refiting laminate flooring - from wrong edge.
Hi.
I am having to re-lay some lam flooring at the end from where I originally fited it. Taking it up was easy enough of course, but is there a technique for fitting the stuff from the wrong direction? Thanks. Arthur |

Well...I might have found a method...using another piece of laminate to use as a hammer block. But fugg knows how I'm gonna get the last pieces in. Arthur |

Arthur I used a clamp puller to get the last piece of mine in, the type used for laminate flooring as most reach across the room -- Mart |
