I own a hardwood floor company, installation and refinishing but I also install laminate/LVT floors and I promise you, while he did deliver a good end result, he made it look and sound far more complicated than it really is. While you do need a basic working knowledge of a tape measure, a saw and a speed square, installing this stuff is really not that difficult. Even my first time installing it I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was. Don't be discouraged by all the layout programming and planning he did and just give it a shot, you'll be pleasantly surprised!

@adamgiansiracusa5068 4 года назад

I just did this same job, using the same material, and you are absolutely right. I love how he starts out by saying he is just a do-it-yourselfer, then proceeds to pull out every pro tool including the use of a fully equipped "shop". Most people don't have all of this stuff. It is faster if you all the right tools though.

Only needed a pencil, a measuring tape, a sharp utility knife and a hand roller to set the seams. I used vinyl plank flooring with the glue edge.

I want to thank you so so much! I was struggling putting down vinyl plank flooring for the first time. 😫 I was following the box directions and had had to pull up the about 8 rows I'd done twice because the rows kept coming loose! Anyway, watched both of your videos and the instruction to fit the long side first and then tap in the short side made a world of difference. Not sure why the box says to do it the other way, but thank you for saving my knees and my sanity!

@lindayates7032 3 года назад

The easy way to avoid having a tiny strip at the far side of your wall (a big no-no) is to measure the floor and divide the width by the width of the plank. If the remainder is less than 2”, you need to do as he did and take a couple of inches off the first plank so your last plank will be wider. Same thing with the length. If the remainder is less than 6”, take enough off the first plank so that the last plank will be at least 6” long. You don’t need a computer program for this.

@trumpking4874 Год назад

Actually if u divide the width of room by plank width and the remainder is 2 (just an example) and the 2 to the width of the planks and divide that by 2 and u will get the dimension u should rip the first piece down to and the last row will be the exact same width. Say your remainder is 2 and your planks are 7” 7+2=9. 9 divided by 2=4.5 so cut your first row down to 4.5 and your last row will also be 4.5. Gives it uniformity

@theprideofpiquamarchingban8177 2 года назад

I see you switched from scoring on the back side of the pieces to scoring on the finish side. I was going g to suggest that as it makes it less likely to damage the the finished side edges. Great job....a multipurpose tool is great for some of the difficult cut areas that are hard to cut with a carpet knife or a table saw as well....keep up the great videos. Wish your videos were out when I learned ...it would have saved me a lot of trial and error. On a side not for others....if you can take out the baseboards easily enough it is alot easier than cutting angled on and putting in new quarter round and finishes up alot easier as well.

I really learned some nice tricks watching your video. I made many mistakes on my first floor and not as many on the second. This will definitely help me make none here on out. One thing I learned on my own: be sure to get all your flooring for a room with the same lot number. I had a lot of problems getting the planks to match up with no gaps due to using three different lot numbers. Learning as I go..

The biggest error is installing it over a perfectly good solid tile floor. Hear me out. I began installing the flooring over my existing tile floor. I know it looks good but I questioned the quality of the style. After laying a few planks I walked on it. Back and forth for 15 minutes. I didn’t rush installing the plank flooring, and I didn’t rush my judgement on the flooring quality. After pondering I not only decided not to install it but thanked the heaven above that I paused and thought it over with passion. My opinion after thinking it through was that the new floor looks really nice. But it ends there. I didn’t like the tapping sound where uneven planks tapped the tile. I also didn’t like the hollow sound. And lastly I didn’t like the noise it made when dragging you foot across it. Regardless if you are wearing your shoes or simply socks. Instead of updating the floor I updated the rest of the bathroom in a way that complimented the floor. His laundry room floor is not outdated enough that it would be impossible to work with. He could have done a color change, perhaps a faux accent wall and some nice decorations with improved lighting. All in effort to have a solid floor underfoot. My 2 cents. What I mean is not to criticize him. I am passing on to anyone thinking about doing this should question deeply if you are willing to install a floor that looks great but has the risk of feeling like a floor in a trailer home vs a solid floor that tile offers.

@doesntmatterwhatthenameis 2 года назад

Always start from an outside wall if available they are the straightest typically. Scoring and snapping works on long cuts, you just have to apply a lot of pressure for a clean break and start at an end work your way down. Also would recommend Olfa for just about any cutting purpose for floors, utility knife screams beginner. The spacing you left as well more than likely will never be necessary. Only have to leave big gaps for long runs most commonly around 20ft. To explain simply every board has the possibility of expanding 1/16 maybe 1/32 multiplied by how many rows you are doing can lead to binding and warping. A laundry room is to small to experience that in all likelihood. As well you are doing a plastic composite board, doesn’t expand like a 1/2inch laminate or really any sort of wood product.

Great video. I use the score and snap method for my cross cuts and depending on tool availability use a jigsaw or circular saw for rips. The most versatile tool I've found for making all cuts, especially jambs and mouldings is an oscillating too. (Ridgid JobMax for Fein Multimaster, i.e.) I use that to make all of my complex cuts around obstacles as well as trimming door casings and jambs. As far as keeping the pattern random, I like to finish a row and start with my scrap on the next row. (provided it doesn't place my joints too close together, typically 6-8" difference is manufacturer spec, depending on the product.) Keep up the good work!

My thoughts exactly! This is one of those, "Do not try this at home, unless you're a professional videos!"

Words cannot express my deep appreciation for you today, but I'm hella grateful. I'm afraid to walk around here because the floor might eat me, & not in a fun, sexy way. 😂

Appreciate the Super Thanks!

I did my whole house, easy, just remember to give the knees a rest for a few days in between. I also used gold backed laminate floor insulation underneath. 👍🇬🇧

That was fantastic. Will be watching this ten times before installing the floors in my house 👍🏻

I've just completed a pricing for my bed/bathroom and realized they are trying to get over on me by up-charging. After watching this, to hell with them. I'm going to do this on my own. Thanks bro!

Fantastic job doing the video, no BS, just fast quick job explaining the job at hand!! 1000 up votes!

@scottsenjo7607 2 года назад

Excellent video. Excellent work! I just laid down a kitchen. Personally, I disliked working with the planks. FAR TOO MUCH hammering for every single plank. I’d rather work with thinset, tiles, spacers, and grout. The tile you covered up looked fine. I’d have kept the tiles.

Well done sir! Remember this power tool is part of the project! Makes your job petty easy and make you feel good 👍!! Thanks for the tip..

NERD OUT!! I have been known to make models of furniture in order to rearrange a room. I will definitely be making one for my floors reno 😄

Very professional video. You focused on the task at hand, not on you. Your audio delivery was as clean and concise as the work performed. Well done!

Great vid. Never painted behind a large hamper in a laundry room. Years later it broke and I could not locatei a similar size and I also could not match the color. I ended up painting the entire room a different color. I also never ended up installing baseboard or quarterround in my daughters bedroom behind her bed and dresser on the same wall. Ran out of time and money. When we had water damage the appraiser just laughed !

Oscillating multi-tool is great for undercutting door jams and trimming flooring where it goes under the jams as well.

Never tried it. Ut I Willson know how mine went. SORTA?

@sweatervestfest405 4 года назад

thank you for not using the same length starters every other time. I hate when people do that and you have a consistent line all the way across the floor. Good times bro

@luismejia5448 4 года назад

Haha I did that with hard wood and didn’t notice till I was done 😂 which is exactly why I’m here now!

@williamchenoweth8075 2 года назад

I usually pull measurements on the floor chalk some lines to make sure everything is going to line up for that room and going down any hallways and then I just contact cement the first run down that usually prevents anything from moving
