Laminate flooring repair or expansion gap

€100
Task Assigned

Description

Laminate floor has lifted slightly at the front door and is making the door very difficult to open/close. The metal threshold/transition strip appears to be holding the flooring. Need the flooring released/trimmed and the strip refitted so the door operates normally.

Hi there, I can fix this for you. This is a common laminate expansion issue at the door threshold. I can remove the metal strip, trim the laminate to create an expansion gap, and adjust the door if needed so it opens/closes freely. I have all tools needed and I am available this Saturday morning at 7:30 AM. I am based in Dublin. Could you let me know if the door is catching on the top of the laminate? Thanks, Catalin
