Although the laminate has high stability, but, unfortunately, it is far from eternal. After prolonged and especially active use, it is damaged, and this happens in places. In some cases, the damage may be minor, so fixing them will not be particularly difficult. For example, if there are scratches on the surface, then, depending on their depth, you can use ordinary hard-brewed tea, special grouts or wax. But there are times when a full board replacement may be required.
It is not necessary to open the entire floor to replace just one or two elements, because it will require much more time and labor, moreover, it is completely inexpedient.
There are two approaches for local replacement, in the first case, disassembly is required, and in the second, the use of a circular saw.
In the case of disassembly, everything is simple, it is enough to disassemble the boards and just replace the damaged ones. But here damage is important, if the board is extreme, then no problems will arise, everything can be done very quickly.
How to prepare
It is important to make the right selection of a new board and its preparation for laying. If you have not yet removed the old board, then you have to do everything in the store "by eye". If you got it, then you can saw off a piece and go with him to pick up a new panel. The second method is more preferable, because In this case, you can pick up an identical tone.
After the purchase, the panel should just stay at your place for a couple of days, especially in the cold season. You can start laying only after that. This is due to the fact that the board during this time heats up to your room temperature and absorbs moisture from the air, after which it will not change.
Sawing
If the damaged part is far from the walls, then it is better to simply cut it out. To do this, several points are marked on the board, in general, they should make a rectangle that will be smaller than the panel itself. After that, sawing occurs at the indicated points.
Sawing is best done in parts, connecting the dots with each other. Sawing is done very carefully so as not to damage adjacent boards. The sawn surface and the remainder of the panel are removed, it is convenient to do this with pliers. A new board is laid in their place, which has already stood for some time in the room.
