LOVING your channel!
Beside the wall mounted tv lol
Curious if you laid that over a tile floor, and why no underlayment was used?
Great compact video, no yawning moments like some where we wait for the presenter to go off and search where he left his pencil (LOL). Great point on ensuring no super thin lengths as the last course and your video showed us how to do the transition piece.
Can I do this over an old carpet? Why an old carpet? Because it’s an addition al layer and I want to add layers on my floor to block out my noisy rude neighbor downstairs. I have MLV in one are of the apt, and am looking to add another layer, but am undecided between a thicker carpet with acoustic underlayment plus one more layer of MLV; or MLV, Quietwalk acoustic underlayment and either a floating floor or vinyl (or hardwood) planking. Any suggestions, or links would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. And thank you for making this!! Stay safe!
Ya all this BS about leave it to the pro’s is a bunch of horse pucky…………..
Thank you
cool
Now I just need a shop 🤔
Behind my fridge and oven. Repainted my kitchen and never moved any of the big appliances.
Unpainted wall hiding behind the stove and refrigerator. Laying news floors in my house soon.
I just had my house done with that exact same color
Its a lot of work
I had a guy do it that knew how to install and it looks good
You did a great job but I’m still intimidated. I want to put this in all of my bathrooms. In fact I saw a marble top vanity today that will go great with it. However, I don’t feel confident about doing it by myself. I think I’ll just buy the flooring and have someone else install it.
My basement is concrete.. now if I use this vinyl plank do I still need Moisture Barrier ?
Behind the toilet tank 😂
I like this a lot because you are showing the obstacles and how to overcome them. I’m subbing you have great content
behind my sisters bed there is no paint. we are renovating the room and were doing the floor so we took away the bed
Any more ads you wanna mention before I finish this video? Seen about 6 so far…
We are thinking of using vinyl plank flooring over our tile in the kitchen. Our concern is that the floor will be raised and we wont have a very good transition from kitchen to a wood floor family room. Can anyone tell me if this would be an issue and how to fix it so we don’t constantly trip where the transition is?
Super easy, barely and inconvenience.
How many hours did it take for you to complete the floor & baseboards?
30 years ago I left the area behind the headboard/wall unit in the master bedroom unpainted.
what kind of nail gun was that? frame, brad ect?
Watch my new youtube video we all live on floors.
Had to leave couldn’t sit through that the sponsor ad, lost a subscriber
Got a job coming up, I appreciate the help bud.. 👍👍👍
Planning to do this in concrete, would you recommend gluing it down or it will hold just like that?
Why would you cover that great looking ceramic tile up with that cheap looking crap vinyl? Do you have arthritis?
Key words & the most Important step:
START FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ROOM, or you will quickly have broken board edges 😄😄😄
The product looks nice and will be easy to repair and replace small sections, BUT, it is laid down in a ‘water-room’ … so what happens when the inevitable spill of a gallon or more happens? Worse yet suppose a ‘renter’ flooded the floor and just sopped up the excess surface moisture leaving the fluids under the vinyl boards to ‘fester’? Or years of mopping along the floor boards? Not finished till caulked like a bathroom …?
I want to say I can do this.. but im going to be realistic and pay some1
This video is a perfect reason to hire someone lol I’m exhausted just after a few minutes watching 😂
Unpainted wall behind the toilet
Did you use just normal saw blades, not laminate specific ones?
I’m just asking nothing personal. But why do they always want us to subscribe why can we just watch the video just saying 🤣😆
This is very clever
This is great, if you want to spend about a $1000 on additional supplies. I might as well pay a professional do it.
We have a kitchen and living room out in a room, but how does it work with vinyl in the living room,
is there anyone who uses it in there ?
where there are some heavy furniture chairs and tables,
and will they make recessesor marks in the vinyl while moving around if there is Floor Furniture Protection Pads below.
Great detail and exactly what I needed. Thanks
Thank u for your videos have a question i have a little project in my house i want to install this kind of flooring in my bathroom its the first time i gonna do this so in the bathroom i have a tub toilet and a little sink so question where i should start ? Along the tub? Lol i know it sounds crazy but i just want to do it the best i can thNk u
Helped me big time. Thank you
I watched the first 10 secs and almost decided to do it myself. I am glad that I did watch 3 mins longer…
Lol there is so much I woulda done different to make the job x10 easier with use of way less tools. But that’s all tricks learned with with experience. Good for beginners to understand the bigger picture though
Unpainted wall Behind the fridge, hehe
Do you have to worry about water getting underneath? Does it need sealing?
Lam over tile…. no.
Just wondering, the stone floor looked pretty good to me. Why change it up?
Thank you for the video. First timer here and getting ready to do my whole house. Wish me luck.
Beginner friendly, huh?…I would hate to see what a professional level is like…
Gonna try to tackle the guest bedrooms this year, hopefully it goes smoothly!
