Floating Floor

I am installing a floating floor for the first time. I have done regular solid floors before, but never a floating floor. I am using 9/16 engineered bamboo over a concrete floor. i was wondering if you guys had any tips or advice for me before i got started. thanks

Re: Floating Floor

Read the installation instructions on the box........it never fails. If it does fail, you will have recourse with manufacturer.
