I am installing a new pergo-type fooring. I will be installing it over the cushioned underlayment. i have watched many videos on the process and really have no issues with putting it all together(I have done a few hardwood floors in my time).
The one question which does not get answered in any of these vids is hot to secure the first row so that the floor cannot move. I know the subsequent pieces lock in but what keep the floor in place so that it can’t close even the 1/2 inch expansion gap. Is the first row glued or nailed? No one explains that.
I hope I get an answer. thanks
