Should I Float or Glue my Trafficmaster Floor?
| Engineered Wood, Installation, Trafficmaster |
Reader’s Question:
We are installing Traffic Master Engineered Hardwood Flooring. Are we supposed to use glue and if so, what kind/type of glue.
Can this be used as a floating floor without glue?
Flooring FX: I personally have glued this product down and it looks and performs fantastic. It is currently 2 years old and looks like the day we installed it.
I remember the box shows directions for gluing it down, but I have heard of people floating it and believe that is is advertised as a floating floor.
We used the standard glue available from Home Depot on the floor we put down. We bought quite a bit of it and did a great job putting it down. I highly recommend gluing it down as it makes it feel extremely solid.
We installed the Trafficmaster flooring as a floating floor 3 years ago and it looks as good now as the day we laid it. The only thing I would have done differently is taken the wall molding off and re-hung it after the floor was in.
