Step-by-step guide for installing reclaimed tongue and groove, end-matched, random-width, and random-length hardwood flooring. This method ensures a durable, attractive finish and works with solid or engineered reclaimed wood.
Preparation
- Acclimate reclaimed wood planks in the installation room for 5–7 days to prevent excessive movement after installation. Inspect and clean planks, remove debris, and organize by width and length for efficient layout.
- Prepare the subfloor by thoroughly cleaning and ensuring it's level and dry. Hammer down any protruding nails or screws.
- Snap a straight chalk line parallel to the starting wall; allow a gap (typically ½ inch) for expansion along all walls and vertical obstacles.
Layout Planning
- For random-width planks, mix widths for a natural look; avoid placing same-width boards next to each other.
- For random-length planks, stagger the end joints by at least six inches between adjacent rows, avoiding stair-step or "lighting bolt" patterns.
- Lay out several rows "dry" first to pre-fit widths, lengths, and colors for the best visual arrangement.
Installation Steps
- Start with the groove side of the first board against the wall, tongue facing out. Leave expansion spacers between board and wall.
- Apply a bead of flooring adhesive to the back of each board, keeping it away from the edges to avoid squeeze-out into joints.
- For planks with tongue and groove and end-matched joints, blind-nail through the tongue every 8–10 inches using a flooring nail gun at a 45° angle. On wide planks or end-matched boards, nail or staple within 1–3 inches of each end and then every 6–8 inches thereafter.
- Use a rubber mallet and tapping block to snugly fit the tongue and groove joints. For end-matched boards, at row ends, cut planks so end joints are staggered and the cut end fits the tongue/groove connection.
- Fell each row according to your planned random mix of widths and lengths, continuing until the floor is finished.
- For final rows (where the nail gun will not fit), either face-nail near the wall or glue the last boards in place. Predrill all face-nail holes to avoid splitting.
Finishing Touches
- Set all nails slightly below the wood surface so they don’t show after sanding.
- Fill nail holes with matching wood putty.
- Remove spacers, then install baseboards or quarter-round molding to cover expansion gaps around the perimeter.
- Sweep/vacuum and check for gaps; apply touch-up stain as needed.
Best Practices
- Place favorite boards in visible spots for optimal aesthetics.
- Alternate widths and avoid repeated patterns for a truly random layout.
- Randomize lengths for a stable, visually pleasing floor, but maintain recommended joint staggering (minimum six inches).
