I have no idea what you are asking, You need to post pics of the problem

As Patricia points out, we need photos. When man-made floating planks start to separate (I'm assuming that's what you mean by "split") there are usually two reasons: 1. Installation error (not snapped together properly) and 2. Installation error because the runs are too long for the product to hold itself together.

Subfloor issues are also a concern. The fact that your subfloor "needed work" is a big red flag. This red flag says "household concerns that the INSTALLER did not recognise/change to ensure proper installation". Normally this is done because the subfloor preparation was not paid for/discussed at the time of the quote.

There are a few other reasons, but they are "minor" in comparison to the two BIG issues above. Warping is a different animal which normally has to do with the house itself (too hot, too cold, UV exposure by windows, etc). These things can make vinyl floors act in a weird way.

Without photos, we have very little to go on. And while you are figuring out how to load photos, please take some humidity and temperature measurements in your home. You can check the expansion gaps at the walls and check to see if transition strips were used in ALL the doorways. And if you are in a really curious mood, feel free to measure the LONGEST run of uninterrupted flooring. That is a continuous length of vinyl that is together without a transition strip.

And feel free to list the installation instructions for your floor. It is a great read - especially when you compare it to what happened in your home. Often times you can figure out what when wrong simply by comparing what WAS done vs what SHOULD have been done. These two things are often MILES apart.

Terrible material. The locking joints pop, creak, and break as you walk on the floor, which means there is movement, and it takes very little movement to break the locking mechanism of this all too brittle material. You can try to patch or flatten the sub floor before the install, but that takes extra $, and you'll never achieve perfect flatness, so use a different product. NuCore comes apart. While I was installing a transition piece between a hallway and a bathroom, I broke 4 pieces to get the one piece installed. With other flooring that has some flex, that would have been no problem. NuCore is indeed very hard, but that means it is very brittle. Thinness is a brittle material's weakness. Do not buy NuCore.

A girl Amy has a class action lawsuit in the works if you want the info. NuCore is the worst.

Lisa send me that info, just install 1100 sq ft and end joints are popping like crazy and it's only been 2

Dwain Call the lawyer to be added to list of others who have the same problem with NuCore. Matt Metzger 513-488-1135

I have the same issue with end joing creak and pop right after installation even my subfloor is leveled. My mistake i guess is to put 3mm underlayment (quiet walk) and customer service rejected my claim. Do i stand a chance, i can be part of the case if i stand a chance.

Yes Usmam you can call this lawyer and be added to our list. Matt Metzger 513-488-1135 I used the underlayment and they still rejected my ckaim. The flooring is defective. The more of us out there the better off to start a class action lawsuit.

Not happy with my floor, have all those issues above. Locking mechanism breaking in multipal places, the cracking and squeaking sounds. how do i open a claim, do i go to floor and decor first?

Call Matt Metzger lawyer above. Staring a class action lawsuit. Floor&Decor does not stand by any warrranty.
