Hi
I've laid a laminate floor in my bathroom of about 3m x 1.2m.
There's an expansion gap around the edge of about 5mm.
I have an edging strip which I was going to fit to cloak the gap.
The thing is I don't like the way it looks. I would prefer to run round the edge with a bead of silicone rubber to the skirting board.
Can anyone tell me whether this would be likely to cause a problem, e.g. boards "tenting" if they expand? Is the expansion likely to be significant over such a small area?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Chris
