    Awesome video! Thanks for teaching me how to install a new vinyl floor in my bathroom. I had a leaking toilet flange, and the only way to properly repair it was to remove the existing vinyl floor and damaged sub floor, then replace the floor. I had never done any of the above before and was a bit overwhelmed. Watching your video really set my mind at ease and allowed me to do it myself with your knowledge. Very thorough video. Thank you very much!!

    I just laid vinyl flooring and got some glue on it and it dried. I used nail polish remover to remove the dried glue and it worked great and did not damage or discolor the vinyl. My little tip, that I thought I would share. I used contact cement to lay my vinyl.

    Thanks for the great video, I will be doing a bathroom floor similar to this one in a few days and this is an awesome refresher course!! Mine is a tear out and as you mentioned clean up before laying the new vinyl is key, as well as acclimating the new material to the house temp and humidity. Thanks again! Subscribed!

    So depending on the glue’s set time ive seen different ways to glue the vinyl. Some glues require the glue to get tacky first before laying the vinyl. I could see this working both ways. Just dont want it to slide or bubble up. Preparation is the key to a flat beautiful vinyl floor!

    Hello from Iceland. Here we always use a self leveling compound to skim coat the underlayment also. But we have noticed that if you use fiberglass thread and mixit into the compound it responds and flexes much better.

  • @dmitrikguajardo6006

    when skim coating use a larger trough. like a 12 inch long and spread backwards in east to west strokes but making the trough swirl to turn back but not leaving the floor.

  • @Maxid1
    @Maxid1 10 лет назад +3

    I've had some experience with the thinner perimeter glued sheet product. In a desert climate where it gets really hot and really cold, that will cause it to pucker and bubble up, even if the original installation laid flat. We had to go in and glue it all down.
    If you have a really fat dog you can drag him around on the floor to get the air bubbles out. They really seem to like that...

    Really nice install. I would have rolled the vinyl from the tub back toward the door to glue halfway and then from the doorway back but other than that great work with the knife and pretty speedy.
    I understand why he did it the way he did because he was worried bout' that one seam. Lol, I would hire Doc to do vinyl floors anyway.

    Hey Shannon,
    I'm currently remodeling my floors, we are going with a vinyl plank flooring (floating floors). Should I just use the same 3in1 underlayment/moisture barrier I would be using for other rooms, in the restroom as well? Or do I need to use a different type
    Thanks.

  • @gabrielevanoni5045
    @gabrielevanoni5045 7 лет назад

    Thank you for your video! Very nice - two questions though I couldn't figure out:
    1. What did you use for underlayment on top of plywood?
    2. Would you advise against installing a sheet vinyl 1/4 inch felt-backed directly on plywood?
    I am asking for a kitchen floor.
    Thanks!

  • @dmitrikguajardo6006
    @dmitrikguajardo6006 6 лет назад

    i came across some stuff called durhams rock hard wood putty. its a powder that requires a little water but dries pretty quick and would skim coat screws.

    We are installing vinyl flooring in a 5 ft bathroom. It is for a condo and the Association requires us to install a sound barrier pad. The bathroom currently has some old white ugly tile floor.
    Is it possible to glue the pad to the tile, and glue the vinyl to the pad? It will be a little thick, but it shouldnt be an issue with the toilet or door.
    The vinyl flooring will go in the bathroom area with the toilet and tub/shower.
