I was going along fairly well installing a hardwood floor with glue. The flooring is approx 7mm in thickness. Well, I had to quit for the day and when I went back one of the boards (which are single boards approx 2" wide) curved out approx 1/32 or so and pushed out the next layer. I alread had gone several layers beyond that not adjacent but staggered. This is causing me problems and I do not wish to remove the other 3 or 4 surrounding layers if you can understand what I am trying to explain. If I can get back on track I hope to be OK, but I am very puzzled at what to do. Have talked with several people and was suggested I remove the sections. I would even consider ripping up the entire floor at this point, but I know it would make a bigger mess because of the glue. Any suggestions?

You were using blue 3M painter tape to hold it all together and tight, werem't you?


If not, you better go pick up a few 1½" wide rolls, for the reinstallation, after you tear it out, to where it is gapped up.
