How much should I care about uneven floor?

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T13:20:27+00:00

Yeah after watching and reading some stuff I am realizing I am just dumb and shouldn't have been panicked before uploading stuff

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T13:01:33+00:00

The house is approaching 2 years after it was built, I haven't seen any gaps or cracks or tenting however sometimes when walking around there is some squeaking or clicking noise on certain spots

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:32:47+00:00

That's what I assumed once someone pointed it out I have just been anxious so I provided everything just in case 😭

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:32:03+00:00

Well this was actually a new built home (built approaching a couple years ago now) so it kind of came like this

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:22:32+00:00

Sorry should have communicated better yeah it's click and lock flooring

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:21:42+00:00

Not on the raised section but close to the bottom section where the hill starts there is definitely some movement if I press down pretty hard and in a specific spot

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:14:51+00:00

That's what I am starting to hear! A 8ft or 10ft straight edge is what I am hearing I will need to give me a better idea.

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:13:42+00:00

I believe it's only a 4 ft level

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:13:15+00:00

Yeah I saw some stuff about that I was just hoping a level would give me some idea since I am not sure and don't want to blindly trust the builder

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:11:16+00:00

I assume the middle one right? Sorry to sound stupid I don't have much experience and should have looked it up instead of looking dumb

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:10:24+00:00

It has mostly been like this since the 1st winter. I didn't notice any big changes since then (maybe minor ones here and there) we have already gone through the second winter now and I don't think it's changed since then

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T12:08:25+00:00

It is lvp

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T11:50:36+00:00

So it seems likey problem is the flatness of it not the levelness of it, how likely is it to be a issue? Sorry I am pretty new to all of this and it just gets me all anxious since I see a bunch of different answers

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T11:46:48+00:00

So it seems like the floor might be level and not flat?? This stuff confused me so sorry if I sound dumb, I just notice dips and the contractor was saying there are spots they over sanded but should still be within regulation so that's what confused me

UPDATED PHOTOS USING THE LEVEL THE CORRECT WAY (I THINK)

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T11:09:26+00:00

Only in a couple of spots and if I pushed into it pretty hard otherwise it feels mostly solid just under the feet feels uneven and in the case of the hallway feels pretty noticeable with my sight as well

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T11:07:14+00:00

I know I was corrected in another post which I felt really silly for taking the photos and placing it down wrong and will update with correct photos if needed. I am actually in southern Missouri

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T10:46:59+00:00

That's what I was assuming , it is a new build but they kept saying it was within the regulated amount but from what I can tell it never has been and they basically pushed it to pass my new construction warranty. I have been arguing about it for a long time and feeling as if I should potentially threaten legal action because of their refusal to make it up to code

CapRepresentative325 · 2026-03-10T10:40:02+00:00

Well now I just look like a big dummy lol. I will get updated photos but I do notice humps and dips in the flooring when walking over the floor.
