Fellow members:

I am looking for a recommendation for wood flooring installation expert
(engineered flooring) in the north Florida area.  I represent a homeowner on
new construction.  Problem is not a defect in the product but the
installation of the product.  Issues involved are failure to allow the
flooring product to acclimate prior to installation and proposed "fixes" by
the contractor and flooring subcontractor.

Thanks

Jimmy

James,

Contact Daniel Boone (seriously) at Everwood Floors, (dboone@everwoodfloors.commailto:dboone@everwoodfloors.com) in Deland.  He was with Boone Flooring in Jacksonville for many years and is very knowledgeable on these installation/acclimation issues.

If the wood is "cupped" and the proposed fix is sanding and refinishing, your client should probably tell the contractor and/or installation subcontractor to forget it; the problem is underneath, not on the finished surface.
