Hi,
Over the past few days I've been working on laying some bamboo flooring in our bedroom. By the time I've been getting home there hasn't been much daylight and so progress has been slow. The room is 2/3 complete and yesterday I decided to have a walk on the floor. There is an area of about 1/2 m2 that is quite springy and dips. Should I be at all concerned about this? The floor comprises of original floorboards, 3mm hardboard and then underlay. Could it be that the floor needs to rest and settle a little more and the dip will be less pronounced in time?
The house is a 1900 build and so is far from even or square. Do I just accept this and try and suppress my mild OCD? Or do I look to try and slide another layer of underlay underneath to try and raise it a little?
Thanks very much.
David
