Hi. I'm about to install (as a first timer) Solid wood flooring in my living room and Hall. Both screed subfloors. House is 30yrs old I have a couple of questions:
1. When doing the hall. What do i do about the 15mm expansion gap needed at the front door? Is beeding required here or would the wood go right up to the door?
2. In the living roon (and hall) i'm taking off the skirting to get a better look and leaving the 15mm expansion gap. At the moment, i'm opting for underlayment but with the gap. How do i stop the floor moving about once i have everything back on it?
As a last side note. I'm not sure whether to go T&G or try out the Easy-Fit, Click Loc type boards. Anyone had any bad experiences either way?
Thanks in advance.
