    Another method you can do, and I've learned this over the years to avoid "slivers" on one side or the other. Do an actual lay out for your flooring, same as you would for Hardie siding, to even out your cut sides. It may take extra time before starting but it does make for a better finish. Even though I have used this "sliver" method many times, and at times is unavoidable, but taking extra steps by measuring and lay out does help a lot. Great vid!!!!! 😉👍

    When I laid down mine 24 yrs ago, I almost lost my mind with this issue. This was a time when few to none You Tube Videos like these. I never finished Thanks to traumatic events in life. I did about 1200 sq. ft., & quickly found out how much this Condo was out of line 😂. It's time for everything to come out & re-do new. Love my oscillating tool.
    TX for the tip about the glue.

      @FixThisHouse  4 месяца назад +2

      I agree! But if you have this huge gap, caulking will look very bad, add the strip and then caulk 👍🏽😊

      @@FixThisHouse I think people are missing the point of what you meant by don't caulk it, you're saying don't caulk the big ass gap, not don't caulk or silicone at all.

    I have experienced vertical caps betweenfloor and baseboard. This method does nothing for that -- older homes.

  • @AlexAlex-oz7ym
    @AlexAlex-oz7ym 4 месяца назад

    Not caulking is a really silly tip. Any water spill will go behind the trim and flooring causing way more issues.
    A nice accurate caulk strip is a much easier and a more useful activity rather than cutting these tiny strips of the laminate.
