Wood floors are a great way to add a high-end look that can integrate with any design style. But if you decided to give DIY hardwood floor installation a try, it’s important to be aware of the common mistakes and how to avoid them.

1: Not Preparing the Subfloor

Think of your subfloor as the foundation for your hardwood floors. It’s important to ensure your subfloor is in a good condition before installing hardwood to avoid problems like loose boards and loud creaking noises.

2: Forgetting About Moisture Levels

You should always avoid installing hardwood floors in areas that are subject to excessive moisture like basements or bathrooms. Keep in mind that humidity has a direct impact on wood and should be taken into account before installation.

3: Not Using Enough Nails

This mistake can cause the most problems down the road, and luckily is also the easiest to avoid. It’s crucial to install each plank with an adequate number of fasteners to prevent creaking, loose boards, and other issues.
