Technology and stages of independent laying of laminate
“Beskleev”, or in another “castle” method, can be laid the laminate of Ecoflooring almost any person. This does not need special tools. The main thing in such styling is compliance with the rule: the indentation from the walls, pipes and other objects should be at least 5 millimeters. Thanks to the indentation, the coating will “breathe”, which will prevent it from bloating from moisture and temperature changes.
The disadvantage of such a laminate is not moisture resistance, since there is no glue in the joints and any ingestion of water can lead to corruption of the coating. Cleaning is carried out with a vacuum cleaner, or a well -squeezed rag. Soap solutions should not be used, when entering the joints, they leave white stains.
It is better to provide the work on laying the laminate with adhesives with adhesives, but still, you can do it yourself.
To begin with, the floors are aligned with putty and polished, an unevenness of no more than 3 millimeters is allowed. Before laying, the floors should be clean, dry and settled at an average temperature of 18 degrees no more than two days.
A polyethylene film is laid on the prepared surface, a layer of soundproofing is placed on it, and then a special substrate for the laminate. The formed joints of the linen of the substrate need to be fixed. Let’s start laying the laminate. With an adhesive method, it is important to lay a laminate in the longitudinal direction from the window. Do not forget about retreats, as in the “castle” method.
