For years, there has been a prevailing myth that hardwood flooring and concrete slabs are like oil and water, never to mix. However, at Barefoot Flooring, we're here to shatter that misconception. Yes, hardwood flooring can indeed be installed over a concrete slab, and we're here to guide you through the process.
Understanding the Technique
Installing hardwood flooring over concrete requires a specialized technique known as "floating floor installation." This method involves placing a moisture barrier between the concrete slab and the hardwood planks to prevent any potential moisture issues. Additionally, an underlayment is laid down to provide cushioning and sound absorption, ensuring your hardwood floors feel as luxurious as they look.
The Moisture Conundrum
One of the primary concerns with installing hardwood flooring over concrete is moisture. Concrete slabs have a natural tendency to retain moisture, which can spell disaster for traditional hardwood floors. However, advancements in flooring technology have paved the way for moisture-resistant hardwood options, making it feasible to achieve that timeless hardwood look even on concrete surfaces.
