Hi...
We recently pulled up an old carpet in our bedroom and revealed some floorboards in average condition (not being an expert, I'm guessing here). The problem is that some of the floorboards don't actually meet the wall of the room at the base of the skirting board - they are out about 1/2 an inch - and that's most of them. I am wondering what to do about this...is it worth sanding and revarnishing or would it be best to just cover up again with new carpet? Is this where we call a professional? Other than that problem the boards seem to be in good order and I think would respond well to sanding and re-varnishing.
Can anyone offer advice please?
Thanks
Sara
