Re: [A/S] wood floors
It is only the seams that give the provlem. any where there is a seam you
have the potential for water to seep through eather from moping or from
spills.In another life when I used help to install tile in homes we would
glue down black 15 lb tarr paper which acted as a morsture barrer under the
tile. the reson i suggested to clean off the old glue and coat the floor with
pinitrating epoxy is it rendered the floor water proof and wood will rot only
if water can pinetrate it. I am totaly unfamilior with the many new and
similated wood floors on the market. If you can find a compent installer he
would be in a position to better answer your questions. A salesman will tell
you what you want to hear. I have solved my provlem with no real sweat ans
now have a permant beautiful floor.
