HOW ARE THESE SPC FLOORS INSTALLED?

 

If this flooring seems right for you, then follow along for a complete guide on how to install it in your home or office. In 10 simple steps, you’ll have the flooring you desire and the look you’re craving!

1. START WITH YOUR FIRST PLANK

Begin with taking the first plank and use a 3/8” spacer to place it up against the wall. Select the wall that is most visible upon entering the room.

2. THEN MOVE ONTO THE SECOND PLANK

Now, you can take the second plank and carefully place it tightly next to the first one. This pattern will continue.

3. MAKE SURE TO FOLD DOWN THE PANELS

After they’re next to each other, fold down the panel in one swift movement. Then press down until you hear the planks click together. There shouldn’t be too much force needed.

4. INSTALL SPACERS

Once you hit the end of the wall, put a spacer of 3/8” in thickness against the wall. Make sure to measure the space to ensure the last plank will fit.

5. CUT THE FLOORING USING A JIGSAW

Cut the piece to fit using a jigsaw. Make sure the plank is face down when cutting to reduce the appearance of any damage.

6. MOVE ONTO THE SECOND ROW

As you move onto the second row, keep the length of the planks at a minimum of 10”.

7. KEEP GENERAL DISTANCES

Minimum distances of the short ends should not be less than 6”.

8. MANEUVER THE SECOND PLANK FOR THE SECOND ROW

Repeat steps 1, 2, and 3 as you move onto other rows.

9. ADJUST AS NEEDED

 Every room is different. Pivot as needed until you get to the last row.

10. FINALLY, FOCUS ON THE LAST ROW

When you get to the last row, make sure the minimum width is no thicker than 2” wide. Remember the distance of the wall is also 3/8”. 

OUR FINAL THOUGHTS

However, this type of flooring isn’t for everyone. If SPC flooring isn’t for you, that’s completely ok! Home and business renovations are personal, and therefore, the selections associated with them should be treated in the same capacity.
