1. Pay attention to waterproof and moisture-proof when purchasing wooden floor
Humid weather and frequent rain can damage various building materials in the home, and wooden floors are the first to bear the brunt. So when we buy and install wooden floors, we must pay attention to choosing waterproof and moisture-proof wooden floors.
Wood flooring can be divided into three categories: solid wood flooring, laminated wood flooring, and solid wood composite flooring according to different structures, each of which has different advantages and disadvantages.
Solid wood flooring is a floor decoration material formed by drying and processing natural wood. It presents natural log texture and color patterns, giving people a natural, soft, and affinity texture. However, solid wood flooring has higher requirements for paving. Once the paving is not good, it will cause a series of problems, such as noise. If the indoor environment is too humid or dry, the solid wood floor is prone to arching, warping or deformation.
The solid wood composite floor is made of interlaced laminates of different tree species, which overcomes the shortcomings of solid wood floor wet expansion and shrinkage to a certain extent. The dry shrinkage rate is small, and it has good dimensional stability. Natural wood grain and comfortable foot feel. Therefore, the waterproof and moisture-proof effect is better.
Laminate flooring is generally composed of four layers of materials, namely wear-resistant layer, decorative layer, high-density substrate layer, and balance layer. Compared with solid wood flooring, laminated wood flooring has been strengthened by hot pressing to overcome the weakness of dry shrinkage and swelling of solid wood flooring, and its dimensional stability is also stronger than the latter.
