Yes, you can glue Carlisle Walnut floors directly to concrete

Homeowners Kim Keast and her husband in Houston, Texas set out to directly glue a Carlisle Walnut floor, with 5- to 10-inch widths, directly to concrete, and they worked with Robert Plut out of Carlisle's Denver offices and showroom. We got photos from them while they were in the middle of their project and another set and a nice report from them when they were done with the installation.

Here's the note Robert got from Kim right after she and her husband finished the installation.

Hi Robert,

I have attached a few pictures of our home. A view from the upstairs to the foyer, my dining room and then my path to the master bedroom. Thanks for all of your help and we'll be in touch about our next Carlisle project in 2010! Now that's it's done, it's hard to believe we laid it ONE board at a time! It's absolutely beautiful! Exactly what I had pictured in this brain of mine!

THANKS! KIM

p.s. We had only 6 - 8-inch boards left of different lengths and very little scrap. We used every 10-inch and 5-inch board that you sent to us! I had so few left over that I could stack them in my clothes closet for when we get to our kitchen project next year! Great estimating!
