Last week our dishwasher started to leak.. we caught it after a minute or so and stopped the leak.. After removing the dishwasher, it appears as though just a small section of floor under the laminate might have got wet.. it is dry now.. BUT one small piece has started to peak on one corner.. The floor is a click floor. I have enclosed picture of the area in question.. the red square outlines the board that I want to replace because of a peaking in the yellow circle area.. question... can I just slide out the defective section (assuming I can get it loose) and slide a replacement in? I have a package of spare laminate sections.. or is this the start of something much larger? or... with the area that has peaked subside back into shape? Help please before I proceed with dishwasher replacement or contact homeowners insurance..

I have here some information... I this in some site that i research in google search...
Replacing Laminate Floor Boards
Step1
To replace a section of laminate floor, remove the molding near the floorboard using a screwdriver or hammer to loosen it. Make sure you do not damage the molding; you will need to put it back in the end.
Step2
Remove all boards leading up to the damaged board. They all click into place, much like a jigsaw puzzle. Once you have removed the damaged board, simply click a new board into place. Then back track and replace all of the boards leading up to the molding.
Step3
Replace the molding using a hammer to pound it back into place. Now your floor should look as good as new.
Hope you will like this little information... Have a nice day to all of you guys.. -
You need to take off the plank from the long side at the corner which is the nearest to the laminate floornig panel. You can hire a professional installer to repair the flooring if you feel it is too compicated to do the work.Comment
