How to repair wood floors sticking up against old wood floors? Help!


Bought a new home...4 bedrooms/ walk-in closets, carpet removed...flooring business sold us the hard wood flooring. They hired installers...when I saw these newly installed wood floors and the wood lip sticking up, I was and am still upset...Shouldn't it flow from one room into another? Flooring business did not match older flooring shine...dull and pickled new flooring...ugh...What to do???

The wood should not be buckled, lipped or anything but smoothly transitioning from one room to the next . They're called transition strips and every decent installer has them in his truck /van at all times . To leave your floor the way it is , is a trip hazard . You or a member of your family or someone else could fall and hurt themselves .If they don't offer to come and fix it or replace it free of charge , get an attorney . I am not a litigious person , but you got ripped off .SincerelyFormer owner of a flooring businessHelpful Reply- See 1 previous
