Floor vinyl repair technique and tool

摘要

A floor covering repair technique and tool includes placement of a spacer between a patch and a damaged floor covering piece before cutting through both layers. This way, the replacement patch is elevated slightly above the damaged piece and this slight elevation allows for a slight increase in the perimeter/total area of the patch, which offsets the slight retraction/contraction of the edges of the patch and/or the edges of the original flooring after the cut. This results in a more exact fit between the patch and the surrounding, original undamaged when the patch is installed.
