Over Concrete
When It’s Wood Over Concrete, It’s Carlisle Over The Competition.
Carlisle provided us with a dramatic, artistic look not found in even the most fashionable of inner city hotels. The direct-to-concrete installation saved us a tremendous amount of time and money. Now several years later, the floor remains as warm, inviting and as flat as when installed.“
—Sarah Abdallah, Finish Designer Tony Chi Associates Park Hyatt Hotel, Washington, DC
Concrete is like any other floor, it simply has the potential of retaining more moisture. To successfully install wood flooring over concrete you need three things:
- The concrete must be dry.
- A vapor barrier should be installed over it to guard against seasonal fluctuations.
- The wood must be of the highest quality.
