The Plank Grabber:

The Professional’s Secret to Gap Repair

 

Stop chasing gaps. Fix your floors in minutes.

Logo with an orange star and blue lines, and the words 'Starmark' and 'TECHNOLOGY'.

Designed for the extreme expansion and contraction cycles of the Midwest, the Plank Grabber is the leading flooring gap fixer tool for both DIY enthusiasts and Prior Lake area flooring contractors.

  • Nano-Suction Technology: Unlike traditional pull bars that can damage baseboards, our tool uses advanced suction to "grip" individual planks without leaving a mark.

  • Perfect for Floating Floors: Specifically engineered to close gaps in LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank), laminate, and engineered hardwood.

  • Easy to Use & Save on Repairs: Avoid the $500+ service call. Close gaps yourself in under 10 minutes.

  • Contractor-Grade Durability: Made from premium anodized aluminum, it’s built to survive the rigors of a professional job site.

What Is the Plank Grabber?

Seasonal Flooring Gap

The Minnesota-tough solution for seasonal flooring gaps.

In Minnesota, our homes breathe. When the humidity drops and the heat kicks in, even the best hardwood floors begin to pull apart - it’s just the nature of living in the North.

But you don’t have to live with those unsightly, dust-collecting gaps until next summer.

  • Built for the "Minnesota Gap": Specifically designed to handle the dramatic expansion and contraction caused by our extreme climate.

  • No Hammer, No Damage: Close gaps in seconds without scuffing your finish or damaging your baseboards.

  • DIY Simplicity: If you can use a vacuum, you can use the Plank Grabber. It’s professional results without the professional price tag.

  • Save Your Knees: Forget crawling around with wood filler that’s just going to crack anyway. Fix the source of the problem, not just the symptom.

How to fix flooring gaps:

  1. Clean the Gap: Use a vacuum to remove dust and debris from the space between boards.

  2. Position the Tool: Place the Plank Grabber on the "wandering" board.

  3. Tap & Close: Use a rubber mallet on the tool’s strike point to effortlessly slide the board back into its original position.

    Pro Tip for Prior Lake Homeowners: To ensure a permanent fix, apply a drop of Floor-Fix Pro adhesive into the groove before closing the gap. This prevents the board from "walking" again when the seasons shift next year.
