Assimilate Laminate Flooring
Wed, Aug 27, 2008
Let’s pretend that you just bought some laminate flooring boxes today. For example, laminate produced by trafficmaster. Usually there are message on each box which says that you need to wait 48 hours until install. Although you are alreaady ready want to install so you need to decide, wait or start now.
From our experience, assimilation, whether it’s flooring or cabinetry is important, especially in high humidity environments. 48 hours is the stated time on the box, but after 24 with this product you’re likely safe. Just be sure to allow the floor to float, by that meaning do not install ANY planks tight to a wall. I hold .25″ all the way around the room or corridors sides.
I would go ahead and install, just wait the remaining prescribed hours to install your baseboards.
