Vinyl floors are not only attractive, but they have the added advantages of being relatively inexpensive and easy to install. Indentations in vinyl floors can occur in a number of ways, including heavy objects falling on the floor or the constant pressure from a heavy piece of furniture. A piece of vinyl floor tiling that is severely damaged should be replaced. Although you can also remove the damaged part of the tile and insert a patch in its place, try a simple method of removing the indented area first.
- Putty knife
- Spoon
