Glad that I found this site.

Just bought rosewood engineered wood floor. Got a good deal. Tried to install few board and got gaps. Used clamps and even tap them very hard and still resulted with gaps.

Need help.

Welcome to the forums! Is it a glue up, click lock, or what type floor is it. What thickness? You can post pictures on a site such as photobucket.com and copy/paste the HTML code to your reply post to let us see what you have.

Thanks for the reply.

It's toungue and groove floating floor and the board is between 1/2 to 3/4 inch thickness. I even tried to attach two boards together and it seems the toungue is longer than the dept of the groove. Should I sand down the tongue?
