Wood Flooring: Nail & Staple Installation Instruction

The nail down method is used primarily when installing a solid wood floor. Since solid wood floors are usually thicker, they need to be nailed in order to stay in place properly. As we discussed in our article titled Solid or Engineered Flooring, which is right for me, solid wood flooring has a tendency to expand and contract more than engineered flooring. With that in mind, using a glue down method would prove to be a huge mistake with a solid floor. There are some exceptions to this rule. One such exception would be the Natural Reflections series by Bruce. While most solid wood floors are 3/4" thick, this product comes 5/16" thick. Since the product is much thinner than a conventional solid wood floor, you experience less expansion and contraction. This product can be stapled or glued down.

Nowadays, most consumers are getting away from the solid wood flooring in favor of the engineered products because of their superior stability. There are some situations however, where the solid wood flooring might be beneficial. One such application might be if you have existing solid wood floors in certain areas of your home, and you want to extend that flooring into other areas. As we mentioned previously, if you would like to learn more about solid wood floors versus engineered, read our article titled Solid or Engineered Flooring, which is right for me.

D.I.Y. NOTE: Nail down installations are not generally recommended as a Do-It-Yourself project. This type of installation requires certain professional tools and experience.

The staple down installation method has become more popular since engineered wood flooring has grown in popularity. This installation method is mainly used with engineered plank or strip wood floors over a plywood or wood sub-floor. Certain wood floors require specific types of staple sizes. It is recommended that you find out what type of staples are required for the series of flooring you have selected. The staple down method has been proven to be a good choice for certain product lines.

D.I.Y. NOTE: Staple down installations would be recommended as a Do-It-Yourself project for someone with a moderate amount of skill using power tools. In most cases, a special stapler is required which can sometimes be rented.
