I wonder if anyone can help with a question on hard-boarding an iffy floor that I have to do tomorrow?
I have been reading up on the web and it seems the general consensus is that the boards need to be laid shiny side down.
The things I am un-sure of is that many recommend wetting the boards first then some say lay them wet and others say wait till dry then lay?
Also what fixings should be used?
I would like to use my air stapler with 20mm staples as this would be mega quick but people are recommending ring shank 20mm nails?
Anyone have any advice?
Thanks,
Steve.
