    I do not envy you guys. I do vinyl and poured urethane gym floors. Your work is literally back breaking. I do however have a ton of respect for you wood guys.

    I liked when he was stapling the subfloor he had his weight on it the entire time. I would be wary of stapling the entire outside first. Doing the top and left edges first, then from left to right in the middle and the right and bottom edges last may help prevent the subfloor from bubbling up.

    • @FLOOREDTV

      That's why I generally stand in the center when I staple the perimeter, my weight throws the slack to the edges. I've done over 2 million feet of double layer plywood flooring systems and haven't had a problem yet. (knock on wood)

      Staple it to the subfloor on 9 inch centers.

      the 2 layers of plywood are nailed down to the concrete subfloor, or drilled, depending on if these guys are paid hourly, lol. Then the maple flooring is nailed in through its side into the plywood. the reason for it being to the side is so that the nail can't be seen when another board is installed up against it.

    @FLOOREDThank you for this amazing and informative video. We are currently assembling a wood floor for our basketball gym in the Bay Area. I was wondering if creaking/popping sound is normal when walking over throughout the wooden floor (sanding and polish has not been done yet)? I would highly appreciate your feedback.Thank you.

    • @jeremyb7659
      @jeremyb7659 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nope, that’s not normal. A lot of things could be wrong. Not nailed properly, the wood has sloppy tongue and groove joints, the subfloor was in level multiple things could have not been done right

    • @NEXFLOOR
      @NEXFLOOR ปีที่แล้ว

      i know im 2 years too late for this but the most likely answer is that the nails weren't nailed properly, it can cause the boards to be slightly loose and the movement of the board on the loose nails creates the creaking, the popping is also a side effect of the loose boards caused by improper installation, another reason for the boards being loose is that the installer might not have left adequete expansion on the sides of the floors and it caused the floors to expand and loosen itself, but there would be likely other damage also noticeable from that.

      This gym looks like it’s approximately 9,000 square feet and it really all depends if he’s getting paid by the square foot or hourly.

    • @NEXFLOOR
      @NEXFLOOR ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@davyyswavyy5395 Most likely by the sqft, material usually costs somewhere around $6-$8 dollars a sqft, installation is usually charged at about 4.75 a sqft for solid hardwood, the double layer of plywood, if its 2 layers of quarter inch boards goes to about 4 dollars a sqft. Not calculating any other expense like leveling, removal, or anything else its abt $14.75 a sqft, thats super super generous, i see this job with all other expenses at about $20-22 a sqft. Calculating 10,000 sqft at 14.75, it comes out to about $147,500. More realistically this seems like a 200-230 thousand dollar job.
