How to use the laminate floor repair kit
Using our laminate floor repair kits is simple, as Fix-A-Floor has streamlined our products so even the most novice DIY enthusiasts can use them effectively. Follow these laminate floor repair instructions:
First off, you will need to decide whether you want to use the adhesive in the included 10:1 ratio caulk gun, or if you have rather thin grout lines, for a more precise, controlled application load the 60 ml syringe – part of our laminate floor injector kit – with our adhesive. The syringe is especially useful for hard-to-reach areas, like corners, where operating the caulk gun could be difficult.
The next step in laminate floor repair where you have creaky or moving floorboards is to drill some small holes in your laminate floor in the affected area.
Then, take off the cap of the adhesive tube and load it into the caulk gun. Insert the tube into the drilled holes and slowly squeeze the caulk gun trigger or syringe to allow a steady stream of adhesive to fill the holes. You can also use the micro-precision adapters or purposely designed 60ml syringe kit when fixing laminate floor gaps, for precise application as Fix-A-Floor dries clear.
Wipe away any excess spillage on the floor with a non-abrasive damp cloth. Don’t worry, the Fix-A-Floor Adhesive has been designed to be easily cleaned from all types of floor materials.
All that’s left to do now is allow the adhesive to cure for at least 24 hours and place weighted object, like a bucket of water, on the area you’ve applied. Once cured you can apply a matching wood-filler to the holes drilled to camouflage the repair. DIY laminate floor repair has never been so simple!

FAQs
The typical ways laminate flooring can get damaged include heavy furniture being dragged or dropped causing scratches or gouges, water damage from leaks, spills or high humidity, as well as incorrect installation. Using improper adhesives will result in loose, uneven-laid laminate, which can cause tears and rips at the seams over time. Other ways it can become damaged also include exposure to UV rays that will discolour the flooring over time.
