How to replace floating floor boards?

Kind of a Big Deal

How to replace floating floor boards?

I'm too ashamed to explain how the water ingress remained undetected for so long - but you see the damage.

I was thinking of experimental surgery by removing the affected section with a multi-function tool and replacing new boards with glue to the concrete.

If the boards consent - what tool blade?

How to cut an acceptable straight line?

What glue?

Will the unaffected adjacent board flex too much, with the remaining underlay?

Has anyone pioneered this surgery before?

Feasible?

 

Any thoughts welcome! 👍

I saw this glue recently...

Hi @MitchellMc 

 

I'm thinking 2017 - but that's just a guess.

If there are further problems - I'll just do the room again with something else from Bunnings.

As I mentioned from the start - it's all just experimental surgery - just to see if it could be done.

 

Cheers!

Graeme.
