Laminate is an excellent material for floor covering. It has a presentable look, and the price is available. Recommendations for laying this material are simple. But there are requirements, without complying with your work turn out to be in vain. Now we learn more about how to lay a laminate.
1
The surface of the floor in front of the construction material is needed to clean and align. The laminate must be seen in the apartment a couple of days (the package is not necessary). The humidity in the premises is different, the material over this period will take its form.
2
Laying of laminate on wooden or concrete floor, fiberboard, chipboard, linoleum and plywood are allowed. Alignment of the concrete surface is made by the usual tie on cement or mix (bulk sex), which can be purchased in construction supermarkets. The wooden floor grind the machine, rotting the boards change and the construction level check irregularities. In other cases use substrateIf the unevenness of the floor is from 3 to 5 mm. This base does not only level the surface, but also insulates, has sound, thermo, waterproofing. Therefore, when you buy laminate, immediately take the substrate, plinth and thresholds.
3
When calculating the number of building material, it is necessary to consider what way you should retain it. Direct masonry or diagonal. The direct laying will require an increase in percent, EDAC 5, on a diagonal - 15%. The second option is less economical, but it looks better. No need to regret money on the material, it will be better to be with a margin than not enough.

If the room is regular shape (rectangular or square), the calculations of the laminate may be any method. The only note the direction of the light. The sun's rays should fall parallel to the direction of laying. Thus, the preparation is over, now for work. Gender equal, it unroll polyethylene (perpendicular laying laminate), from above the substrate. The first laminate plank will be moved smoothly, it affects the whole look of the room. We start from the far corner, laid the first row. Locks that are adjacent to the wall, saw off jigsaw. Between the laminate board and the wall spacer set, 7-8 mm thick, around the perimeter of the room.

These spacers will not allow the board to bend if the laminate to increase in size over time. The first tile to fasten a second end, summing it at an angle of 30 ° degrees, and inserting the pressing down. The excess part of the last board cut the jigsaw. The next series begin to put a half-laminate tiles. And so one plank fastened. This is done not only for beauty, but more for strength. Second row can be connected to the ends, and then fastened to the first, as you prefer.

When installing remote corners of the room do not always get docked at an angle. Then connect the laminate tiles in the plane and incited by a small block of wood with a hammer. Method for laying an adhesive laminate is not much different from the lock. A little more work (lubricates the joints with glue). Only if one plate is damaged, do not get replaced. But less adhesive laminate liquid permeable.
7
When all the plates of the laminate of bed, the first thing we remove the spacers. We make the last "finishing touches." Attached to the wall skirting stykuya laminate using a plastic or metal profile with a door threshold.
It's nice to be in a beautiful room after repair. Especially because all the work done by hand. Maybe there is a little error in laying laminate flooring. After all, you did the first time. In the following you will not repeat the more mistakes will know what and how.
