Can you hear the floor move on top of the tile w/o adhesion?
Back behind the tank for the toilet is always a tough area to paint!
Is there anything else you can use to cut them if you don't have the power tools?
a tablesaw is the best way to go.
Thanks for showing me I do not have your skills, patience, or capabilities. Also Thank you for demonstrating how it should be done. I will HAPPILY pay someone else for their expertise in installation and be grateful for a job well done.
I installed similar flooring over existing vinyl flooring: big mistake! Now, after 2 years, the planking is breaking because the underlying vinyl is collapsing causing dips and valleys. Will have to rip it all out, including the old vinyl and start over.
I have a projector in one room of my house, with a projector screen on the opposite wall. Did I paint behind that screen when I painted the room? Even I don't know at this point. Bet I didn't though. 🤣
i have one hiding behind a sectional that we forgot about until we moved the tv from that spot and of course behind the toilet tank
This isn't professional at all….It's half a$$ed at best!
Score from the back of the board it will save you so much headache. SCORE FROM BACK AND SNAP OVER KNEE TOP FACEING KNEE THEN BEND BACK IN OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND BOOM
Do you have to use any underlayment for tiles ?
Anyone knows where the plank flooring is from ??
I'm in the process of ripping out exact flooring that's less than 2 years old. Why? You feel every imperfection in your subflooring under this stuff. In our case, the previous owners lets their pets use one half of the house as their bathroom and tried to cover up subfloor damage. There were literal spots where you felt like you had stepped up or down on what should have been flat. We had to seal the old subfloor with Kilz Original + laminate a new layer of proper plywood to the existing damaged OSB subflooring. We're now putting down much stiffer and higher quality click-together laminate flooring made by Bourbon Street. We're one room in and I have to say that the effort has been worth it – the new Bourbon Street floors are a million times better feel on the foot and the new sub floor is perfectly level – no more sunken or raised spots! I would never invest in this cheap vinyl plank for any space other than a utility room. Even then, I probably would put real tile in.
See I done this four months ago and cutting them is a b…… 🤣🤷🏾♂️ But I got it done the floors look so beautiful I damn near kiss the floor
Did you mentioned what’s the software you used to accomplish the 3d model ?
Thank you for the video
awesome. it is really clean job. I would install vinyl plank flooring like it
I use a tape for everything he did on a computer all you need is a tape and your mind lol
Best way to cut, put your square and run your blade slowly 3-4 times with pressure, put it on your knee pad and hit. Do it all day, haven’t had a rough cut in forever
For anyone new to flooring, especially this material, get yourself a chop saw.
