Floarboard gap filling and varnishing/painting

[Ellie78]

Looking for someone to do a good job of filling the gap between pine floors that have already been sanded.

Apparently strips of mdf/pine better for this (and you can buy these purpose made?)!?

Then either looking for painting or whitening (osmo/blanchon)

Floor approx 40m2 (4 rooms, corridor)

Could do the work in stages, potentially, but we need to move back into at least 1 of those rooms ASAP.

Please get in touch!

So this is basically what I was thinking of, either to use these slivers or an alternative?

I used those on my floor throughout my flat. Most, 95%, are still in place 7 years later and it's much warmer while still letting some air through. You may need to replace a few here and there in heavy footfall areas but it's easy. I really recommend them as most other fillers just fall through the gaps.

Thanks! God to know they're worth doing.....

Do you know anyone who might be able to do it? I have absolutely Zero

DIY skills.

And should have added, I'm desperate to find someone who can start this week.

We would potnwntially be happy to do the work in stages so as long as 2 of the rooms were done this week we could negotiate one when the rest was done if that makes sense?

I watched the video and did it myself. But anyone you hire could do the same.
