Clip Summary

Howard Brickman and crew are on-site laying down the wideboard hardwood that extends throughout most of the first floor.

Because of the home's open floor plan and the unusually generous length of the reclaimed oak floor boards, the crew lays out a starter board that spans each room. The starter board is used as a reference point for the subsequent boards.

Next, a bead of adhesive is applied to the backside of each board, and the individual pieces are laid out and tapped into place. Finally, Howard uses a flooring nailer to fasten the boards into place.
