Hardwood Floor Repair-DIY

Josh and a hardwood pro share insider tips of the trade on floor repair. This video is part of Disaster House show hosted by Josh Temple . SHOW DESCRIPTION :As other networks build and improve on homes, DIY Network actually has the guts to totally destroy its very own house just to repair it! Disaster House suffers very real damage like dropping a half-ton piano from almost 10 stories high, sponsoring the first sanctioned roller derby inside the living room, and having Page, an 8,000-pound African Elephant, help clog the toilet. These outrageous experiments accelerate the typical wear and tear a house incurs and mimic common catastrophes so viewers can discover what it takes to repair some of the biggest mishaps homeowners face today.

When installing the last piece of replacement floor plank, why can't you remove ONLY the bottom part of the groove? I'd think that the tongue could stay in place, and the plack could just be rotated into position, once the tongue is in place. I can see that it would be necessary to remove the tongue at the END of the plank, but not necessarily along the edge. Or maybe I'm mistaking in thinking that the tongue is square, rather than rounded? Or maybe round off the tongue, so it COULD slip in.
