Replacing wooden floor
Do you want to replace your wooden floor? A stable and well-insulated floor is essential for the comfort and durability of your home. In many older homes, the ground floor rests on wooden beams, which can weaken over time due to moisture, mold or wood rot. This can lead to a cold, draughty and unsafe floor. Replacing the entire wooden floor is then the best solution. Compofloor offers an innovative renovation floor that can be installed within one day.
Why choose Compofloor when replacing your wooden floor?
When replacing a wooden floor, you want a solution that is quickly installed, offers long-term protection and immediately provides more comfort. Compofloor meets all these requirements and also offers more advantages:
Fast and efficient installation
The Compofloor system consists of composite floor elements that are made to measure and prepared in our own factory. This allows us to quickly remove the old wooden floor and install the new floor within one day. This minimizes the inconvenience and you can quickly use your home again.
High insulation value
The Compofloor has a standard insulation value of Rc = 4.44 m²K/W, which is higher than the current new construction standards. This ensures a comfortable and energy-efficient floor, which saves you on heating costs and contributes to a more sustainable home.
Moisture resistant and airtight
Thanks to the use of glass fibre reinforced composite and EPS insulation, Compofloor is completely moisture-resistant and airtight. This prevents problems such as mould and wood rot, and ensures a healthy indoor climate.
Lightweight and strong construction
The floor elements are lightweight, comparable to traditional wooden floors, but offer high load-bearing capacity. This makes Compofloor suitable for almost any home, without additional burden on the existing foundation.
Problems with old wooden beam floors
Wooden beam floors were widely used in homes and buildings for many years. Although they seem sturdy, they can cause various problems over time. For example, older floors often offer little insulation, which means that heat is easily lost and sound is easily spread. You also regularly hear creaking when you walk over them, something that in practice is more annoying than charming, especially in busy households or work spaces. In addition, the wooden beams often become weakened after decades due to wear, wood rot or corrosion. This not only poses risks to the structural safety of the floor, but can also have consequences for health and living comfort.
A rotting wooden floor
A wooden floor that is starting to rot can often be seen by discolouration. Black or dark brown spots in the wood usually indicate moisture problems. Wood rot causes the wood to become soft and can even crumble over time. If you notice that your carpet is starting to bubble or come loose, this can also be a sign of moisture or incipient rot under the floor. It is important to tackle wood rot as soon as possible. The sooner you get to it, the smaller the section that needs to be replaced. Remove the affected wood and make sure that you also find the cause of the problem, such as rising damp, so that it does not occur again.
