How to lay floating floorboards
Developed as an alternative to nailing or adhering materials to a subfloor, floating floorboards are joined together with a tongue-and-groove system that clicks into position.

The floors actually do float, expanding and contracting with weather and moisture content.
When installing it’s important to allow for this expansion by leaving a 10mm gap around the perimeter that’s usually covered by the skirting boards after the floor is laid.
The boards are sold in different sizes and usually supplied with a finished surface so there’s no need to sand or seal.
They can be installed over tiles, concrete, vinyl or timber.
