Gaps Happen:

Wood flooring is a natural product, and natural movement is part of what gives real wood its character. Seasonal changes in temperature and humidity can cause wood planks to expand and contract throughout the year. Small gaps during colder, drier months are common and are often completely normal.

At Decorum Flooring Company, we educate our clients on what to expect so they can enjoy the beauty of their floors with confidence.

When Should You Be Concerned? 

Minor seasonal gaps are normal. However, if gaps become unusually large, remain year-round, or are accompanied by cupping, buckling, or loose boards, it may be time for a professional inspection. 

If you ever have questions about your floors, our team is here to help evaluate what is normal and what may require attention.
