Very messy parquet laying work - Is rework not possible?

yes, so-so, a third-party company still has to come to renew the crooked joints at the transitions or replace the floorboards and then lay them continuously again.

Can we get before-and-after pictures?

Can one get before-and-after pictures?

Yes, I will do that, but it will take a little while.

Can you easily do that without causing more damage than it helps?

Maybe I'm blind, but where in the photos is it not laid continuously?

Maybe it would be an option to just replace the cork with a better color.

Cork joints are visible in all door areas. Although I find the cork joints terribly ugly, they are reportedly necessary according to the parquet installer, they must not be cut crooked. For example, a cork joint at the left corner is 1.7 cm, at the right corner 0.8 cm. There is no DIN standard that allows cork joints to be crooked. The parquet installer’s suggestion was to straighten all crooked joints. That again means they will become oversized everywhere. There are a total of 7 cork expansion joints. All were cut untidily and unevenly and crooked. Visitors have already asked, "Is it going to stay like this?" For a contract amount of almost 25,000 EUR, this is unacceptable. Especially the cork joints between tiles and parquet were impossible. Since I could no longer look at them, I repaired them myself (see pictures bathroom and guest WC). From the start, I did not want any transition profiles, but now I think this is a good solution. The other transitions will be repaired sometime later. A good parquet installer today can cut out and replace a plank from the middle of a room. In the other door areas, one plank each has to be replaced; in the bathrooms it would be six planks each.

Looks clearly better and intentional! Really insane how crooked and uneven the adjacent floorboards were cut by the floor layer. Apparently, he didn’t even use a circular saw, but instead started freehand with the jigsaw o_O

This is approximately what my attempt looked like in my first own apartment. No prior experience, no guidebooks read...
