Flooring Installation

Safety Goggles
  • Eye injuries can occur when you least expect
    it. You never know when a piece of wood or metal,
    or a bead of finishing material will hit you in
    the eye causing temporary or permanent damage.

3
Dust Mask and Vapor Respirators
  • Sanding or applying finish requires the use of
    a respirator. Failure to use one can cause
    inflammation of the nasal tract, tightness of the
    chest, shortness of breath, dizziness, asthma,
    and mucosa irritations.

Work Safety Boots
  • The dangers to your feet are obvious. When you
    select a boot (athletic shoes are not acceptable)
    here are some features to consider.

5
Heavy Gloves
  • Now that your feet and knees are protected,
    protect your hands and fingers as well. Heavy
    work gloves with reinforced fingertips should a
    last long time.

6
TapeTape Measure Measure
  • A tape measure is an inexpensive tool every
    installer should have. Its best to invest in one
    that you can read easily, is retractable and has
    a hook at the end to stay in place.

7
Knee Pads
  • Since you will be spending some of your time on
    your knees, knee pads will prevent strain and
    pain. Use contractor-grade pads made of cloth
    that are adjustable and fit well.

Ear Plugs or Ear Muffs
  • Prolonged exposure to loud noise, especially
    when using certain types of power equipment, can
    result in hearing loss. According to the Centers
    for Disease Control, the noise levels from a wide
    variety of power saws are over 100 decibels

9
Feather Boards
  • Whenever you use a table saw, use the feather
    board to push the stock past cutting edge. The
    feather board not only creates a smoother cut,
    but also protects your hands from kickback and
    from getting too close to the blade.
