Now the laminate is considered the most popular flooring material - it looks good and presentable, good combined with different styles of interior and, importantly, it is quite easy to lay it yourself without using help professionals.
But I must say that the laminate, with many positive aspects, has a significant minus - due to various factors, the uniformity of the coating can be violated. If such a problem occurs, you do not need to worry, remove the damage, perhaps without using someone else's help.
Why do laminate floorboards swell?
The factors by which laminate floorboards swell depend on a wide variety of points. It all depends on how the landlord handles the laminate, and how the installation was originally done.
The most common reasons that people have to meet when buying a laminate flooring, highlight this:
• Purchased originally poor quality laminate flooring. Often, when repairs begin, accompanied by high costs, people begin to save and tend to attractive promotions and special offers. This leads to the fact that attempts to save 100-200 rubles, lead to the purchase of low-quality material, which will have to be overridden. Laminate is a construction material rather whimsical, and as a result of this, you need not save money, but purchase initially high-quality coating, which has proved itself to be the best.
• A mistake was made when preparing the base surface. Here an important role is seen in how well prepared our surface under the laminate.
Following the rules, the base must be properly leveled and dried, otherwise unnecessary bulges may appear on the very surface of the laminate. It happens that the laminate swells at the joints and seams, it is possible to remove such a defect only when disassembling. Usually, the reason for the defect is that the laminate was not laid according to the rules.
Act in this situation as follows:
• Remove the baseboard;
• Detect those laminate floorboards that abut against the walls;
• Using an electric jigsaw, remove the protruding part so that the baseboard covers the surface that appears;
• Attach the baseboard to its original position.
If the laminate has swollen when moisture gets on the surface, in summer you usually need to wipe the surface with dry material and how to ventilate the room.
