Subfloor Primers
Before installing a wooden floor, it is necessary to check the quality and conditions of the subfloor, giving particular attention to moisture problems. Often it is necessary to use dampproofing and solidifying primers, or use simple adhesive agents with particularly smooth and compact surfaces like marble and tile.
