  1. How to install laminate flooring step by step

  2. Prepare the flooring Before you can install laminate flooring, you will need to acclimatize the boards by leaving them in the room where you are laying for at least two days.

  3. Prepare the room A waterproof membrane will need to be laid before you can install laminate flooring on top of the concrete oversight too. Cut the skirting round temporarily and once it is fitted remove and put to one side for later. 

  4. Prepare the linings Unless you are laying the wood flooring continuously between two or more rooms, you need to work out at each doorway where the floor will finish and the thresholds will be. They need to be fitted so they are under the center of the door when it is closed.

  5. Choose which direction to install Laminate flooring should either be laid in the same direction that the light shines into the room, or if there are windows all around along the longest wall.

  6. Underlay Grab the right underlay, it will either be in a roll or square tiles. If it's square tiles just lay enough to get the first few rows down, and lay the tiles in the opposite direction to which the floor boards will go down. 

  7. Start laying Laying from left to right and with the tongue facing the wall get the first boards clicked together end to end. Use 8-10mm spacers to leave an expansion gap around the perimeter. The last board will need cutting to length. 

  8. Clicking the boards together When I first learned to install laminate flooring I would get a few boards clicked together, get to the end of a row and when fitting the last board in the first in that row would pop out!

  9. Cutting boards All types of man made board like MDF, plywood and laminates that contain glues and resins will take the edge off saw blades much more quickly than natural timber.
