I have about 100m2 of herringbone parquet downstairs.
It was laid about a year ago, part of a new build.
How much shrinkage is normal? Gaps are appearing everywhere.Where it borders the tiles and external openings about 4-5mm. on the floor itself you can see the gaps appearing everywhere.
The guy who laid it says it's normal, of course he would.
Shouldn't it be expanding because it's summer?
Can some expert tell me how much expansion and shrinkage is normal please.
It's on stumps not a concrete slab.
ps Most of the archs and skirts have come away from the walls as well
