The Warping Floor

In the middle of all the rain, I got up the other morning and stumbled into the kitchen for my morning coffee. The trip was more dangerous than usual and not because I was extra caffeine-deprived. To my dismay, a large section of the wood parquet in the kitchen warped and lifted during the night.

In Florida your plumbing is buried in your poured foundation so if you have an issue that is very bad! The only way to figure out the problem is to dig up the floor and try to find out what is going on.



After all this, we happily (sort of) discovered that we did not have any leak coming from below. This was demonstrated by the puddle that suddenly appeared under the mammoth fridge that we relocated to the other side of the kitchen when we moved it to lift the flooring out from under it. Sigh...

Trip to Lowes anyone?
