Now, you can prepare the replacement plank by cutting it to the required size using a utility knife or saw. Ensure the dimensions match the existing planks to create a seamless look. Once the replacement piece is ready, apply adhesive to the backside and carefully insert it into the empty space, aligning it with the surrounding pieces.

To secure the new plank in place, use a hammer and chisel to gently tap the edges, ensuring a snug fit. Finally, clean any excess adhesive, allow the plank to fully dry, and test its stability by walking or applying pressure on it.

Remember to follow the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines for the specific LVP flooring you are working with, as the process may vary slightly. By following these steps, you can easily replace a damaged piece of LVP flooring and maintain the beauty and functionality of your floor.
