welcome to renotalk ...

hmm.. almost everyone has the uneven floorings ...

get back to your TO and ask if you able to change the flooring

good luck :dancingqueen:

welcome to renotalk roseberry

agree with ranval9, show your TO the unevenness and demand that they do something about it

best if you can pour water on the floor and see if it puddles

if it does then definitely must ask TO to rectify liao

Me too. Also got uneven flooring in the living room. Cos after i gotten my keys, i actually wash my living room and found there in the middle of the room, the water can't seem to flow out lor.

Will report this in my defect list and see what they say.

bpheng: I'm at Blk 676B. !!

ranval9, applefreak: My living room is ok but the bedrooms 2 and 3 are not. The parquet in the centre of both rooms are obviously bulging outwards. :) When I step into the room, I get this giddy feeling lor.

Hopefully HDB can just remove all the timble portions in the house la anyway I'm planning to do homo tiles over the house.

that sounds pretty bad, think the parquet expanded due to excessive moisture :dunno:

list it down as defects and cham siong with the contractor to see if he can remove them without putting them back :dunno:

By the way, did anyone realise that the skirting is hollow?

Finally have time to upload some pictures of my problem parquet.

There's buldging in my parquet flooring and the HDB officer has yet to give me an adequate solution.

Here's the current flooring:

The new batch of wood which they offered to lay but we felt that the tonality of the flooring is not nice at all. Will be calling them to negotiate again.
