General Instructions for Solid Wood Flooring Installation

Congratulations with your new Solid Wood Flooring. Before starting with the installation, we advise you to read the following instructions carefully.

The floor fitter is the most important person to the final customer. He is the person who finally decides how the finished floor will look overall.Therefore it is most important he works from several boxes at the same time. (four—five boxes recommended).This enables him to decide on a correct colour and grain structure mix,and so achieve the best looking floor possible. Discoloured or imperfect boards must be discarded at the fitters discretion.

A NOTE OF CAUTION

Wood is a beautiful product of nature, but due to the intrinsic volatility of most species, it is always a   possibility that up to 5% of the product may not be usable for its intended purpose.

BEFORE INSTALLING

Your Solid Wood Flooring is a 100% natural product This means that despite our very modem processing of wood and critical selections and controls, the intrinsic characteristics of each plank remain. By following a few basic instructions, while installing your flooring we guarantee you a beautiful result. Our fitting instructions are based on our own experience and cannot replace the official rules and prescriptions.
         
General
Changes in moisture levels(humidity) will cause natural expansion and contraction. The result will be seen as small gaps appearing during winter (low, in house humidity levels) or boards tightening in summer (higher humidity levels). To help maintain correct humidity levels(45%-~60%)you may consider inversting in a humidifier. This machine can also have health benefits for the people who live or work in the same envlment as the flooring.
