What are normal gaps?
Normal gaps are openings between strips that open and close with changes in humidity. These are caused by seasonal fluctuations in relative humidity and are considered to be normal and expected for solid wood floors. Cure: Normal gaps can be minimized by using the HVAC system to regulate fluctuations in humidity in the building. After the floor has stabilized, use filler in the small gaps and recoat the floor. At the first signs of damage, or in the event of a water leak, it is important to notify your flooring contractor as soon as possible. We at Bauer Sport Floors are here to give advice and are trained to help owners with determining the best possible solution to their flooring problems.
