Wood changes colour when first exposed to daylight. Floor protection from ongoing construction activity should be applied from wall to wall. Tape the protection at seams and NOT to the wood floor surface. NFCA Floor Covering Reference/Specification Manual states: Installed flooring shall be protected with heavy Kraft-paper or other suitable covering as recommended by the flooring manufacturer. Do not use non-breathable sheet or film that could cause condensation to form. This covering must be maintained throughout the remainder of construction period. The overall responsibility for the protection of all installed flooring, from completion of work until the Owner's take-over, is the responsibility of the General Contractor. The flooring contractor will not be able to control the work or actions of on-site workers, or the actions of persons causing damage from setting-up or delivering equipment, furniture, or other items to the site. www.floorcoveringreferencemanual.com
