Product Information

Once the glue is dry, sand the floorboards where the gaps were to achieve an even surface. Re-stain or refinish the floor as necessary.

Just to sum up, urethane glue is used when you need flexibility and movement of the floorboards, and water-based glue is used because it is easy to clean up and the volatile organic compound (VOC) content is very low. If your subfloor is uneven, it can cause gaps between the floated or glued down the floor. And this causes a creaking noise. Here you need to find the small hole in the plank over the gap. Then inject epoxy into it. This will not work, however, if the space is large. In this case, you will need to lay new boards down. Issues with Acclimatisation and MoistureMost glues will dry within 12 to 20 hours, all depending on the humidity levels of where they have been installed. However, for safety’s sake, allow the glue 24 hours to dry before you walk on it or start moving furniture over it. Flooring professionals consider this to be one of the most effective methods for filling in floorboard gaps.

It is important that no matter what installation method you choose, that the floorboards you have selected are of good quality as they will significantly impact the final results of your project. For a long-lasting hold, buy high quality screws as mentioned above, and put in the time to protect your floorboards to prevent squeaking and creaking in the long run.

Cut SilentBoards using a circular saw fixed with a vacuum extractor and a PCD saw blade. This method will cut boards easily and mitigate dust. Boards are fixed with board text facing up. They can also weaken the integrity of your whole floor. Filling in the gaps tightens the whole surface and prevents excessive movement of the boards.This hardness score of the wood boards tells you whether they can be easily damaged or worn, and is an indicator as to where you can lay them. For example, what type of wood board should you use in a playroom or living room? It’s specially formulated colour "Shadow" has been designed to mimic the natural shadows created between floorboards complimenting the overall finish. With this type of substrate, the nail-down installation method is not an option, so your floor will need to be glued down. This is a far superior installation method as it recognizes the natural movement of your wood boards and allows them to expand and contract to prevent any failure or noisy boards. It also provides a very strong bond between the substrate and the wooden boards, ensuring the durability of your flooring. What you have to do is cut strips of wood ever so slightly larger than the width of the gap between each of the floorboards and the same depth and then apply some glue (wood glue or similar) to each of the insides of the boards.
