There’s no doubt that a hardwood floor brings beauty and durability to any room in the house. A proper installation job will ensure that there are no issues with placement or patterns. However, it’s almost impossible to install hardwood flooring without slight lippage or overwood between each plank. If the overwood meets industry standards, it is acceptable. It should not affect the overall appearance of the hardwood floor. It also should not impact how the floor is used.
If there is a significant amount of overwood or lippage at the joints in wood flooring, homeowners and business owners will notice it. They may request a smoother surface. In many cases, they will ask installers to replace the boards. It’s always a good idea to address issues of overgrowth during installation rather than have to go back and replace planks that have created an uneven walkway.
