Today I am going to show you everything you need to know for Hardwood Floor Installation (Nail Down) Like a pro! Installing hardwood floors for the first time is not hard at all and you don't really need any special tools. Having some more specialized tools, like any project, makes the floor install process much faster but floor can be installed without them if necessary.

Items / Tools you will need:
-Underlayment, roofing felt or tar paper will work, or purchase something that is a bit thicker and will help make the hardwood flooring a bit quieter.
-Staple gun for the underlayment
-Belt sander if your subfloor has any unevenness
-Method to make some cuts; circular saw, miter saw, jigsaw or oscillating tool. Don't need all of them but again, they make things move faster.
-A framing nailer to start and finish the floor is necessary, you can floor everything with this nailer but a flooring nailer will give you better results much faster.
-Chalk like, tape measure, hammer and crow bar.
-Obviously you need some hardwood flooring. Make sure it has been in the room for 10-14 days to acclimate.

Nice work. I've been doing flooring and home improvements for years now. One thing I would add it is always good to have your starting strip on the exterior wall, that way you know the rest of your flooring will continue straight. Which by the looks of that window that it exactly what you did. Just a pro tip. Love your channel!
@baconeggstoast5327

Cool Dad, cool kid! It's great that he lets his son work as an assistant partner! No better way to prepare the boy for real life! Thanks for the video! As I watch the progress of the installation, I wanted to suggest using a bigger diameter punch, to drive any nails in that didn't quite make it. It is way easier to hammer them down with a bigger diameter punch! I am all for making life on an install as easy as it can be! Also, I only use in-floor wooden registers now, no more lay-on metal grids! They are permanent and prevent people from stooping on them. But most of all, they look elegant and professional. You might also want to use a plank puller for the last piece against the wall, to tighten up the gap between boards in a row. Your gaps are larger than necessary. One other trick: use a scrap piece of board, about 5-6 inches wide, as a "chaser" to tap boards lightly when tightening up along a row of boards. Hitting the edge of a grooved board with the metal hammer can make a serious kink in the groove edge! And as for the perfectionist that I tend to be: the rule of pros is to never align joint lines of boards across several rows. On the birds eye view, I noticed that you had quite a few of those. The idea is to create a look of a homogeneous wooden floor, where one doesn't see the joints between board, because they are spread out randomly all over. When two or more boards are joined in several rows in the same line-up, this balance is disturbed. So the assistant's job would be to see how long the next board to place would have to be to keep up that spread of board seams. I heard you actually explain it, but then you did not abide by that rule, lol! Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed watching. Hope you don't mind my comments, they were meant in a spirit of learning from each other! I love hardwood floors!

Great work good job the only thing I would add is to run your floor left-to-right so that way when you're beating the boards into the butt joints you're hitting the tongue not the groove and you won't break your wood that and stand on the wood as you nail it so it's tighter to the floor

@traviscolla6475
@traviscolla6475 2 года назад
A tips I would recommend for the first couple and last couple of rows (where you can't use your floor nailer) is do not put an underlayment there. Instead you put some construction adhesive under the floorboards against the subfloor and use the finish nailer (where it will be hidden under trim and/or through the tongue like in the video). Those wimpy 18 or even 16 gauge nails will not hold up and you will end up with small gaps overtime across those rows. The construction adhesive will help stop that from happening.

The floor looks great. Nothing like the look of hardwood. Interesting that you ran the underlayment in the same direction of the floor. I've installed hardwood in our entire upstairs (except the bathrooms, of course) and every underlayment product I've used all said to run it perpendicular to the floor so there is never a seam that runs along a joint in the flooring. Did you run into any problems where some boards were not the exact same width? I never had a batch of flooring that wasn't perfect from box to box. I would take the time to find planks that matched for each row. It prevents gaps and uneven rows. If you disregard it long enough, the potential for a really ugly gap becomes greater.

But isn’t that weird with a pipe underneath pushing against the subfloor? However, if that’s true, we should never nail down that area I guess

Put nails into the pipe so it pushes against the nails and not the subfloor.
