The type of flooring that you plan to lay will determine which installation technique is most suitable. As an example, the method for installing tile will be different from the carpeting installation. It is important to first remove the old floor covering. Make sure the sub-floor too is in good order. Your new best wood flooring installation will go more smoothly and easily if your subfloor is clean.
Sub-floor
The subfloor, which is beneath our flooring, is what supports the floor. If you want to ensure that your subfloor will be in great condition, check it out before installing a new one. The most likely thing to notice is any major dips. If there are any defects, add support underneath the damaged area to prevent further damage. You will get a better looking floor if you smooth out your sub-floor. For tile, an uneven sub-floor can lead to breaks or cracks in the tiles.

Installing tile or pieces of flooring
To install this type flooring, you will need to cut out the tiles and measure them. Make sure you use the appropriate tile cutters when you cut tiles. It is important to have a tile cutter that will cut angles, curves and straight lines. Tile installation is a more involved process. Use chalk and divide your room into four equal-sized squares. Starting from the inside, you will work your way outwards. Please align all tiles along the edges of each square. The tiles will be aligned at the wall if you follow this method.
