OSB tongue 'n groove flooring gaps - to fill or not?
I've just put down a new sub-floor with OSB tongue and groove but I'm
left with ~2 mm spaces between the sheets. I'll be putting down underpadding and carpet--is it necessary to fill the gap with some sort of compound? TIA! Darryl. |

Depending on your installation(save over a garage, etc) the seams might need some spacing for expansion. Good luck, tom @ www.Consolidated-Loans.info |
