Almost every kind of hardwood flooring of solid wood will have a reaction to moisture. During winter, the moisture will evaporate from the wood, causing the flooring to contract. This can result in horrid looking gaps between every plank. During summer, as humidity peaks, the flooring will expand and the spaces between planks soon vanish. In case an abundance of moisture accumulates, it often causes the wooden planks to buckle up or cup. This is one reason why it is crucial during installation to have a margin between planks for the expansion and contraction. The wood should also be prepared before installation to minimize such occurrences in future.
