What do you need to pay attention to when choosing wood flooring, and what should you pay attention

Things to pay attention to when buying wood flooring.

First, quality is more important than **.

Now there are many brands of wood flooring on the market, and many businesses have played the best tactics, which often make consumers dizzy, but it should be noted that manufacturers are all for profit, and they will do everything possible to ensure their profits, so the vision is not only limited to the first, quality is the top priority.

Second, wear resistance is the key.

Consumers should choose wood flooring with different wear resistance levels according to their own usage habits, do not blindly pursue fashion, the laminate floor relief and wide board that were popular for a while have been proved to be unable to stand the test, so it is not the focus of fashion chasing new when choosing wood flooring.

3. Color is not the point.

When choosing wood flooring, the focus should not be on the color, we must see whether it is practical, some characteristics of the floor are often considered as shortcomings, such as color difference, scarring, swelling when wet, shrinking when dry, etc., but from another point of view, this is also the advantage of wood flooring, the air is wet when it is wet, so that in the dry room in winter, more moisture can be released to humidify the air.

Fourth, laying also needs to be paid attention to.

Many people will spend a lot of time to study when buying wooden flooring, but when they buy it back and lay it, they will let it go, which is not right, the installation of wooden flooring is seven points of laying and three points of quality, and it is very undesirable to pay too much attention to the quality and ignore the importance of laying.

5. Pay attention to written evidence.

Some manufacturers will guarantee that the wooden floor will not arch within five years, it should be noted that both publicity and guarantee should be evidence-based, should be written in black and white, only verbal promises or publicity is not reliable.

Sixth, it is important to inquire in person.

Many consumers only blindly listen to advertisements when buying wooden flooring, or the recommendation of neighbors, and some even listen to the recommendation of the decoration company, which is not right, now is the Internet era, information query is very convenient, you can check the brand information you want to buy from many aspects of the Internet, to see whether it is practical or not, in order to determine whether to buy.

Wood flooring is divided into the following types: solid wood flooring, parquet flooring, laminate flooring. Each type of flooring has its own advantages and disadvantages. Nowadays, people generally choose laminate flooring with high cost performance. Solid wood flooring is a choice for comfort and high-end finishing.

Second: that is, some basic identification knowledge mentioned in the following comments, moisture content, and what kind of wood is the material of the wooden floor, choose a material that suits your consumption needs.

1. Look at the texture.

The texture of different wood is different, and the texture of the same wood species is generally clearer, the better, whether the board surface is flat, and whether the technical process of the tenon is conducive to the joint of the floor. When purchasing, you may wish to look at the comparison of several brands, and the clearer the texture, the better.

2. Smell the wood.

The smell of different woods is obviously different, usually authentic balsam dalpike pea has a strong sandalwood fragrance, and its smell has the effect of repelling mosquitoes and insects. On the contrary, a poorly quality floor smells of rotten wood slag.

3. Ask the place of origin.

Learn more about the wood species and flooring, such as origin, properties and moisture content.

4. Weigh the weight.

In general, the weight of the same wood type is the same. The light weight is the unqualified one.

There are four things to pay attention to when buying wood flooring.

1. Whether it is an environmentally friendly product.

When purchasing solid wood flooring, in the eyes of most people, solid wood flooring is considered to be the most environmentally friendly flooring product, and it is also a major selling point of solid wood flooring. But the environmental protection of solid wood flooring is also relative. The hardwood floor is made of natural wood, giving the impression that it is most respectful of the environment.

2. Whether it will be deformed and cracked.

When purchasing solid wood flooring, we have heard about the problem of deformation and cracking of solid wood flooring in many cases. Most consumers believe that the deformation and cracking of solid wood flooring is inevitable, and solid wood flooring is easily deformed only by the drying of raw materials and the humidity of the air. But if the production technology is in place, the wood is dry and the boards are in place.

Solid wood flooring is not prone to cracks and deformation, especially in the production process of solid wood flooring, if the perforation is in place, the tension of the sensitive hail wood will be eliminated, and there will be no excessive deformation and cracking problems.

3. Whether the harder the wood is in the middle of the month, the more stable it is.

When buying solid wood flooring, some people think that the heavier and harder the wood, the more stable it is, and the flooring sales staff often use this trick to let consumers take a handful and measure the weight of the floor, so as not to let them doubt its quality, but the quality is not necessarily directly related.

4. The difference between production in the north and the south.

Although the air humidity in the north and south is different when purchasing hardwood flooring, when the wood is turned into a piece of furniture or flooring, it must be drilled. After all, the stability of the floor is good, and with the production technology, it has little to do with the origin of the north and the south.

The tone of the floor and the wall echo, and the delicate texture of the floor is harmoniously matched with the simple decoration style, and the overall effect is elegant and generous. Blankets spread on the floor bring some nature to the refined interior design. Different types of wood flooring have different selection methods, in addition to requiring the merchant to provide a formal test report, we can also pass some simple methods to inspect.

It should be noted that some display methods in the building materials market are not credible, such as soaking the material in water to show that it is waterproof and not deformed, and this is actually a misleading, in fact, all wood floors can not be soaked in water, although the material will be soaked in water during the destructive test of quality testing, but this does not mean that the wood flooring we buy can withstand long-term soaking.

In order to meet the needs of daily life, the wooden floors have taken waterproof measures, but the wooden floors still cannot withstand the more serious soaking. Because the cell structure inside the wood determines its wetting and drying characteristics, but the shrinkage coefficient of different floors is different, so all wood floors should be avoided from being soaked in water, and the so-called "not afraid of water" is not equal to "not deformed".

1. Poor water resistance and water resistance will lead to obvious expansion around the floor and cause the floor to arch. Moisture content is an important factor that directly affects the dimensional stability of the floor, usually the moisture content of the wood floor should be consistent with the local moisture content, otherwise the floor will produce different degrees of dimensional changes when the environment changes, so we should pay attention to whether the moisture content of the purchased floor meets the requirements of the national standard when purchasing.

2. Flame retardancy due to the flame retardant performance of the wood floor can not be too high, the simple test method can be placed on the surface of the floor with a cigarette, and after the end of combustion, the floor has no traces that cannot be removed, such as no cracks, black spots, bubbling indicates that the flame retardant performance is qualified.

3. The glued solid wood floor is made of natural wood without any bonding treatment. The parquet is made of adhesive coated board surface hot pressing, so the gluing performance is an important quality index of the product, which will directly affect the use function and life of the product.

4. Formaldehyde content Solid wood parquet and laminate flooring contain a certain amount of formaldehyde in the adhesive, which will be gradually released to the surrounding environment in a gaseous form.

5. Abrasion resistance laminate flooring has good wear resistance because there is a wear-resistant layer on its surface, and the 6000-18000R we see in the product description indicates the wear resistance, which also corresponds to the content of corundum abrasive in the wear-resistant layer. The national standard stipulates that products above 6000r are suitable for home use, while in public places must be above 9000r.

6. The difference between paint treatment and laminate flooring is that the board surface of solid wood floor and solid wood parquet has been painted, and the paint surface should be uniform, smooth and smooth when selecting. No paint leakage, no bubbles, no cracks.

First of all, it is necessary to go to the regular sales mall, and generally speaking, you should choose a large-scale and well-known sales company. Secondly, should choose a brand with a certain visibility, if consumers are not very familiar with the floor brand, a more convenient way is to choose the brand of the building materials association member units, not that the products of non-member units must be bad, but because on the one hand, the product quality of the member units of the association has a certain guarantee, on the other hand, once there is a quality dispute, consumers can complain to the building materials association, and the association will come forward to coordinate.

When inspecting the appearance quality of the floor, consumers can use visual inspection and, if necessary, a tool to measure it. For example, whether the length of the floor tongue is greater than 4 mm, whether the floor has a large and small head phenomenon, etc. In addition, it is important to know whether the moisture content of the wood meets the standards, which is the key to ensuring the quality of the floor.

When issuing invoices, it is necessary to indicate the name and grade of timber, which is necessary evidence for future complaints and lawsuits. If it is contracted by the decoration company, then you must not forget to ask the decoration company for an invoice. It is best for consumers to ask the manufacturer to be responsible for the installation, so that on the one hand, the quality of the installation can be guaranteed, and on the other hand, the phenomenon of decorating companies and flooring companies passing the buck to each other in the future can be avoided.

My colleague's home is Jianling log impression flooring, and I went directly to his store for consultation, and it feels good.

Buy some good brands, try to buy a good brand of flooring if you decorate your own home, and it may take 10 years to redecorate after a decoration, so there is no reason to use a bad floor.

Thank you for your Cicero flooring.

The first is to choose the right color must be commensurate with the wall furniture at home, and the second is to choose the size, generally speaking. The smaller the size of the floor, the greater the resistance to deformation. The third is the quality of the wood, and the fourth is the quality of the paint, mainly to see the three things:

To be even, to be smooth and smooth, and then to look at after-sales service, the so-called three-point floor seven-point installation. If you don't know what flooring is good, I think Jianling is not bad, you can go and see it.

Landlord: You have a lot of questions, but almost none of them go, you probably advertise, right?

When consumers buy wood flooring, they often think that as long as they choose the variety of wood flooring, they can let it go. In fact, this is not correct, and experts remind us that consumers should pay special attention to the following five points before the wooden floor is transported to the construction site for installation:

1.Look at the model and tree species of the wood flooring.

Check if the wood flooring shipped by the merchant is the model and tree species we ordered.

2.Look at the substrate quality of your wood flooring.

Different grades of wood flooring** vary greatly. Some unscrupulous merchants sell us second-class products and third-class products to first-class products. This requires us to keep our eyes open to see if the wooden floor has defects such as insect eyes, cracks, decay, and dead joints.

Of course, you can't be too demanding on small joints and color differences, which are the natural properties of wood.

3.Check the machining accuracy.

Assemble 10 wooden floors on the flat ground, touch them with your hands, see whether the processing quality and accuracy, finish is smooth and smooth, and whether the installation gaps and anti-deformation grooves are tightly assembled.

4.Check the moisture content.

The moisture content of wood flooring is crucial. Be sure to measure the moisture content when buying wood flooring, and even more so after unpacking before installation.

5.Check the paint quality.

**Whether the paint film on the surface of the lacquer board is uniform, plump, smooth and bubbling.

As long as the above points are guaranteed, you can say that you have bought a qualified wooden floor, and you can start to install.

1. Floor specifications.

In terms of the stability of the plank, the smaller the size of the floor, the better the resistance to deformation, so it is necessary to choose a shorter, narrower solid wood floor, and minimize the bending, twisting, scooping, shrinking, arching and other phenomena of the solid wood floor. Flooring experts believe that the short one is better than the long one; The narrow one is better than the wide, and it is cheap. But now the market is popular wide plate, the wide plate is more beautiful than the narrow plate, generous, the texture is relaxed, the pattern is complete, but the qualified wide plate must go through strict material selection and quality acceptance.

In general, wide floors should have deformation-resistant grooves on the back, and the grooves should be up to one-third of the thickness of the floor. If it is used for floor heating, it should be thin but not thick, generally 8-12mm thick.

2. Floor moisture content.

The moisture content of wooden floors is crucial. The moisture content of the purchased flooring must be equal to the local equilibrium moisture content. When buying a floor, be sure to measure the moisture content, if you don't have a moisture content tester, don't buy its board.

The method of balancing the moisture content determination is very simple, first determine the moisture content of the purchased varieties in the exhibition hall, and then open the box to test the moisture content of the purchased varieties of wood flooring, if the moisture content of the two is only +1%--2%, it is a qualified product.

3. Floor material.

Observe with your eyes whether the floor is of the same material, and whether the board surface has material defects such as cracking, decay, peeling, dead joints, insect eyes, and blue staining. Usually there is no need to be too strict about color differences, joints, textures, etc., which are the natural properties of wood. It is the color difference and the natural texture that changes that show the natural color of the solid wood floor, which is the fashion pursued by the current international home decoration.

4. Machining accuracy.

Generally, after unpacking the wooden floor, you can take out about 10 pieces of freehand assembly, touch it by hand, see whether its processing quality accuracy, finish, whether it is smooth and smooth, and whether the tenon and groove fit, installation gap, denaturation resistance groove and other assemblies are tightly fitted. Observe the tongue and groove occlusion, assembly gap, and height difference between adjacent plates.

5. Floor after-sales.

There are many wood flooring manufacturers on the market, the quality is uneven, it is recommended to choose a good brand of wood flooring, these brand manufacturers will provide perfect after-sales service, and there is a certain warranty period. It can save a lot of worry.
