I installed an engineered wood floor in our bedroom. There is one spot where there is a little give in the floor, which I know means the the slab was not
perfectly level. Is there anything I can do about it now. I know there are
"drill and fill" kits for glue down installations, but is there anything
like this that can be used on floating floors?

This question is asked almost daily on this site. Maybe time to put together a good thread and "Sticky".

For Floating Floors:
Lift the floor and level the sub-floor surface.

Injection works on glue down, not floating floor installations.


There is no easy or magical way to fix the sub-floor. Sorry :roll:

Sounds like another article idea. Incidentally Mr.Ray, how are you coming along with them?

By the way. I did a repair on a floating floor whereby someone injected foam under the floor. It didn't look too bad, the holes weren't that noticeable, but it did fail after a period of time.

Ken,
you'll have your articles in about 3 weeks. Two out of four not in office.

Sorry, I knew I would be slow at this project....
