About Our Reliable Tulsa Flooring Repair Services
When you originally chose your floor surface material and had it installed, you made an investment in the durability and appeal of your house or commercial property.

We have years of experience with a wide range of flooring repairs for tile, laminate and vinyl, so we know exactly how to get your surfaces back in excellent condition.
VINYL FLOORING REPAIR
Vinyl has been a popular choice since it began to be mass-produced in the 1950s, and it has been enjoying something of a renaissance over the last decade or so thanks to the introduction of luxury vinyl planks (LVP) and luxury vinyl tiles (LVT). These easy-to-maintain floor options are water-resistant and convincingly mimic the appearance of natural stone or hardwood. While LVP and LVT are highly durable, they can sometimes suffer problems such as gouges or sun bleaching. We can handle flooring repair for a variety of vinyl issues, such as:
- Cracks
- Stains
- Peeling top layer
- Scratches or gouges
- Edges are crumbling
TILE FLOORING REPAIR
Most buildings have at least a little tile on the floors or walls. Some types (ceramic, porcelain) are more durable and low-maintenance than other types (natural stone like slate or marble), but all varieties will eventually need flooring repair. Tulsa, Oklahoma professionals at Mr. Handyman of Greater Tulsa are experienced with tile repair for a number of issues, and can also take care of complete replacement installations when necessary. Common tile flooring repair problems we can fix include:
- Surface chips
- Hairline cracks
- Crumbling, dingy grout lines
- Replacing one or several smashed tiles
LAMINATE FLOOR REPAIR
While laminate may have gotten something of a bad reputation in the past for being old-fashioned, manufacturers have really brought it into the 21st century and modern laminate floors are typically very attractive. They're also available in a range of formats, including laminate planks that resemble natural wood. When it's time for laminate flooring repair, Tulsa, Oklahoma homeowners can call us for help with problems such as:
- Staining
- Discolored patches
- Peeling or lifting
- Bubbling

Frequently Asked Questions About Flooring Repair
IS IT POSSIBLE TO REPAIR CHIPS IN LUXURY VINYL PLANKS WITHOUT REPLACING THE PLANK?
Our team can take care of Tulsa flooring repair for minor chips and scratches in luxury vinyl planks or tiles by using epoxy filler and paint to hide the damage, leaving behind a smooth, flat surface. If it's worse than just surface damage and there's a gouge all the way through the plank or tile, the damaged piece will likely need to be replaced. When you have a new LVP or LVT surface put in, try to always save a few spare planks from the installation that can be used as replacements for damaged planks or tiles in the future.
CAN LAMINATE FLOORS BE REFINISHED?
Unfortunately, no. If you've got surface damage like staining on laminate boards, it's understandable that you may be wondering if you can easily take care of it with refinishing. The problem is that laminate is comprised of three layers: a base of MDF, an image layer that gives it its appearance, and a wear layer that protects the image and absorbs wear and tear damage. The wear layer is not that thick, so if you sand it you'll quickly hit the image layer and destroy it, leaving nothing but the MDF base layer behind. Refinishing isn't an option, but our handyman team can likely do something to help such as replacing the damaged plank altogether.
HOW DID MY TILE GET DAMAGED TO THE POINT THAT IT NEEDS FLOORING REPAIR?
When it comes to tile flooring repair, Tulsa, Oklahoma homeowners should try to uncover the source of the damage, in case there's a more serious problem that needs to be dealt with. Common causes of damage that call for Tulsa tile repair service include:
- Problems that began small, like a hairline crack and worsened from repeated pressure
- Normal building movement causes grout lines to crack and crumble over time
- Cracks and breaks due to a shifting or heaving foundation, or a warped subfloor
- Incorrectly installed floor joists causing the heavy tile surface to sag and crack
