      Answer This Question

      A:  In regards to Home Legend flooring and its resistance to warping, engineered flooring is generally more stable than solid. Laminate more typically more wear resistant. Because there are so many variables, we recommend that you conduct some personal research. The National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA) is a reputable resource for more information. http://hardwoodfloorsmag.com/articles/search.aspx

              A:  Hello KC and thank you for your question. The click joint technology found on this Teak Natural 3/8 in. Click Lock Hardwood Flooring is a no-glue, floating floor suitable for installation on, above, or below grade. Your bathroom is classified as a wet area; prolonged water exposure could damage your wood flooring and care must be taken. (Note: Home Legend flooring panels are not recommended for extreme humid applications such as in saunas or swimming pool areas.) An expansion area of 5/16" – 3/8" must be provided around all vertical obstructions including walls, permanent cabinets, pipes etc. All perimeter expansion areas must be completely filled in with a water repellant (silicone based) sealant. Let dry for 24 hours before exposure to water. Complete instructions for installing Home Legend Floating Wood Products in a wet area can be found on page 4: http://www.homelegend.com/pdfs/2012/HDF%20Valinge%20Click%20Wood%20Installation%20Instructions.pdf. Best wishes with your project.
