Greetings. Today I had to do some electrical work and I moved the
fridge. When I moved it back, I found that one of the legs of the
fridge tore my kitchen floor. I'm trying to figure out how to best
repair it.

I believe the floor is vinyl, but I don't know what it is. It could be
laminate or even Linoleum. Beat's me. I am an idiot when it comes to
flooring and identification/terminology. What I can tell you is that
it's the stuff you commonly see on kitchen floors. It comes in a huge
roll and it's a plastic rubber-type sheet that's glossy and often is
patterned to look like tile. You can walk into any Home Depot and
you'll see it.

Anyway, any suggestions how I can patch this flooring? It's still
mostly intact (there's a flap) and I can essentially push it back into
it's original place without difficulty. But...obviously...I want to be
able to seal it down so it's flush and not too noticeable.

Thanks!
