Q: I am trying to find help on our laminate flooring. We installed it as instructed about 3-4 years ago, left the space on the side, etc. About 1 year later it started snapping. Now it is so bad I cannot stand it! It even snaps now throughout the winter, so it is not the humidity.
I want to take it apart and reinstall, but how do I get it apart without destroying it?
I have contacted the company that made it and home depot where we bought it and nobody wants to help. This is a beautiful floor and it cost us a good penny.
A: If it is a click joint type of floor, you should be able to start at one of the walls and lift it out. You will have to remove the quarter round and may damage parts of the first row.
