which way to run hardwood floors
Answer: The first answer is, if you have solid hardwood, the wood has to be run in a particular direction. The hardwood should run perpendicular across the floor joists for more strength of the floor going over it.Not doing this can cause sagging of the hardwood and board separation.he room will appear longer if the wood is run from one end of the room to the other. If hardwood is in more than one room, but the rooms are open to each other, running the hardwood from the long end to the other end rather than from the front of the room to the back of the room will make the 2 areas seem larger.
