As already mentioned, it's well done but some of the panels are 'bouncy'.

Is it possible to take the boards apart now that they've been glued without wrecking them?

Hi all Girlfriend made a start on the hallway flooring without really thinking/knowing what to do while I was away. Before slating the job itself, it is actually quite well done aside from the fact that it hasn't been done properly... if that makes any sense. Essentially, the floor has...

If he doesn't have one is he legally prohibited from carrying out boiler repairs? I doubt the letting agent will have instructed him if he wasn't official.
