Installation and Surface Protection

Perhaps the most important installation tool you can possess is KNOWLEDGE.  However, if you have a need for staples, nails, glue, underlayment, sound dampening materials, floor protection, or the many other things required for your install, this is where to go.

Wide and Long

Most of the hardwood flooring products we sale are of the wide variety, be they engineered or solid.

Products 5” in width and more require glue, either full spread or glue assist.

We offer adhesives from the best in the business, Mapei and Bona, from sausages to pails and everything you may need to apply them.

Get the Right Stuff

With wide plank flooring becoming increasingly popular, glue-down is becoming more of the norm than the exception with new installs.  Why not remove a step from the process with Mapei’s line of moisture barrier glue.

In full spread applications, Mapei guarantees 100% moisture barrier performance without a primer, just their 995 and 985 glue.  Using an already superior product like Mapei, this can be viewed as more of a perk, reducing the time you spend on floor prep.

If moisture isn’t a concern, Mapei offers several more choices of glue that are more budget friendly.

ahh.... The Weight

Installing wide plank flooring onto a wood subfloor or over radiant heat with sleepers?

Full spread glue with the assistance of staples, more often referred to as glue-assist, keeps your floor smooth and tight while the glue cures.

This is always preferable to using weights, sand buckets, stacks of wood or whatever else you may have to find to weigh the floor down while the glue dries.

I See IIC in Your Future

When you need that extra bit of sound attenuation, are you using an inferior product?  Ecore is an extremely easy to use and versatile product.  This underlayment is a rubber composite that comes in rolls, but unlike other rolled goods it has a memory.  What this means for you is, you roll it out, it lays flat, and won’t try to roll back up on you.  No more of those edges that you need to weigh down.  Using this product will ensure a solid feeling floor with ample sound dampening characteristics.

After you have installed a prefinished product or you have just gotten done finishing, you need to make sure that your floor is protected during any phase of remodel or construction that follows.  RamBoard, Surface Liner, AllProtect, and all of their other product lines relating to surface protection, are your friend.

Cover It Up

Ram Board is the most recognizable name in floor protection.  When it comes to stairs and flooring this is a product you can use for the protection of your newly installed project.

But there are limitations in its use.  There is a need to wait for your finish to cure before covering your new floor.  There are also times when you cannot tape to the floor, severely limiting your ability to use Ram Board.

Let it Breathe

Surface Liner Vapor is a breathable, and reusable, floor protection that requires no wait times for curing.

This floor protection material allows the new finish to continue to off gas while still adding a protective layer to your new floor.  After the cure time on your finished floor has been surpassed, you can then add a layer of Ram Board for even more protection.

This product is also available to order with your business name and/or logo.  Please inquire about wait times and minimum quantities per order for this extra service.

For the Best in Reusable Surface Protection

ALLProtect Original is a padded, highly absorbent, extremely durable and reusable, protection solution for heavy-traffic areas on floors, stairs (in red for high visibility), and elevated surfaces.  The self-stick backing allows for a quick, easy, one-man application, an exact, edge-to-edge fit on vertical surfaces and stairs, and a non-slip work surface even when wet or greasy.   This can be used to protect appliances, walls, and any other smooth surface needing that extra layer of protection.
