Hi all,
Some advice would be great.
Im looking to install solid oiled oak flooring in my living room. The subfloor is conctrete and has DPM laid under it with no signs of damp or moisture. My plan was to lay down ply wood sheeting, then an underlay, the secret nail the wood flooring (hence why the ply is needed). I'm not in favour of glueing or floating solid wood floors.
Can anyone advise the following;
1. What are the advantages/disadvantages of solid wood flooring and engineered wood?
2. Do I need some form of DPC between the concrete floor and the palnned ply wood sheeting?
3. What underlay is good to use with solid wood floors?
4. Any recommendations on companies that offer reasonably priced oak flooring, medium dark colour (we are currently looking at the solid wood floor company smoke oak s752)?
Your help and advice would be great.
