How to Install a Hardwood Floor

How To Install a Hardwood Floor

This is a much more concise remake of a two-part video, I first published in 2011.

Steps:

1 - Tear out old flooring.

2 - staple down rosen paper

3 - Lay the first row, 1/2 inch away from the wall, to allow for expansion.

4 - Face nail the first row, because the nail gun won't fit.

5 - Lay in all subsequent rows and nail down with gun.

6 - Look back in amazement at how the room changed in just a few hours!!
