Here is something that you may have seen in your kitchen hardwood floors as time goes by. Its called "washboard", its when the edges of your floor is high with the center is at sinking in. This is natural as time goes by, and yes you should do something about it.
Moisture through the imbalance is the cause, the material was manufactured flat so it was installed flat. What you want to do is find the cause of the moisture.
Cause
- Airborne - humidity - dehumidify the area
- wet basement - ventilate - dehumidify - use fans to cover the vents & crawlspace
- Expansion - if you had expanded the hardwood floors this may have moved the floor tight to vertical surfaces
- Allow time, take time for floor to adjust, after stabilized sand flat and if applicable apply a quality hardwood floor seal. Get a quality brand concrete floor coating designed for hardwood settings.
