"Mr Zavala was hired to replace the existing heart pine flooring with a new subfloor and hardwood flooring. After a couple of weeks he still had not finished removing the old flooring. After applying some pressure to get the job, he proceeded to install the subfloor on the second floor in a shoddy manner, leaving us with an uneven subfloor. He also installed the subfloor with improper nails (smooth shank) when he should have used screws or at least ring shank. In addition, there were spots where he removed the old flooring (which functions as a subfloor in old houses) underneath a partition wall, causing the partition wall to sag. At that point we lost confidence in him and fired him. Unfortunately, we had paid him half the money at the start of the job and he only completed about 1/4 of it (badly). We subsequently got estimates from other contractors who told us he had installed the subfloor incorrectly, cutting the panels too small and not using the built in grooves to align the panels. Furthermore, they informed us that it is standard professional practice to inform the owner of the value of their existing flooring, which was long-leaf heart pine. We should have been compensated for this removed material which has considerable salvage value. So it it clear that he was taking his sweet time to remove the old heart pine so that he could maximize its value to him. Furthermore, a $1000 bicycle went missing while he was working in the house, which I suspect was taken by one of his workers. Needless to say, hire this guy at your own risk."

Yes, you can repair damaged laminate flooring yourself, especially for minor scratches and gouges on the surface. If you're considering a DIY repair, make sure you have extra matching boards to replace any that get damaged during the process. This method requires precise handling and the right tools to ensure a smooth, lasting fix that maintains your floor's functionality and appearance.
Replacing one or two pieces of laminate flooring involves removing the damaged boards and installing a new one. The best method for this starts at the closest wall. Remove the trim and pull up boards until you reach the damaged one. Then, replace that board and reinstall any planks you took out to get to that board.
Swollen laminate flooring indicates that excess moisture has permanently compromised the board’s structure. Repairing the swollen area is not possible because the integrity of the laminate is lost. You must replace the affected flooring entirely to restore both strength and appearance. In addition, identifying and eliminating the moisture source is crucial to prevent further damage.
Water that gets under laminate flooring immediately compromises the integrity of both the planks and the subfloor. It soaks into the materials and triggers aggressive mold growth while degrading the flooring structure. Immediate and thorough drying is essential; failure to remove the moisture necessitates complete replacement of the affected materials to restore safety and durability.
Laminate flooring is designed to last between 15 and 25 years under optimal conditions. Heavy usage or significant moisture exposure can cause the floor to require replacement sooner. High‑end laminate engineered with superior durability ratings delivers unwavering performance for up to 50 years when maintained meticulously. Regular inspections and immediate repairs preserve the floor's integrity and visual appeal.
