Hey Great Video !!! Thanks !! No heavy Roller of course common sense you vn apply as much pressure with the broom.. Ball the glue makers videos show you should roll the glue with a foam roller but looks like you have no probs not doing and I presume the trowel notches dont show through?
I just had someone install vinyl sheet flooring. There appeared lots of bubbles ans he told me not to worry as the glue will contract, but he said the vinyl waa very poor quality and thin. I checked online and it said thin vinyl needs rolling but not thick....so I rolled it hard with a tube of silicone and now I think I might have f*kd it! Theres one area where there is a lot of gather and it wont stick down. Will it now ripple and not be even? Any way to get rid of the gather or do I need it pulled up and done again?
Great vid. My issue is my linoleum has not been stored well. Now that I'm prefitting it there are many lumps. How do I go about getting it flattened out when I glue it down? Any help is appreciated..
i have 30 years of flooring experience and i have never laid any sheet material in adhesive that had been left you get no transfer on the back of the material, what adhesive are you using not f. ball f44
Hi, my Antelope / Nordic Dove vinyl was installed with the colour flooring company adhesive but there are small bubbles/ it's not completely smooth. I don't know if the glue was dry before laying it down and I don't know if a broom was used rather than a roller. Is there anything we can do now to fix it?
Fuck man if your getting clean glue lines with your pace my hats off to you. I had one guy try to tell me only to glue is straight horizontal paths incase the glue lines showed through. I told him if he ever had that problem he needs to step his trowel notch down a size.
I have a question about when edges overlap in between two pieces not at the edges of the room. Do you cut at the small like one inch overlap so it looks perfectly straight at the edges. I think taking away extra is possible but not having it to take away is a problem though. Thank you very much.
When gluing the sheet vinyl to the subfloor how close should you get to the walls with the adhesive? If not would is the likelihood the vinyl will be torn or damaged
Need advice/help, which glue to use on loose edge I'm disabled and had a wetroom built aboult 4 years ago and vinyl flooring put down edges are rolled up the wall about 4 inchs then the walls are tiled from that point up In the actuall shower area have noticed about 3 inches of the flooring has come unglued from wall where it meets the tiles it's on a straight bit of wall What's the best way of regluing and what glue to use Thanks in advance for any help
@The Colour Flooring Company Hi unfortunately not, not to sure who the builders used to install the flooring It's about ae to 4 inch section that is unglued, can pull the flooring away from the wall enough to squeeze a finger in the gap. I was an electro mechanical engineer so am happy tackling most jobs, or at least talking / supervising my lad on doing what I can't do. Don't need a huge quantity as it's just a small section needs glue. But not sure which type of glue to use, also would it be advisable to preheat the pacth with say hair dryer to make the vinyl abit more plyable. Any advise would be greatly appreciated
Boston George they used the wrong glue. when you say mine. you do mean pvc vinyl right? because there's all kinds of types and each type takes a certain type of glue
From the very start, I was waiting for you to show how you will cut the adjoining overlaps between the vinyl sheets. but you did not. If you could answer here, it will be nice. Plus. How are these long sheets better than smaller pieces of vinyl?
i messed up once and layed this floor on wet glue and i had to keep going back to pop air bubbles and reroll the floor to get rid of bubbles. i was so mad
I've been in this business for almost 50 years and have never ever used a spreader like that to spread adhesive .. That tool he's using is ridiculous but this is coming from the UK
@@jobe69 -It's OK, we have trowels with handles here in the UK too, lol. The trowel he's using is actually recommended for wood and concrete flooring (he's gluing concrete flooring in this vlog)
Yeah this type is not ideal for a garage unless you park no car inside, I would highly recommend interlocking garage tiles (the ones most dealerships use inside there “Bay Area after purchasing a new car”)
