Install your laminate floors
Installing your Shaw laminate floor can be a rewarding experience. There's nothing quite like sitting back after a job well-done and admiring your handi-work. 

To ensure the best possible experience during your installation, it is important to follow all installation instructions. Below you will find installation instructions for the different types of Shaw laminate floor.

The downloadable instruction manuals below will provide the information you will need to install your new laminate floor. The manuals will include the following information:
 
  • acclimation guidelines
  • subfloor preparation
  • underlayment procedures
  • step-by-step instructions
  • proper expansion space procedures

Remember these manuals offer general guidelines for most laminate flooring products. Be sure to check with your retailer to see if the product you have selected has any additional guidelines you need to follow.

If you're unsure about which floor you have, check with your retailer or you can call the Shaw Information Center at 800-441-7429. They can be reached Monday - Friday from 8:00am - 6:00pm EST.
