Do dogs scratch LVP flooring?

• <div><p>Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring is a thick, high-quality vinyl that joins with click-lock edges. Unlike some budget vinyl flooring, it’s tough, easy to install, and scratch-resistant. While this means it’s much less likely to get damaged by your dog’s claws, it isn’t scratch-proof. Regularly trimming long dog nails reduces the risk of scratch marks and helps keep your dog comfortable.</p></div>

Will buckled floors go back down?

• <div><p>If there’s minimal buckling and it was caused by minor moisture damage, the planks may lay flat again once you’ve addressed the underlying issue. However, laminate floors that have experienced significant moisture damage won’t lay flat and must be replaced. If the issue only affects one or two boards, you can replace them yourself relatively easily. However, it’s best to call a pro if the problem is more widespread.</p></div>

Q: How can I repair minor floor scratches?

• <div><p>Even with proper floor protection, small scratches sometimes happen. If it&rsquo;s just a minor scuff, you can often buff it out with a sponge and a bit of floor polish. For slightly worse scratches, there are a variety of scratch removal products that may help, including finish restorer and blending pencils.</p></div>

• <div><p>As you look for quotes for flooring repair, consider how the severity of the problem and the accessibility of the damage will impact your costs and budget.</p><p>Refinishing a few hardwood planks with minor scratches will cost thousands of dollars less than completely replacing an entire water-damaged floor. Likewise, a first-floor structural problem in a house with an unfinished basement is easy to access from below, while a similar issue on a second-story floor will require your flooring pro to remove several layers to get to the damage.</p></div>

Q: Does vinyl flooring scratch easily?

• <div><p>In general, vinyl flooring resists scratches, dents, and tears, but this can vary from one type of vinyl (and manufacturer) to another. Vinyl flooring has a wear layer that ranges in thickness from 6 to 20 millimeters. This layer offers protection against standard scratches, but vinyl with a thicker wear layer will resist scratches better than those with a thin layer.</p></div>
