    At the beginning you should measure he entire width so that you know how many planks are needed. The important reason is to divide the last plank so that you do not end up with a thin plank of one side . Starting the floor as shown COULD leave a very narrow strip of plank on the opposite side.

    Also for the people commenting thinking this is cheap bull crap you are very wrong. This is mostly a commercial wear layer product and has a lot of advantages over floating vinyl plank. First off with the right proof it’s truly water proof. Sure floating is too but if you have a flood you going to have water under your floor and will be ripping it up. Second of all you can repair a single piece of the flooring as easy as a homeowner doing it themselves. Homeowner would have to take up half their floor to reach damaged of a floating floor. Just because a product is thinner means absolutely nothing. Your finish wear layer is all the importance. And I’ve seen 20 mil glue down outlet 12 mil floating floors all day.

    I'm pretty sure I saw these guys opening only one box of vinyl at a time. That's just wrong. Most LVT/LVP manufacturers recommend opening 4 to 6 boxes at a time and mixing them as you install. Why? In case of color variations from box to box, the colors will be distributed over the entire job. Also, keep in mind that LVT and LVP have repeating patterns. If you're not paying attention, you can wind up with the identical pattern on adjacent planks and that just looks BAAAD.

    • @techhobbies9292
      @techhobbies9292 9 лет назад +2

      It depends on the subfloor, humidity and temperature. In this video I had to wait 2 hours for it to become tacky and then I began to install. Most adhesives recommend not to let it sit over 12hrs, though I have even done it up to 24hrs. Hope that answers your question!

We have experience in laying the floor down from past homes but we always take out the linoleum and were just curious if we could save a step.

    Thanks for the video, simplifies the process. If an underlayer (padding) was added, that, I assume goes under the glue?

    • @techhobbies9292
      @techhobbies9292 6 лет назад +1

      Personally would not recommend using padding with glue.

      there are products and pads, that are glued to the subfloor. then the flooring is glued on top of the pad.

      How do I go about laying these on floorboards? A plywood layer to even the floor out? What about joins in the plywood do they need to be taped?

    • @techhobbies9292
      @techhobbies9292 4 года назад

      Yeah there is but almost no point of using unless you are on a second floor and want some sound suppression.

      You can use a leveling compound that specificity bonds to wood or use a belt sander to flatten out all the joint areas.

    Hello I do not want to use glue because it is rental property.
    Can I use strong double tape to stick them to floor?
    What do you think?

    • @techhobbies9292
      @techhobbies9292 4 года назад +1

      I wouldn’t recommend it. You can maybe try a test portion and see how it holds up but I would guess in the long run, with temperature changes, the tape will loose its strength.

    • @techhobbies9292
      @techhobbies9292 3 года назад

      You should not be installing on fresh glue. The glue needs to become tacky before installation.

    • @techhobbies9292
      @techhobbies9292 4 года назад +1

      Rodan Danner
      Any vinyl glue from your local hardware should work. The time for it to become tacky all depends on the weather and surface. Cold weather and over plywood will usually dry slower.

    Do you butt it right up to the wall or do you need space between the wall and the vinyl

      If you have something that will cover up the space(like vinyl base) then no, otherwise butt it up.
