    This is great. Had tile put down in my master bathroom and we have a large jacuzzi tub and when they demo-ed the old tile, they removed the trim around the bottom of the tub and instead of keepingi it, they threw it away. They don't know what to do now and this is an excellent solution. Going to be ordering this thx! Just need to decide if I should get white or almond. The tub is white, but the surrounding material, the outer shell so to speak, is ivory or off white. Thx for the video!

    Good info. My old quarter round was nailed into the floor (over linoleum) and I was going to do the same when putting it back over vinyl plank. I'm not sure how much these planks will move as they are the stick-on kind, but after watching this video, I think I'll just run a heavy bead of silicone and use it to glue the quarter round down. If that doesn't hold, I'll search for the product in this video. Thanks for the info!

    question: i have enclosed patio 14 x 8. i am going to lay down my panels out there. i have metal box about 1/2 high in height around the perimeter of this location.
    you said not to put silicone caulking within 1/4 space perimeter because prevents expanding contracting. to back i would have like to done that. do you have any suggestions
    what should be done to cover the gap since you said not to caulk the perimeter 1/4 space.
    need some inexpensive method because the stuff you used appears expensive. and my planks already are going to be expensive.

  • @lillithjones993
    @lillithjones993 Год назад

    Can you stick it to the floor and tub if you have sheet vinyl? I have almost a 1 inch gap on one side. Also, I can’t decide if I should put the shim under the sheet vinyl glue it down to the floor at the point where the tub needs to be raised and then that would push the sheet vinyl up under the tub so the gap wouldn’t look so big but II still want to cover it, and then there’s the other option of just glue it to the bottom of the tub that sits on top of the sheet vinyl that would make it more easy to detach it if I need to. I would still have about an inch gap that needs to be covered.

  • @jamesadmanis
    @jamesadmanis 2 года назад +2

    So, you attach it to the tub? What keeps the water from seeping under the rubber piece? Do you use caulk somewhere?

  • @jameshaydel4203
    @jameshaydel4203 3 года назад +6

    I see water going under the 1/4 round. Maybe a flush to the floor bead between the tub and flooring before the quarter round goes down. Excellent solution and product you presented. Thank you for the video.

    glad to watch video. the planks will expand. i get that, thus reason for keep gap of 1/4 between walls and planks. question: ?? if you glue corner round to the plank, the corner round goes up against tub.
    won't this glued corner round(butt up against the tub) to the plank beneath it prevent the planks from contracting and expanding as needed??

    Hi Ruben.
    Wish you were here in Fl so I could hire you to do my floors! I have unfinished plywood stairs and got self stick vinyl planks to put down. The stairs do not get lots of traffic. No kids running around. Several guys at various Home Depot stores said the stick is strong and i don't need to put any xtra glue. I was gonna add some liquid nails. They also said no need to put anything down first as a prep. Just stick the tils down. This does not sound right. The box of vinyl says to use a floor primer on wood. ? What do you suggest? Thank you so much.

  • @kbustaar
    @kbustaar Год назад +1

    I'm thing that just using silicone to seal gap is good. Silicone stretches, and easy to monitor if exposed. If silicone does not do the job, ca always add this strip later..

  • @JayZoop

    1.) would you use the quarter round if the rest of the bathroom does not have quarter round? 2.) Isn’t an 1/8 inch gap along the tub ok in a smaller bathroom, or where the flooring is not connected to rest of house?

      @FloorsbySouthernboys  4 года назад +1
