You have great communication skills. Very clear explanations. Thanks.
Thanks a lot!
Thanks for the video. I have recently installed a similar click flooring over old parquet flooring and the locks are breaking away, now I have to change it out for glue down. Glue down all the way for my projects.
Good luck! Please like and Subscribe!
The prep for glue or click should be the same. Just because glue down vinyl can bond to uneven substrate doesn't mean it will look good. Also, glue down vinyl is typically thinner so you see more imperfections due to telegraphing. The best product is actually 5mm loose lay vinyl. Most of these videos
are made by people that do not do flooring for a living.
You do sure a good job of being precise in your explanation. Thank you!!
Fantastic. I finally got the information I’ve been looking for. THANK YOU 🙏

Levelers are aways an option , transitionless floating floor install is Possible with planning, planning and focus.
For basements the flood possibility plus the replacement ease also ease of installation, I like.
Good stuff 100% agree. Wonder if you can glue it down to DMX underpayment.
Pretty sure they still expect a fairly flat floor with click plank lvt. On a reasonable subfloor it would be a heck of a compression force to snap like that when lying on a flat on the floor. Its like any job, preparation is key.
Just wanted to know where to order 5mm glue down planks. Thank you for your video!!
flex vinyl is way to go!love mine!all flooring is so uneven.
Great information. What are your thoughts about starting with a herringbone pattern. I am drawn to the thought it may hide unevenness even better than straight pattern glue down?
Thanks again for the great video!

You might be right, it will look nice for sure If you have a time. I like that pattern as well.
Can I use it on my porch?
Good video thanks just one question, theres two types of glue for vinyl planks Ive been told hard set hard and soft set which stay tacky which one do you prefer for wet areas like in the bathroom? Thank you.
I would rather use onw that does not harder entirely so you have the option to remove and replace damaged plank if you need to. You can use Mapei Ultrabond 373 or Roberts 2330 or Custom (forgot the name).

@@TheHandyNeighbor thanks for your reply
I heard, over a time Gluedown floor shrink and leave gaps especially sunny spots… any comment on that? Thanks…
It does shring and expand but it is not noticable. I installed it in several basements 5 mil, commercial space as well 5 and 2 mil and I never notice anything. If it does it is probably less than a mil. Probably depends of quality of the flooring as well. Other than that great easy maintenance stuff like a ceramic tile easy to maintenance.

Totally agreed. Click lvt is junk. I had a liquid screed laid across the ground floor of my house as i knew i wanted it totally flat. It is. I spent thousands on click lvt (premium product) im a 30 plus year builder, i have laidany many floors , click lvt is easily the worst flooring product ive ever had the misfortune of buying and laying. All mine after 6 months started to break in high traffic areas, afyer 2 years it happening everywhere. The product has a 30 year guarantee but who wants to take up a 100sqm floor again and relay new? AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!
What about some LVT with foam backing for sound insulation . Can you still glue it as well ?
Will peel an stick vinyl planks work the same on concrete as the glue down vinyl planks?
I am not sure, can not guarantee man.
what do you put on the glued floor when there are gaps?
What do you mean? Concrete chips before you install the floor? In that case you put thinset mortar before glue.

Would we include a vapor barrier in the basement for glue down vinyl flooring? Or is it better to just go straight onto the concrete?
Even you want I you can not put vapor barrier as you need to have solid surface to apply glue. Just glue it on concrete you will be fine.

A vapour barrier is a layer of plastic..... A vinyl floor is a layer of...... 😊
Thank-you for providing this excellent video. The builder painted the basement concrete floor so I'm wondering if there could be any issues with the adhesive because of this?

Can you glue down click vinyl? have a contractor proposing that but it seems to be counter intuitive based on what I am seeing out here
You could but I would not do it because click is hard to replace later.
What’s the name of that flooring? Also the color? It looks great!
I am not sure, It was small private seller here where I live. I think pretty much all the floors are made in China just packed in States or Canada.
I paid 2.20 CAD per square foor for 5 millimiter floor.
I do not remmember what was the color name as it was a while ago.
Thanks

Can I lay this glue down vinyl on top of ceramic tile?
Yes I am pretty much sure you can. I never tried but I would do it. This glue will stick to anything!

Do I need to fill the grout lines or will the glue fill in that space?
Probably just spread a glue all around. Give it a try in small area.
Take a look of my video how I did it.
So basically when use glue one, we need to cover the floor with glue first before install it??
Yes
@@TheHandyNeighbor does the glue will not dry first before we finish install it??
@@faizizzu1978 do area by area, it needs to be dry ang anyway
Take a look of my glue down video on my channel how to install it.

What about moisture barrier
There are some floor primers but I have never used it. Usually I go directly on concrete. Never had a problem with moisture. Glue itself will serve as a vapour barrier.
SPC is the best.
If, if, if…
Get the job the right way, level your subfloor and click system never will fail. Glue down floor always have an issue with the gaps in between the planks
So this guy does no prep and just deals with high spots and low spots lol
Yes DIY project no leveling needed if it is not too too crazy uneven. This is a basement, not a White House.
If people want to do prep they still can, if not, no harm at all.
What about some LVT with foam backing for sound insulation . Can you still glue it as well ?
I don’t think I would glue anything with preinstalled underlayment on it. You can try but I am affraind what if that foam padding start coming off over time. As well not sure how the gluw will react with foam. Never know if you don’t try. I would say keep it simple, and go on concrete directly with regular glue down plank.
