Exactly what I wanted and needed out of a video for engineered hardwood install. Thank you.
43 minutes video! It's Christmas morning! 🤣
Haha! Enjoy and thanks for watching as always :)
Am I having de javu? I remember this video from a few years ago just edited a bit differently. Anyways. Great video. I watched the whole thing again. Great flooring choice and perfect installation. Thanks again Brett!
Thanks so much for mentioning that Roger and YES you are 100% correct. This is an old video series but it was broken up into three different videos and I wanted to repurpose it to be one cohesive video structure so all these valuable tips are in one video. FULL disclosure to be honest with the BYOT audience is that I'm having some difficulty with a current project that is taking longer then expected to complete. Don't want too many weeks to go by without a post so I occasionally repurpose old videos that deserve a re-edit in order to make a more cohesive video structure like this one for larger projects. Hope that makes sense and thanks so much for watching and all the support.
@@BYOTools Good thinking. I remember now the 3 parts and it worked well making one video combining them all. Well done and I love watching them all. And your voice is NOT annoying!😁👍
What happens if you were to have floated the floor instead of gluing?
Great work as usual, love it. Thanks for sharing your skills. You make my day.
LOVE hearing that and thanks so much for watching and all the support Nigel.
Great video!! Very informative and well paced.
Thanks so much for watching and all the support. Keepup the great work on your channel as well.
This is great timing. I have installed vinyl plank before but didn't really know how to install wood flooring on a concrete slab. Thanks for another great video!
Amazing to hear. Thanks so much for watching and hope the video helps.
looks awesome!! And your videos are so enjoyable to watch :)
Thanks so much for all the support and kind words. Keep up the great restorations on your channel.
WOW!!! This is an amazing job! It looks beautiful and so well done. Congrats!
Truly appricate the kind words and all the support.
Nice job

Hey! I live in Long Branch, NJ and was impressed with your work. In 2023, I founded my sand and install flooring company, IAC - American Floor, and am seeking advice on how to expand my business and find more job opportunities. I am open to any suggestions or guidance you can offer. Thanks in advance!
Would you glue and staple 1"x12"x16' pine tg on wood subfloor over crawalspace or vapor barrier w staples? Great work!
Where did you buy this material?
He got it free.. This is an AD....
here's a link to the exact product I used on this project: fdwflooring.com/product/antique-canyon/
Yes they are the sponsor of the video but did you watch and learn anything? You can utilize this video when installing many different engineered hardwood flooring products out there. Don't discount FDW for actually supporting creators. Thanks for watching.
🙏👏👍💪
Thanks for always being there and watching Alain.
I've never heard someone call baseboards, "wall base" before.
Where do you live? pretty common where I live.
@@BYOTools upstate NY, but I also lived in TN and only ever heard baseboard. Googling wall base though brings up a totally different style of trim, that I kind of like.
omg it's the "heighth" guy again lol
I am about to be 40 and just found out that isn't a word lol..
I have two damaged fingers that ached with every shot of the table saw used without a push stick. Please be careful, complacency can bite back.
100% agree and must be extremely careful when cutting boards on a table saw. Thanks for watching and mentioning this.
Aria vents will burn out your furnace fan motor; you will not get proper CFM without too much pressure. They look good but they are no good for HVAC systems edit: they know go by Fittes
Thanks for mentioning that. Has there been a comparison test that can be referenced?
@@BYOToolsLet me preface that I'm not an HVAC guy, first youtube video that I found with analysis was ua-cam.com/video/1hfmbLiL0i4/v-deo.html. If your system was designed from the ground up with it in mind, maybe it'd be fine? They look absolutely phenomenal, but for my own house, I had to go a different route.

Per manufacturer and the wood flooring association, any engineered floor has to be glued down and stapled if it's over 5" wide, using the glue assist meathod or full glue down...
Not sure you need to glue if you are laying a "floating floor". Also considering this chap does not allow for expansion, he is demonstrating a total lack of knowledge.
@@stewartgranger7674 pretty sure most if not all manufacturers say you can not float a wide plank enginerered floor.
You use words like "exactly", "perfectly", "extremely", and "very" wayyyy too often, you should try to cut down on them
