Frequently Asked Questions
Is tongue and groove engineered wood difficult to install?
Yes, it is generally considered more difficult to install than a click system. It requires the use of adhesive and a greater degree of skill to achieve a professional, gap-free finish, which is why we highly recommend our expert installation service.
Why is tongue and groove installation often preferred for underfloor heating?
Tongue and groove engineered wood, when glued down, provides a solid and stable surface that maximises the efficiency of underfloor heating. The adhesive ensures the planks remain flat and secure, which is crucial for even heat distribution.
Can tongue and groove engineered wood be installed as a floating floor?
While it is possible to install tongue and groove engineered wood as a floating floor using a specialist wood flooring adhesive in the joints, this is not the recommended method. For best results and maximum stability, we always advise a full-surface glue-down installation.
