I wonder how glued on planks look after 2 years
@@uiliumpowell4684 I have done numerous repairs like this and never any any combat with my repair messing up. Plus the manufacturer would not recommend this method if it would be a problem on their end in the future.
Thanks, you so much for educational video! Take care too!
@@scottfailing7045 you’re welcome, merry Christmas
😊
I have a flooring company and do some installs and repairs myself from time to time. This is one the best instructional videos on the subject ever, certainly better than most of the flooring manufacturers' videos. Kudos and a big like to the Southern boys from MI!
Thank you sir
You know your a pro when you got pro knees
I agree with alexander. perfect repair!! great instructional video!!
Very nice and easy instructional video! This helps beginners and experienced journey men. Thank you
I can't thank you enough for posting this detailed video on the process of replacing a damaged plank!! Great job!
This is an EXCELLENT video. Great detail and easy for anyone to follow.
Ive been doing floors over 20 years.. This guy is a great teacher.. Spot on..
Thank you , I really appreciate that man
@@FloorsbySouthernboys keep up the great work..

You saved my bacon, I was ready to pull up all the flooring to get to the bad plank. Thanks for a very informative video.
You’re welcome
Thank you for this! I installed my floor myself and it needs repairs in several places. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
Glad you found it useful, and good luck on your repairs buddy
As a female DIYer, this is one of the best instructional videos I’ve seen. Thanks. I would love to see how to get unsightly “gaps” out of my floor. Also, how the remove a previous shine that was damp mopped onto the floor.
Thank you. And when I get to the situation, I will show that repair.
Thanks for the tips on repairs. Will be doing one soon. Much love from LA. Graham Floor Covering

Thank you so much for this video. I was worried I was going to have to rip out part of my kitchen floor when I had new cabinets installed but this helped me so much. Amazing job!!
That’s good to hear, glad it helped
Thank you very much for this. I was literally about to start taking apart an entire room when I came across this video (and part 1). I haven’t been able to get the original installers out. You saved me a ton of time and it worked perfectly. I wish I could throw some work your way but I’m in Alaska. Thanks again.
Glad to hear
Doing this for the first time tomorrow. Thanks for the advice. I normally do hardwood repairs, this will be my first LVP repair
I’m sure it will turn out right
Nice job. Great details and explained fully without assuming people knew anything.
😀👍
Thank you for this video, I have been doing my own home repairs lately and to know you can do this with a blade is a relief since I'm not comfortable using power tools!! Awesome!!
You’re welcome and I hope your repair turns out great
Very well detailed. Like the other guy said “one of the best examples and explanations “. Very good!
Glad you liked it!
Amazing amazing video, take all my likes and subscription, well deserved. For many reasons we wanted LVP and a contractor was trying to talk me out of it because "if even one board is damaged you have to rip everything up leading up to the board". I know there was a way and he was being a salesman. The industry is too huge for there not to be ways to repair after install. THANK YOU SIR!!
Absolutely, that is ridiculous to think that
Oy mate. Well bloody done. I am an NWFA certified Advanced Installer. I've got the paper work to prove it. I'm also a soccer coach so explaining simple concepts can be difficult at times. I think you did a great job mate. I have installed borders, medallions, mixed media, you name it, etc. You just taught a 20 some year flooring veteran how to do a lvp board replacement. Mad props to you. I've usually just dealt with real hardwood but have had a need to deal with lvp in the last 2 years. Your video was clear and precise. I'll be doing this Thursday for a customer 1/12/23 . Cheers mate
Awesome thank you for sharing that
@@FloorsbySouthernboys please inbox me.
Thanks for all the detail and explanation. Better to get it done right than just done. I have a couple of repairs to do on the floor I put down a couple of years ago, and now I have the details to do it right.
really great video bud. have the same cortec type flooring throughout my house and i need to repair a plank after 8 years. one finally was damaged by a painter haha. now you've given me a reason to buy another Dewalt saw and attempt this repair myself. thank you.
Awesome, good luck my friend
These videos just saved my butt
I accidentally torn up a tile while moving stuff around. Now I can fix it before my roommate gets home!
😀👍
Great temperature acclimation tip! Great angle cutting tips too! EXCELLENT!
😀👍
I did finally replace my plank and thanks to you... I worked out great!!!! Thank you so very much.
That’s really good to hear, congratulations on your successful replacement
Love the fact that you’re safe and tell people if you’re not comfortable pulling the utility knife towards you then lay it down. I’m a carpenter, I install doors and windows, I’m like you were not always the safest because we’re professionals, so that’s cool that you laid out the safety options for others because many that aren’t privy to our work will follow word for word. I’m not a flooring guy is why I’m in here and I had new lvp installed and had a small spot of sub floor dry rot afterwards so I have to fix it, I know enough about carpentry to do flooring but I’m only an expert on windows, doors, fences, and seamless gutters. Nice video!
Awesome, thank you buddy good luck with your repair
What a great video!! Thank you for always sharing what you do to help us become better installers!!
Thank you taught I’m glad you liked it buddy
Recently removed a small wall in my house and did not account for the missing flooring🙃 . Manageable easy to follow video for a novice DIYer. Thank you! Excellent explanation and demonstration. Excited to learn more from your content
Thank you very much for your feedback
absolutely outstanding instructional video (both this one and part 1). Thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed them,
Thanks bro, you explain things very well, you save me in a jam I have to replace a board that I made in overcut, now I get to keep the customers happy thanks a lot but
I just replaced one of my planks using your instructions. I didn't have a saw so it was tough cutting with a utility knife. But I finally got it out and it looks like new. Thanks for the video.
Awesome man
Very good and detailed instructive video. Just like some other posters I was afraid of having to replace half the kitchen. Now I’m confident I can tackle this project. Thanks for this video.
😀👍
Awesome video!!
Thank you
Thank you for the outstanding video. Now, even a guy from California can do a vinyl floor repair.
😂😂👍Awesome
Thank you!

Great information, explanation and demonstration.
Thank you,glad it helped
Thank you so much for this!!! … It’s all fun and games until a plank shifts out of place or gets damaged!
😀👍
Thank you so much friend, you’ve saved me a lots of time, I thought I had to remove bunch of planks in order to replace the damaged ones in the middle.
Awesome, good luck on your project, I hope it turns out well
Great video

Thank you
Thank you brother for sharing your skills....
Hopefully I get my project to look as perty this vid.
Well done👍👍
You’re welcome, you will do fine
Thanks so much for the very detailed and informative demonstration. I just replaced two damaged planks and it went very well thanks to you! My only concern was with one of the end joints; with the long tang removed there is only edge to edge contact for the crazy glue. I ended up using duck tape on the underside to assist in the bonding. I must say using the Gorilla gel type crazy glue worked great. Keep up the good videos.
Awesome, glad to help
Thanks , You are an excellent instructor after watching you I am trying the repair myself
Great video, thank you for showing me how to do this I have to do a plank in my home today
Good luck I hope it turns out great
Very nicely done! Really appreciate your attention to the details during explanation!

You’re welcome buddy thank you
Thank you for both videos. Amazing and simple to follow. I've been dreading having to do this until now.
Man that’s really great to hear, thank you for sharing that
thanks for the video... I needed to see how to replace a damaged plank myself..
Thank you for this. I had someone come out telling me I needed 8 boxes to fix two scraped up panels.
They were smoking something.
Just had about 1,000 sf installed and our biggest concern is "what if." I'm not a great handyman but I am sure I could make this repair based on your excellent video. Thanks!
Awesome
Excellent video dude
Thank you!! This is exactly the video I needed. Very helpful and detailed and you made it seem easy. Very much appreciated.

Thank you. Very informative video in small details. Very impressive. Thank you again
Great job sir long live
Very good video 👏
Thank you
once again the work is second to none. but the the volume being so low is about an equivalent as reading instructions in swedish
Yeah I’m not sure what happened to the volume on this one
😂
I'm comfortable with my blade cue to big old cut on his thumb knuckle 🤣
Had a guy do carpet for me, also had a big old cut on his hand from that super sharp carpet knife, just taped it up and kept going. Flooring guys are the best sometimes.
😂😂 we are a different breed
Very very nicely done sir Ty
Thank you kindly
Thank you for that helpful video.

Thank you for this. I had to do a rushed job installing my flooring ahead of moving in, and there are some spots that will need to be repaired before the year's out. I feel totally confident that I can do it and do it right now.
Awesome
Exactly what I needed. Thank you so much!
Awesome glad it helped
Exactly what I needed, thank you!

Useful video, however you may want to put a warning for eardrum shattering loud banging with the hammer and low volume voice for those with headphones.
Sorry about that sense switched microphones
You did a great job!!! I'm going to do this. Thank you

Thanks you’re the best
Thank you
You cut the bad board out, you then are able to move the boards at the end of the whole down a little. You use a 36 grit piece of sandpaper and sand off the small male side. So you keep the big side and both ends of replacement board. Put replacement board in, glue the big side of the board on the floor and then tap the existing boards towards the replacement board and they will lock in. You only need to modify one side of the replacement board
👍
I read your comment several times and am still confused. Are you saying to glue a floating floor down to the subfloor, or to glue the replacement board into the flooring system before tapping the end of the line back into place to meet up with the edge of the board? I would imagine this only works when replacing a floor not covered by baseboard, right?
Thank you, very helpful!!
Awesome, good luck with your repair
Great video. I had some water get under my LVP. The subfloor is concrete and we had Hurricane Elias run through our area. There's only a handful of areas where I see moisture coming up through the seams but I think I have to replace them because the dehumidifier and fan have been running for some days now and I still see a little moisture coming up.
Oh man that’s awful, if that was the case I would probably have just taken the floor up and let it dry properly to prevent mold
Solid work! Very impressive. This was very helpful.
Thank you, I’m really glad it was helpful for you
Great job. I don't know how you could improve it.
Thanks 4 help
Amazing video. Thank you.
Awesome review.
Thank you
Thank you for this. I have a piece of flooring in the middle of our living room that has a huge gash in it. I'm worried that over time, with the flooring being floating, that if I glue down a new piece down the edges will start to flip up one the flooring starts to settle over time.
Love your detailed instructions!
Thank you I really hope it helps
I may attempt this
Awesome work!!
Wonderful! Thank you so much!!!
