There are few different ways currently exists in terms of hardwood flooring installation in Toronto.
Here are main systems used by professional wood flooring installers:

  • Tongue and groove system: One plank of wood material has a groove on its one side and end the other side and end of the wooden plank has a tongue i.e a wooden extend along an edge center
Further, the planks could be glued down to the sub floors or nailed down ( which is not recommended for the most engineered flooring material).

  • Click or lock Flooring installation system. In this case, two planks made of solid wood ( or engineered or laminated) are simply clicked together like a puzzle. Such system is perfect for self flooring installation. Minimal tools required and less construction mess is produced during the installation. This system is also beneficial for replacement flooring process as well as renovation. Limited solid hardwood flooring are design for the click system ( mostly used for the laminated and engineered flooring material).
  • Glue-down method is widely used within the flooring installation industry, especially for parquet type of wood flooring. It is also popular due to the fact that parquet floors could be glue-down to the concrete sub floors. However, glue-down method is not limited strictly to the parquet hardwood flooring and could be effectively used for engineered hardwood flooring installation as well.
There are many factors that could affect the system or method being used for flooring installation.  Additional research and knowledge about different installation systems will enable you to make an informative choice.

Engineered hardwood floors have a natural (solid) hardwood competent as a top layer, so by properly maintaining/cleaning your engineered hardwood floors you will be able to enjoy its beautiful look and high quality for many years ahead. Here is some tips on how to take care of your newly installed or renovated engineered floors.

Although it might seems obvious, nevertheless many people simply forget to clean liquid or chemical spills right away. Some liquid substance can leave a stain if unattached for some time on the floor. Since engineered floors contain natural wood part in its structure, it is  best to remove the spill as soon as its has accrued in order to prevent any visible stains in the future. In addition, as any hardwood floors, engineered floors was not made to carry high level of moisture concentration for a long period of time, planks could expend and thus should to be removed and replaced with new ones.

Floor areas under the rug should be cleaned regular, due to the possible moisture or dust collected under it. Although rugs could prevent engineered floors from screeches, the dirt and moisture under it could damage your floor. Thus, it is useful to use rugs that made out of natural material, so it can "breath".

Last, but not least procedure that will help maintain  beautiful look of your engineered floors is regular sweeping and moping ( two to three times a week, or as necessary). It is also preferable to use soft mops and brooms. If you are a pet owner, it is helpful to groom your pet's paws regular as well. By taking those simple steps, you can indeed prolong the look and quality of your engineered floors.
