    Whoever disliked this video needs to have their head examined. He literally went through every possible scenario to fix this type of flooring in great detail. Amazing tutorial and I'll definitely be using a couple of these to fix my own flooring.

    As a female, learned from your video more than I have from any other instructional video. I had two boards damaged and because of you I know it can be repaired. Thanks.

    I had a really bad set of scratches (much worse than video) from moving a refrigerator by myself sideways through a door on my brand new lifeproof flooring which isn't so life proof BTW, and I was worrying about it for a few weeks while I was finishing the other interior stuff in my new home. I purchased the old english dark wood scratch cover and am still amazed how well it covered the scratch. You absolutely cant see it and this is vinyl flooring. I really appreciate the poster. He did a great job and really saved me time and $$.

    This is excellent. I had a pipe leak under the sink that went under the laminate flooring. I couldn't get it out for love nor money, but after watching this video I'm confident I can do it. I'm also going to attempt covering the scratches at my front door. Thank you so much!!

    That ... was ..... *EXCELLENT* ! Just the facts. Clear instruction. Potential hazards to avoid highlighted. Reasons for doing things logically explained. Perfect demonstration with no cuts. A real professional showing a real world example. If only all YTube instructional videos - on any topic - were as clear and concise as this. It proves that you don't need fancy titles, camera, editing to convey great information. Well done and greetings from Prague ! It's only a pity you only did one video :( Please do some more ! I think you would get a huge number of subscribers

    I'm about to attempt this and found the video invaluable. If I could suggest one thing for beginners like me (Art is obviously very experienced) then it would be to cut away from yourself every time until you're really confident. I can just imagine my hand slipping and causing an injury!

  • @jerrytalley802
    @jerrytalley802 4 роки тому +1

    Enjoyed your repair video, it was very much real life. I saw a professional one on Pergo and the guy was using a track saw. I have every tool known to man and don’t own a track saw, so thanks for making it simple.
    How about a complete installation of new flooring? I just installed some pergo outlast and the written instructions I tried to follow and “no way”! Thankfully I found some videos that confirmed the way I did it on my own was right. I’m sure you would do a great new install video since you live in the real world, not a laboratory where everything goes right. Your challenge when the new board was slightly smaller, used the mallet to scoot it into place.
    I widened an opening going into my attic and now have to replace 2 or 3 brand new laminate floor boards I just installed before we decided to move a 34” love seat through a 28” opening. Thanks for your help, keep them videos coming, I subscribed and liked this one

    Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial. I do have another question though. Recently we had a hot water leak and the water ran over and under the flooring. We now have some really bad looking floorboards. Once we rip out the damages according to your methods do we need to cut out the foam underlayment. I'm concerned about mold. Thank you for all of your advice and examples.

    Wow, thanks for this video. I have 2 damaged planks in my living/ dining room and all the companies (5) that I have contacted to see if they can repair have said that the entire floor needs to get redone. All of it!! Yeah right- it’s just $$$ they want from me and I call major BS- they said they can’t replace individual planks- UA-cam is loaded with videos showing otherwise and this video is great, proof that it’s totally possible. Wish this guy was in Chicago to do my floor 🥲. Anyone from here with suggestions of anyone who does this type of job?
