Is it possible to repair without replacing laminate floor?

cherry76

there is a small gap between the laminate flooring, can this be fixed without replacing pl?

Yes, best way is to put a bead of wood glue or something like no more nails etc and then push the flooring back to close the gap.

You might then have to do the same at the next one until you reach the one that is under the skirting or unit.

Was there something in that gap? If you push them together it looks like they wouldn't fit properly anyway. Maybe had some sort of filler piece in between. I'd try as above first, but if it doesn't work, try cutting a piece of wood to fit the gap.

Hello

Is this pieace next to skirting?

If so, do this. A rubber mallet, non-slip rubber, etc.—put the rubber etc on the laminate andhit it at an angle as not to damage the laminate but to drag along the wood gradually as fas as you can.

Something like this - I've done it to our oak flooring where as small gap appeared on a smaller length next to the skirting board

or try this method both work - watch from about 1 min 40 seconds.

I hope it works.

Once you get the ends back together, buy a laminate repair kit and fill in the damaged areas at each corner. You can mix colours to get a good match.
