Flooring Adhesive & Primer

Adhesives are a vital part of installing most hardwood floors.  Your choice of flooring will help to determine how you will be fitting your floor and which products you may need in order to do this. We have a wide range of glues to cover every eventuality, including flexible flooring adhesives which ensure that your flooring has a full surface bond, but also has the ability to move slightly as it expands and contracts naturally with changes in temperature and humidity, and WPVA glue which is ideal for gluing the tongue and groove joints of T&G engineered flooring together to create a tight and seamless bond.

If you would like further information about which products you might need for your particular type of hardwood, please have a look at our Installation and Fitting Guide or alternatively contact us or visit our showroom for technical help and advice on all of our products.

Primers and Damp Proof Membranes help to create a barrier between the subfloor and your hardwood floor.  This can be a vital part of preparing your subfloor before installation, and can help to ensure that your hardwood floor is protected from any moisture that may be in the concrete or screed underneath.  If moisture from below does reach your wooden floor it can cause irreparable damage so it is worth thinking about possible precautionary measures before starting to fit your floor.

It is also a good time to start thinking looking after your flooring once it has been installed. Hardwood floors are easy to care for and maintain – read our Maintenance and Care Guide for useful tips and advice.
