Mickey Moore is an independent wood flooring consultant. Previously he was the technical director of the Wood Flooring Manufacturers Association (NOFMA). He is a graduate of the University of Memphis with a degree in wood working technology and biology.
In the beginning, the only environmental requirement for wood flooring installation was that the house be “dried in”. In other words, the roof was on and windows were in place to prevent rain from getting on the floor.
With framed construction and wood flooring, as with any other installation, moisture affecting the flooring results in most of the issues that create a call-back and/or remediation.
Most all wood floors will have an occasional squeak, pop, or crackle. This is considered an acceptable condition that does not make the floor fail to perform.
