board at the wall requires the installation of a special peg.

2. Adhesive - suitable for spacious, large rooms. This method involves the installation on the draft base of moisture-resistant plywood, to the surface of which glue is applied, and then a parquet board is installed.
