Today's heating and cooling systems, when combined with seasonal fluctuations, subject wood floors to quite extreme temperature and humidity changes. When subjected to these changes, wide plank, non-engineered solid wood floors tend to show deficiencies: they can gap between the planks, cup across their width and warp along their length. In certain cases where the solid wood has moved too much, the floor will fail, i.e. lift away from the sub-floor. Areas serviced: Central Londonwww.element7.co.ukUnit 2/Parsons Green La, SW6 4HH
