Help!
As part of our renovating project, we had a timber floor installed. Even with plastic covering the floor, it still managed to get thoroughly soaked. After removing the plastic and let it dry I noticed that while the underside of the boards still look as tight as the day they were laid, the surface of the boards have cupped and the gaps between the boards has increased, in some cases markedly. Is there anything that can be done prior to sanding. ?? straming?? anything??
