"Hi Joyce, if you have any of the flooring left then providing you get someone who knows what they are doing you can take it back up from the edges until you get to the broken part, being careful not to break the clicking lips. Then you can fit the spare piece and lay it all back together. Again it depends on if its a cut piece around a door frame or an end piece. I would recommend getting someone who knows what they are doing, you should be paying no more than £100 if there's cuts to do and no more than £60 if no cuts are required."
