    How to fix a Floating Floor that is lifting?
    The floating wooden floor in my bedroom has lifted. I have tried to push it down but will not stay down, or just rise in another area. How can I fix this?

    A floating floor needs room for expansion. Remove trim to expose the last boards. There should be about a 1/4'' space between floor board and wall. This should be on both side. Remove end board and cut for clearance. Reinstall trim.

    Good luck

    Good advice so far. Are you running a humidifier in the house, if so turn it down if you have water forming on any windows
