We have a problem with the floor in our BT. The factory say they have never seen it before. At least this time I'm not the one in a thousand. Problem is a floor board has come adrift from a cross member,lifted and split the vinyl. BT have said that to do the repair properly a section of vinyl needs to be cut out to give access to screw the board back down. I guess then I could get the vinyl welded back into place.
Has anybody else ever had this problem,and if so is the above the best way of going about repairs ? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Also can anybody recommend a vinyl welder on the Sunshine Coast.
Lawrie.

Hi, we googled vinyl doctor, located an outfit near the Gold Coast.
Suggest you do that in your area AND ask for references AND try to see a sample of their work.
Hopefully you have some extra of the original floor.
I do not know the stage you are at; you might want to have the person lift the vinyl before the repair is commenced.

How long have you had your van?
What you should consider is removing all of the visible floor!
They can remove the table leg, cut out the vinyl around the furniture, put in a new piece (remember you only need strips), and then some type of molding.
That is probably what I would consider.
Simply pick a pattern that you like that is not pattern dependent.
