Floors in all my rentals still holding up great. Had a slight slope in one bedroom recently and I remembered this easy fix! Thanks again. Very creative !

[@Cello69.]

I don’t have laminate floor but I do appreciate the idea of attaching a tire inflator to the great stuff nozzle. That’s pure genius. Not long ago I needed to inject foam into a narrow opening. I racked my brain for a solution. The best I came up with was using the front of a pen. It worked but the inflator would’ve been better.

[@deniskawano668]

Great idea! It worked for me. Beats tearing up the floor. Thanks so much!!

[@MrRB708]

I’m in the middle of a replacement floor and have found a little dip in the subfloor after installing about three feet beyond it. Will be trying this solution. Thanks for sharing your idea.

[@acidraindrops6657]

You're incredible for this quick fix sir! Literally, whatever you believe in, God bless you for this! A time saver indeed!!!!

[@MrLutzyboy]

Your Video on laminate floor was ABSOLUTELY GREAT on so many levels. Listen People! If replacing the floor is the option a Pro would do then why not give a $20 fix a shot and see the results. I loved the Puritans say this was a horrible job! I loved the People who loved this trick and I even loved the idea of glue instead of Great Stuff. Even the guy who wanted to come up from the bottom of the sub floor to inject the stuff ..AMAZING.. This video got people together talking and thinking. Thank you to all the people with the "should not be tried" comments, I do see your points made..they are quite valid and have experience behind them. I am being called in to repair a floor and have the quote to replace the floor, a quote to repair the sunk in areas....And, now I have an idea to try it myself. A big THANK YOU to the Author of this video; You have provided inspiration!

[@longlivelinux90]

If ur replacing the floor, use a leveling compound and make it flat for when you put the new one down. Thats as complicated as it has to be. But most times people wanna save a little money

[@randybrandes8885]

I'm impressed, as a floor installer, I have bought the expensive kits to do fills, but I like the foam spray trick

[@amyrose7261]

What is the kit called? We are nervous about drilling in to the floor. We have a few low or soft spots

[@jonathand3613]

No matter what product/kit you use your gonna have to drill into the floor. Installers do it all the time so theres really nothing to worry about. I usually drill into a knot where the hole can be easily hidden. I normally use Dritac repair glue but its expensive compared to this foam stuff. Ima give it a try the next time I have a repair.

[@johnd9357]

@@amyrose7261 drilling into the floor is really no big deal. If you drill into a seam or knot, you will never notice a little 1/16 inch hole once it’s filled. Don’t stress!

[@kevbew63]

IT WORKED! I did everything the same as the video except I drilled a few holes at once in case the foam needed more space to expand. I went very slow and alternated between the holes. When I was done I left Olympic weights on it overnight to make sure it wouldn't buckle. I wasn't about to tear the floor up for one soft spot. To all the people saying prep the floor beforehand, no duh. That would obviously be better but unless you have a time machine to go back before the floor was installed, this quick fix is cheap and easy.

Yeah I used this method to stop our new subfloor that was squeaking in certain places. We had secured the boards and counter sunk the screws but somehow there was just enough of a space for the subfloor to give a bit and cause squeaks and creaks. Drilled a hole or 2 where needed slid the little hose in and give it a shot of window & door trim expanding foam. Being the subfloor was screwed down SECURE the foam only filled within the areas it could get into and expanded only as much as the gap available. No squeaking, no creaking and no feeling like it had any give. Also remedied the possibility of causing the new vinyl to be damaged due to that slight subfloor shift/movement.

This works ridiculously well, if you are ever in Edmonton I owe you a beer. Like others said, this video is for people who made the error of laying floor on an uneven surface, not for those smart enough to level it correctly beforehand

[@luckystrike656]

When I was buying new floors my first choice was vinyl but everybody said that it requires perfectly even surface. Since I had old tiles and parquet they advised me to go with laminate because, with a the 3 or 5mm underlay, it can withstand some imperfections. Now I now it's not the case. I bought 10mm 33 class laminate and now I regret not buying 15mm one. I installed 85m2 of it and the price difference was significant but still..... I have some part that are moving when walking over and one piece that is cracking. I suppose that the one that cracks was not installed correctly and the V groove does not match. I was wandering if I could drill from under the pavement and then do something similar and then I came across this video. Even if I would prefer not to drill on new laminat the procedure is inevitable. Will it work? And will the hole do problems in future after few years of washing?

[@kori_88]

My first attempts at leveling large rooms seemed to go well but it became apparent that even tiny undulations left LOTS of soft spots all over my floors. I'm basically turning my floors into swiss cheese doing this I have so many places but it SEEMS to be working pretty well so far. Ive done about 12-15 holes and it's definitely much better. TIP: Ive been laying large heavy slabs of old countertop over the floor where I filled to press things level and try to avoid any swelling. Which also SEEMS to work well. Fortunately I have a "natural/worn" style engineered hardwood, so the holes aren't too noticable and I've even been able to hide the foam dots with a bit of matching wood stain. Thanks for saving my ass man. I hope I can find enough cans of foam to fix this squishy floor of mine!

I did this repair on a few spots on my engineered wood (snap together and glued down) flooring. It worked well (so far). No more popping noise that annoyed me. The foam did not spread-out as much as I thought it would. You might have to apply this treatment in a few different places to remove the whole soft-spot. Do wear gloves as the foam stuff will not come off of your hands! Some excess spilled on the floor but cleaned up nicely with mineral spirits (paint thinner).

Honestly I'm not sure if this would hold up long term, maybe in low traffic areas. We used great stuff to seal off a few exhaust holes in our shop and let me tell you whatever it touches it owns! For the people that already have the floor down not wanting to tear it up, it's a pain in the @$$ and very easy to break joints.. For those that do I recommend Planipatch by Mapei to fill those low spots in. Epoxy works great too, but not cheap. PC Concrete is amazing stuff for filling cracks and have used it on a few carpet nail pullouts. It would be interesting to pull up one of those spots in a few years and see how well it did...

The hardwood was an engineered floor installed floating. Glued edges. It worked great. The floor still has flexibility as far as expansion.
