Hi,
Having abit of a disaster with the wooden floor in the house I bought. The previouse owner put a wooden floor down in two rooms downstairs, however these have expanded alot (there seems to be abit of a random damp problem in one of the rooms) and in one room it popped up about 3-4 inches, taking off the skirting board.
I've pulled up the skirting boards and by pulling up the flooring boards by the wall the bump has moved along so now its now just a number of boards being pushed up the wall.
Anyway, the boards are glued together so I am unable to simply pull out the last boards to cut them down. Also, as its right up against the wall I would be cutting off too much if I use my jigsaw due to the position of the blade, and this would similar with my circular saw. I have considered just using my angle grinder to give a close cut, but am abit worried about the heat causing a fire/ smaldering under the raised floor. I've tried cutting with a saw but the floor isnt high enough to move it more than about 2inches (i've tried wedging the floor higher but with no luck) and because I cant put weight on the last 5 or so boards as they are raised up, its really awkward.
So anyway, does anyone have any ideas how I can do this as its really causing issues!!! I might just give up, cut off two much then fill the gap with something!
Cheers for help.
