Spacia Easyfit installation guide

Step 1 - preparing the room

• Remove skirting board if required
• Under cut the door frame if needed
• Sweep subfloor clean

Step 2 - starting line

• Scribe a straight starting line along the length of floor
• This gives you the position of the first row of tiles

Step 3 - applying double sided tape

• Adhere a 43mm wide strip of double sided tape around edge of room
• The tape must be 2” away from wall
• Apply addition strips 18” apart at regular intervals

Step 4 - laying the first planks

• Start installing your floor in the left hand corner of the room
• Leave a 1/8” gap between the planks and wall around the room perimeter
• Peel back enough release paper on the tape to fit a small section of planks
• Use spacers to keep the planks straight

Step 5 - using the tapping block

• Try to lay the end plank joins randomly to ensure a realistic wood effect
• Use tapping block to tighten up any gaps between each plank
• Walk on the planks ensuring that the tiles adhere to the tape and subfloor.

Step 6 - using the prybar

• Align and tighten planks to the edge of your room using a pry bar

Step 7 - continue to lay all planks

• Continue to install your floor until the last row
• Scribe the last row
• Trim to fit, leaving an 1/8" gap between the wall and the final planks

Step 8 - finishing off

• Once you have completed your room refit skirting boards
• For a neat finish use scotia beading around the room perimeter
