We've just had Pergo laminated flooring laid in hall, kitchen and downstairs loo (on a concrete screeded floor). £1,500 total, balance due to be paid today. It *looks* fine, but we're very unhappy. In maybe half a dozen places, it creaks when you step on it. The fitter made no mention of it before he left, clearly in a hurry to finish after the 2-day job.
I spent ages yesterday walking on the affected areas, optimistically hoping that it would show signs of 'bedding in'. But it's now clear that's not going to happen. And I know we're not going to be able to live with this constant creaking.
I'm mortified at the prospect of having it all removed and replaced, even if the supplier agrees to that. But I'm resolute that I'm not going to pay the £750 balance today.
Any advice/suggestions would be much appreciated please.
