All flooring installations must use an approved underlay.

Each board has a click profile on all four sides to join the boards together simply insert the tongue into the groove at a high angle and then push them down. The boards will then click together.

To allow for any movement of the floor you will need to leave a 10mm expansion gap around the perimeter of the room. To maintain this gap during installation spacers are provided in the (purchased separately). After you have installed the floor you can cover this expansion gap with quarter round. The 10mm expansion gap also needs to be left in doorways where the floor follows through from one room to another; for this we recommend using out T-Molding.
