Today I put the remaining 7 sheets of Birch on the upstairs floorboards.
It’s definitely more smooth and feels more rigid than when the floor was just the boards.
I did have to remove the railings, and afterwards put it back on top of the sheets. Next step will be priming the floor to get a stronger bond with the vinyl tiles that will be placed on this floor.
Above is a picture of the ceiling above the couch downstairs. Before, you could see through the cracks, and dust would fall down on the couch, table and bar. Now that the birch floor is in, that issue is solved.
I actually like the look of the sheets. But I guess it will get/look dirty over time.
Are the boards screwed down? I don’t see screw holes.
Nice job!
They’re nailed down first, adding screws near seams to keep it flat. It does need something on top, as it gets dirty quickly and doesn’t look very finished
Nice work B! Keep up the good work!
Will do!
