Nice job.
This was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Stefani!
I will be doing this to my room this is really a really beautiful idea❣😍
So I can’t leave all my furniture in the room as well as carpet and paint around it? (Sar )
Good job its more confortable to work in barefoot
This is awesome, i was just thinking of painting our concrete floors since the plastic carpet is not looking good anymore, and started browsing via youtube hoping to find an idea…and I was so pumped to apply your idea to ours. Thanks for sharing 😊
Can you come do this in my living room????
Can you help with me
Thank you i love and learn more but what kind of paint to use, pls rfly
What paint did you use?
So Satisfying- I Hate Carpet and wish i could get rid of mine
Awesome job!
Smashed that red sub button to grey😜👍
Wow! Great job!
How would you clean the floors with this ?
how long did this take, start to finish?
I don’t like carpets either….they are dust/dirt collectors….. not good.
Yay I’m am a carpet hater also and have done similar projects. Good job.
Has any of it started to chip up, especially where the chair rolls on it?
how many hours did it take for the whole job and how much did the sealers and paint cost? thanks
This looks amazing. Mine came out horrible because I got bad advice and was sold the wrong product. I’m hoping to try again.
i m from india
thanks u
Stefani – This video is terrific. I’m planning a project of my own. In hindsight, do you regret not using a sealer?
Your not crazy. Carpet is so disgusting. It traps moisture and makes your house smell funky.
What is the name of this paint colour?
You did a wonderful job on your floor and on the video, thanks. Being a solid color, does this floor show every speck of dirt? Are you a slave to keeping it looking nice? Or does the color you chose tend to hide dirt?
Very cool! What is the color on the walls as well?
This is brilliant! I’m curious to know how its holding up. I have the ugliest tile in our kitchen, dining and living room (came with the house) that I would love to remove, and tile/wood isn’t in the budget. This would be perfect for that!
This is such a great help, thank you so much for taking the time . Luigi
I’m super glad I didn’t go with carpet now it was going to set me back £1500+ for 2 rooms and a small hallway 😒 I’m definitely trying this
Stephanie, what size room is your office, is it still holding up under foot traffic, rolling office chairs etc. what was your final cost?
Thanks for the video! Is there no need to etch before painting?
And how durable is it? Rolling around on it with your office chair is wearing it away isn’t it? It’s only paint after all…
Great job, I’m going to do the same thing to my bedroom 🙂
Im thinking about painting my concrete basement floors. I didn’t see the brand of that paint. Can u tell me the brand u used and any suggestions as far as painting a medium traffic area basement. I have concrete basement walls as well I want to paint as an alternative to drywall any tips?
I’m curious how well this has held up?
Walking on hard concrete will eventually give you foot paint .
you use a box and a plastic bag as your paint tray what a great idea i’ll be doing that next time i paint ..👌👍🏼😊tnx..
Hi what paint is this.
Thank you
You can use a shovel to lift the tac strip. Drag the end along the floor toward the strip. They pop right up. Then use the claw end of the hammer to remove the leftover nails. Took me about half an hour for a 250 ft. sq. space.
Great job I also loved the comforter case
Just beautiful. Thank you. Great job. I’m very impressed.
The end result looks great. Well done! The 12-step process is very helpful along with your timelapse video.
Awesome video I’ll definitely be doing this but for my laundry room though. Thanks so much keep the videos coming 🏡🏡🏡🏡
Thank you soo much
Hey Stefani! Thanks for this awesome tutorial, and your floors look great. I’m gearing up to paint a whole basement floor in about 5 rooms instead of going for carpet/wood floor install, and I’ve watched this video a few times! I am curious how the Behr paint has held up for you almost a year later?
Great instructional video! Thank you.
Would love to go home with stefani
Thank you so much for this video 🙏, very detailed and helpful though you male it seems so easy I’ll definitely end up in a mess 😅
