Got 26 sq. m. of floor to lay on concrete. As well as tiles or stone, I'm considering wood. It's a porch/hall area, so quite high traffic. I'm quite interested in some of the engineered wood floors (e.g. Kahrs, Natura) with the 3 to 5 mm of wood, so that they can be sanded. Does anyone know how they stand up over time, especially since we have a labrador?
The other option I've seen is solid wood floor designed to glue straight down on to concrete, after testing the moisture content and applying a latex screed of some type. I always thought you couldn't lay solid wood right onto concrete, but I'm assured by the flooring shop you can. Are they right?
I've seen you can also get some solid wood floor designed to float, from Junckers, but that is pretty expensive.
Because of levels, there's no room to fit batons and nail.
Any comments or advice appreciated.
