    How Can I Fix Linoleum Peeling Up in a Hard to Reach Area?
    About 2-3" of linoleum along the edge of my cupboards in my kitchen is curling away from the particle board and I am not sure the best way to fix it. The cupboards hang out 2" over the flooring and 3" above it so I cannot get to the problem area very well.

    My plan has been to remove the thin pieces of trim, find a way to get some adhesive under the flooring, then add some thicker trim pieces that can hold the edge down. Is there an easier way than this to fix my problem?

    Thanks!

    Try placing a brown paper bag over the curling tiles then press down with a clothes iron.

    Put a small bead of silicone between floor and linoleum. Press down , wipe up excess and put a few books on it as a weigh. Leave for about an hour.
