What are the concepts of tongue-and-groove floor and flat floor respectively?

1, tongue-and-groove floor is relative to flat floor, its surface is rectangular, the whole floor is a simple wooden board, it has tenons and grooves, and there are anti-deformation grooves on the back, which overlap each other when paving. From the installation mode, it can be divided into knock lock and oblique lock. The inclined lock is easy to install, but the ground is slightly uneven, the lock is easy to loosen and the lower part of the notch is easy to break.

2. The flat floor is a rectangular plate with smooth surface and flat six sides. Can be spliced into square, herringbone, zigzag and other patterns according to personal preferences. Tongue floor means that the installation of the floor must rely on the glue between tenon and mortise.

The board surface is rectangular, and the whole floor is a simple wooden board with tenons and grooves, and the back surface has anti-deformation grooves, which overlap each other when paving. From the installation mode, it can be divided into knock lock and oblique lock. The inclined lock is easy to install, but the ground is slightly uneven, so the lock is easy to disengage and the lower part of the notch is easy to break.

The first step: cork floor maintenance should keep in mind four points.

The cork floor feels like a wine cork, but it must not be delicate. The maintenance of cork flooring is simpler than that of solid wood flooring. There are four main points for good maintenance.

Regular maintenance: Like solid wood floors, floor wax can be used once every six months for painted cork floors. Cork floor with resin wear-resistant layer on the surface is as simple as the care of composite floor.

Minor repairs: If the cork floor is worn in some places after a period of use, it can be partially repaired. Lightly polish the worn parts with sandpaper to remove the dirt on their surfaces, then gently wipe them clean with a dry soft cloth, repaint the coating, or cover some parts with polyester film.

Cleaning and maintenance: When using a mop to clean the floor, it is best to wring it out before using it. When using a mop that is too wet, water will penetrate into the joints, damage the floor, and cause the floor to tilt and deform, especially the wooden floor, plastic floor and cork floor tile.

Daily protection: at the same time, try to avoid direct sunlight on the floor for a long time, and avoid premature cracking and aging of the paint film after long-term intense ultraviolet radiation.

Step 2: Develop good habits and skillfully use cork floors.

Cork needs not only maintenance, but also good habits. Good use habits can effectively prolong the service life of cork floor and make it fresh for a long time.

Surface protection: it is recommended to lay a mat at the door to reduce sand being brought indoors. If a lot of sand is brought indoors, the sand will rub and scrape the floor with the flow of footsteps. If too much dirty sand is found, it should be removed in time.

Temperature control: Don't put items with higher temperature directly on the floor. The surface paint film may be burnt due to thermal transformation. Even if there is no obvious scald phenomenon, the service life of cork floor will be greatly reduced after long-term use.

Avoid damage: Although the cork floor has a certain bearing capacity, floor mats should be added under the furniture with a small bearing area at the bottom to reduce the damage to the floor and prevent the cork floor from being deformed due to excessive local pressure.

Daily use: furniture can only be placed on the floor after 24 hours of installation, and the movement of people on it should be minimized within 24 hours. If you want to move the furniture, it is recommended to lift it lightly to avoid scratching the floor.

Step 3: Maintain the floor in winter to prevent cracking and deformation.

The arrival of winter not only affects people's work, study and life, but also has a great influence on the cork floor of our room. Let's learn how to prevent the floor from cracking and deformation in winter.

Anti-cracking: The environment is too dry in winter, which is easy to cause the gap between wooden floors to expand and separate. Therefore, to prevent this phenomenon, it is necessary to maintain indoor ventilation and appropriate indoor humidity.

Scratch-proof: If the paint of the product is uneven, the dry weather in winter will make the surface paint more easily damaged by people. In addition to choosing products with good reputation, we should also try to avoid scraping the floor with hard objects.

Moisture-proof: any wooden floor is easy to crack due to expansion after being soaked in water for a long time. So it is not recommended to mop the cork floor with a wet mop.

Standardized paving: when paving the floor, it should be carried out in strict accordance with the paving specifications, such as whether the waterproof measures of bathrooms and balconies connected with the floor area are qualified. After the cork floor is paved, the furniture can't be moved in at once.
