How to assemble wooden floors on logs on your own

Even the simplest boards are truly unique materials, because they can be used to carry out a variety of finishing activities. In particular, the product is used for laying floors. The boardwalk floor is characterized by moderate strength, low weight, and environmental friendliness. But it's especially nice that you can assemble it yourself. How to do it?

1. Preparation of logs for flooring boards

Logs are traditionally used as the base for the boardwalk flooring. To lay them, you need to prepare a bar 8-10 cm thick. It is desirable to treat it with an antiseptic or at least drying oil. Then the beam is placed across the room, spreading it in about 70-80 cm increments.

2. Installation of an additional thermal insulator

In general, when assembling wooden floors, it will be possible to do without additional thermal insulation work. But still, if you install insulation, the floors will be more functional and practical.

Expanded clay can be a good option for thermal insulation material. They fill it up in the free space remaining between the lags. Accordingly, the thickness of the expanded clay layer will depend on the cross-section of the beam. Usually, the expanded clay layer is about 7 cm thick. And this is just enough to achieve a very good level of insulation. Expanded clay itself is not afraid of moisture, so it is not necessary to put a waterproofing layer on top of it.

3. Laying boards on top of logs

The owner can choose different board types. But, perhaps, the best option would still be a tongue-and-groove board. This is a material equipped with grooves and ridges, due to which the material is laid so that a flooring is formed without through cracks.

The board is laid across the beam, fixed with screws or even nails. In this case, you need to remember the suture dressing rule. That is, the boards in the adjacent rows are shifted to avoid overlapping seams between them.

4. Decorative treatment of the wooden floor

Now you can proceed to the decorative finishing. It is performed using paint or varnish. Various impregnations for wood are also suitable. All these formulations should be applied only after the formed board floor has been thoroughly primed. And after the primer dries, two layers of the selected decorative composition are laid on the board.

As a result, the owner will get a good floor without spending serious money and physical effort.
