Hi folks,
I'm planning on laying solid wood oak boards on elastilon over tile. If I have boards sitting in the rooms they are to be installed in for 2/3 weeks beforehand and then I use a steamer to get the wallpaper off the walls - will I be able to lay the boards immediately after - or will the additional moisture I have created cause problems?
Also, I guess the bigger the expansion gap around the edges the better - but skirting is only going to cover up around 10mm or so. What do you do when a higher gap is recommended? I really don't want to have to use beading - are there alternative solutions?
Thanks in advance!
