Vinyl plank flooring repair question

[Dixie]

What say y'all? My vinyl plank flooring is damaged, and I'm thinking I can fix it myself. Am I correct, or foolish?

The problem is there's a low spot at the entrance to my kitchen. The planking springboards over it, and has developed a crack. (The house was built in 1925, so nothing is really level anymore.)

My plan to fix it is to unsnap the flooring in the kitchen until I reach the low spot. Fill it, and then reinstall the floor.

Other pertinent points:
*Flooring installer is unknown.
House has a raised foundation. (By raised, I mean by about two feet.)
*My neighbor says the floor is about 2 years old. I bought the house a year ago.
*Flooring is Pro-Core Charleston Oak from Home Depot. I believe its still available.
* Low spot feels to be about two feet across and less than a 1/8" gap.
* I plan to cut any new planks, if needed, with a utility knife. I don't own a saw.
*Low spot is just before peninsula seen in photo.

I think you should be able to fix it yourself, but I'm not the guy to give you the advice for that. THere are a handful of guys on the board that are experts at vinyl flooring.

You'll have to remove base board on 3 walls and unclick the flooring wall to wall to the damaged board. Stack systematically to make the puzzle easier to put back together. Hopefully the installer left extra boards somewhere but if not, swap the bad board to less conspicuous spot Buy a box of Feather Finish at Home Depot and skreet the fill flat with a straight edge (a length of anything straight and long enough)

There's one of the experts that I was talking about! Greg is the man, or at least one of them.

Thank y'all, especially on the feather finish recommendation.
I'll look to see if there's any extra planks in the attic once it cools off some. That'll be around Thanksgiving.

Might have a hard time cutting with a utility knife.Be careful. Those planks tend to make utility blades slip

Cutoff wheel with a dremel is how my buddy did it, but just for doorways and such

[gregpark]

His pieces are already cut so there shouldn't be any cutting involved. I have specialty tools for cutting but a Saber saw is safe, more accurate, doesn't melt the plastic and works fine with LVT

For long straight cuts, I was able to use a utility knife and straight edge. I used a couple/few passes of the knife. I used a jig saw for small/curved cuts.
