How to DIY This Floor?
The easiest DIY floors are floating floors like this one! They click lock together and don’t need glue or nails - they're super easy to install and if you make a mistake, you can simply un-click them and redo it. Floating floors include laminate floors, hybrid floors, bamboo floors and even engineered timber (if you are after real wood).
What tools do I need to DIY this type of floor?
The most important tools are:
Drop Saw and / or Table Saw - to cut the floorboards and are available for $150 at most hardware stores, or you can borrow one.
Ruler or Set Square - to measure how much you need to cut for the end planks near the walls.
Pencil & Eraser - to draw the cutting lines when you reach the last planks of each row.
Other “nice-to-haves” include a DIY Flooring Kit (available at Floor venue), spirit levels, tape measures, safety equipment, and work gloves.
Pro installation tips
Floor Levelling - the subfloor refers to what you intend to lay the flooring directly over and is often concrete slabs, plywood, yellow tongue or even existing floorboards. Proper subfloor preparation is very important and you should:
Clean the subfloor
Check subfloor evenness (to prevent creaking and long-term joint damage)
Underlay - is typically a soft rubber or foam material that goes underneath the floor and provides noise protection. If you live in an apartment block, your strata may have acoustic underlay requirements that you must confirm before a project.
Expansion Gaps - between the floor and the walls to allow for natural expansion and shrinkage due to temperature and moisture changes. Consider:
Plank Width - wider planks have more expansion and should be given a slightly bigger expansion gap within the range below.
Environmental Moisture - if relative humidity is high, we recommend increasing the expansion gap size.
Heartridge Woodland Oak Oak Timber Flooring Flooring FAQs
Our Heartridge Woodland Oak flooring features a smooth brushed surface finish, as well as micro bevelled edging which brings a refined elegant ambience to your home. This is accentuated by the handscraped finish which brings life into the natural timber grains. Whats more, each plank features a three-layered core which prevents warping and cracking, as well as a UV resistant coating to protect against fading, ensuring that your floor is looking as good as new for many years to come.
One easy method of cleaning is by using a dry microdiber dust mop to remove any loose dst and debris. However, if you are using a vacuum, make sure the flooring attachment is soft. Also refrain from using abrasive materials such as steel wool as they can scratch your planks. Cleaning up spills as soon as possible is also one of the best ways to maintain your floors and make sure they are not damaged over time.
Engineered timber flooring is one way to get gorgeous real timber into your home without the hassle of glue, nails and noisy installation processes. It is essentially made of a veneer of timber attached to a plywood base which has an in-built click-lock system for easy installations. Aside from being easier to lay, engineered timbers flooring offers greater dimensional stability from moisture ingress and is also a little more affordable than solid timber. Engineered oak ranges offer beautiful European, American and French oak woods.
