I can't wait to hear this answer! Twenty years ago our high-end GC put in
maybe $1200 of new maple into our kitchen, onto which we then laid maybe
$20,000 in perfectly designed and made retro-oak cabinets - I mean, these
were line for line from the originals. About a month after the cabinets
were installed, the maple floor boards shrank, yielding a yawning 1/8" per
board! The GC kindly offered to relay the floor - but not, of course, remove
and reinstall the cabinets.
The gaps did get filled ... with formula, mashed carrots, rice krispies and
cat throw-up - as far as I know, Rob, that's working pretty well - but you'll
have to work on the color.
