Thinking about updating your flooring with LVT? Don't make a move without checking out these planning and installation tips and tricks from Certified Master Installer, Robert Varden.
When you start cutting around door jambs, closets, hallways etc etc you're in for quite a surprise. You will not be able to do those type of cuts and you will end up hiring a professional to take over the job. Even if you have the proper tools to make the cuts, it's installing those cuts that becomes very difficult. I've installed hundreds of laminate floors and this new Rigid core vinyl is incredibly difficult. Even if your room is square and you have no door jambs to cut around it is still quite the task. I'm just being honest with you and letting you know what you're in for. I mean if you're installing 10 square feet while standing up like that guy did I imagine that would be pretty easy...
Really? How about under the Kitchen appliances, like th BUILT IN BOSCH DISHWASHER so the DW can be pulled out if it needs repaired? How to fit UNDER the door jams? Under the "hollow core" doors, or the kitchen cabinets? All this over hard porcelain tile that is perfect!
My floors were damaged by Hurricane Ian. The slab shows 75-80% moisture after using a dehumidifier. when can I store LVT for acclimation and eventual installation on the plastic sheet?
