Hello Everyone

I am a very newbie to this forum. My floor is concrete in my apartment and I would like to know that how do I install hardwood on a concrete floor? Can anyone any ideas in this regard.

Thanks & Regards

Their is a couple options. First, you can get an engineered hardwood and either float it over the concrete with an underlayment under the floor. You could also glue down engineered to the concrete. This will fel more solid to walk on than floating. However, if you want to go this route you will first want to make sure the moisture level in the concrete is acceptable to install directly onto it. The final way to install on concrete is to attach some 3/4" plywood to the concrete and then nail down the flooring to the plywood. This way will allow you to use real solid hardwood.
