I installed about 600 sq.ft. of engineered hardwood flooring in our house. Well it seems there was a bad flashing on the roof and water ran down the wall onto the floor so I have to remove about 30 sq. ft. I have stopped the water problem at the source. Well the flooring is on a slab so it's glued down. I have a hand floor scraper and an old 2" wood chisel these work great on vinyl floors so there my weapons of choice any other ideas on what to use? I'm trying to keep the dust down . I used a peanut grinder with a wire brush to clean the floor before the install what a mess even holding a shop vac. by it. Now before anybody ask putting in a insurance clame would raise my rates. The previous owner probably had no idea about the leak very thick carpet plus dog used room for a toilet.
