Shane found this okay to do but i sure struggled i just don t have the strength in my wrists.
What do i prep floor with for vinyl planks.
Last time we did this laying vinyl plank over concrete we scored the vinyl with a knife and a square then snapped it.
Tape a 3 foot square piece of scrap vinyl to the concrete with duct tape sealing the edges tight.
Test the floor for moisture.
Vinyl planks even come in a range of looks that mimic other materials like hardwood and stone.
Preparing the floor for installation of any flooring is the key to a great job especially when installing vinyl planks.
Luxury vinyl is also a relatively easy material to install making it attractive to diy minded home and business owners.
Born out of the diy generation of home improvement vinyl plank flooring is an affordable surrogate for traditional hardwood floors.
To prep the floors for the luxury vinyl planks our guys used two products to fill the cracks and smooth the cement slab foundation one is a crack filler the other a cement based patching compound to ensure the floors were level and smooth.
Leave the vinyl in place for 72 hours.
Luxury vinyl flooring ups the ante when it comes to both durability and style when compared to regular more traditional vinyl formulations.
