OK, I'm putting in a wood floor (3/4" pre finished Birch) in my dinning room, I have heard its best to install the wood in the opposite direction of the joists under the floor. However we have two other rooms where the wood it going in the same direction of the joists, and after 20 years, never had a problem. My wife and I are arguing over this. I feel if we run in opposite direction, it won;t look right, (I think the boards should go in the direction of the longest part of the room.) Does it really matter how to lay it as long as we have the proper sub floors down? thanks
