My laminate floor has warped after a washing machine leak?

My laminate flooring began to warp after a very brief washing machine leak. Although the leak was soon fixed, the floor has continued to warp along the seams to form a slight "hill" - type ridge along the floor. The boards seem to be curling up at the edges. Anything I can do to fix this besides getting the lot replaced (which I can't afford)? Many thanks!

Replacing the wet area is you only resolution. Make sure you wick up the moisture and replace the suchion underneath

The MDF core of the laminate board has soaked up the water near the joints, this in turn has caused it to swell. There is nothing that be can be done to save the situation apart from replace the the damaged boards with new ones, or if you're lucky, pull up the floor and refit, using the damaged boards under furniture so that they will not be seen. If the whole floor is damaged, your washing machine leak was worse than your realised and you'll have to replace the lot. Try your home insurance..
