      s Hey dude, I don’t like negativity in my life and I’m sure Jeff doesn’t really want to hear your shade either. He has helped me, a 27-year-old new homeowner who didn’t even know how to hold a brush, remodel my room. My room looks fabulous and he does give great tips. You are also forgetting that he is in Canada and perhaps they don’t do things the exact same way as here in the States. Like have security strips? Additionally, if you don’t like his “fake” channel then why are you on his videos scoping out positive comments? I said what I said, this guy has helped me A LOT

When He worked a gone all day I would do what wanted done. Now he home all day and if I start a project in my time he is always up butt explaining how he would do it. 😵. I just give up at times. I have a hole in my bathroom wall caused from moisture. Been there for few years. Can't get him out of house to get it done.😠😵

    We did our kitchen with 24x12 vinyl tiles that installed exactly like that, the short end overlap snap into lock and the long sides tongue and groove. From Home D, was on clearance sale 5 years ago, never seen them again. 5 years later the floor still looks brand new and like you said the install was a breeze. Great video.

  • @xworkerbee
    @xworkerbee 3 года назад +52

    Pro Tip: If you're going to set your baseboards before laying your flooring, use a sample piece of your flooring together with whatever padding you will lay and set your baseboards at the finished flooring height. The resulting gap will give you the leeway for cutting around walls and other obstacles.

  • @chrismba777
    @chrismba777 3 года назад +1

    I love this stuff too; durable, waterproof and pretty; and I have used many different flooring mediums over the years; but I will say I have had more side-seam separation over time with soft core LVP than any other; and it's almost impossible to fix without tearing up slabs of the flooring. Make certain every piece is snapped together well, or if it is damaged during install, toss it out or cut out the damaged lip section.

    Once I start watching your videos I have a heck of a time getting away! lol Love your channel! We just did an addition to our home and used the click lock waterproof vinyl plank flooring throughout the whole house! Love the floor so far and is a breeze to clean! The addition is 26'x28' with Shaker platinum Grey Cabinets with 8' island and American Salt Quartz countertops . The whole room has 1" x 8" tongue and groove pine walls and cathedral ceilings with 2 coats of water based Minwax Poly.. We have 6" gimbal LED lights and much more! Anyway I like to do a lot of things myself when I can. We did hire out most of the work this time around but now I have a nice workshop in the cellar under the new addition to play. Keep up the good work!

    Just discovered this channel and I have to say, I never thought to look at vinyl planks. I was looking at the traditional hardwood laminate and it just looked to be a bit of a hassle to install but this looks to be much more straightforward where you don't need much more than what I already have. I also love those vents. Good price on the flooring too...a little less than half of what I had looked at last year for hardwood laminate. Now just need to figure out what color ;P

    Here's a DIY flooring tip. My wife and I installed eng. hardwood flooring on the stairs and second floor hallway. 125 yr old house the 2nd floor had an almost 2" sage in the middle. We did self leveling cement where the really bad spots were and thought I did great job. When install was complete, you could feel the odd spot where the floor was bouncy and this cannot be b/c this was installed as a floating floor (as per manuf., either floating or nailed). Here's the TIP: I used window and door foam (this is the medium expanding stuff so it remains very dense). I used painters tape, 2" square and drill 1/4' hole through floor (OMG), then insert the red tube and spray in foam until it comes out hole. Let dry, cut off excess. Use same 1/4' bit by hand and make small pit in foam at hole, fill with wood filler, stain. I dare you to find all the holes I made. :-)

    I installed a wooden floor of 8 by 4.5 meters some weeks ago. Incredible what a work. 2 liters of wood glue in total, and as soon as the glue touches the wood you have to finish the plank neatly within 10 minutes or you're screwed. I'm glad that it's finished. Only trim work left to do. I think i like real wood more than PVC or laminate though as it sticks less to bare feet.

    Jeff, I just did a thousand sq feet of loose lay LVP. We used carpet tape around the edges and a few stripes in the middle. Easy easy and looked great. The advantage of loose lay is that a damaged plank can just be lifted out and replaced in about ten seconds. Good distribution in Ontario, we used Aurra by Taiga.

    Hi Jeff - on the quarter round and covering the floor to paint note, we prefer to spray all trim laying down on bare subfloor, that was when we install it after the flooring goes down, all we have to do is fill nail holes and caulk. I’ve seen builders do it both ways about 50/50 but I agree with what your point that picking a matching profile does help if your going going to add a secondary trim!

Just will do the quarter round/base shoe last to finish.
