    It’s so refreshing to see people actually repair things on a budget rather than go out & replace the whole floor. It’s so hard to find videos like yours. We really need them.

    Thank you so much... I just bought a house with no major items to repair (that I know of yet) just things I'd like to do... Meanwhile my son's 10 month old German Shepherd tore up a bit bigger area than what you repaired. Wanted to work on the yard and not replace the Kitchen and Dining rm flooring so this video seems like it will help me. I have the left over flooring and you have given me the incentive to give it a try myself. now all I need is the courage to make those seams look as nice as you did.Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

    That was a nice video, if I had smaller, less texture-heavy blemishes in my vinyl floors, what would you recommend? I feel like the go-to solution would be some kind of punch for a seamless insert, as long as I have a matching sample this should be fairly easy to pull off... maybe? I'm barely bothered by blemishes but I kind of like working piecemeal on my apartment, so that's something I'm gonna wanna tackle.

    Thank you very much for showing me how to repair a hole in my floor. The apartment where I live has a very poor cement board which is crumbling under my floor and under the carpet in their hall. I had inlay vinyl put down nine years ago and the rollers on my furniture are braking down the cement board underneath, but everything brakes the stupid cement board. I am going to try your repair on this piece and hope it works; I really don't know what to do because I can't afford to put down a sub-floor and inlay on top.
