    This looks way better than when I hired professional carpet installers to do. I had to rip it out when I changed my bathroom floor. Looks like something I can do and achieve a way better look than what I was originally given.

    I'll have to get one. I had to pull the carpet back and expose the tack strips so I could repair termite damage on the load bearing walls. Now I'm finishing up I'll need to stretch the carpet back and put in the baseboard molding. There's no transition strip between the tile bathroom floor and master bedroom.

    Thanks you for the video. I have installed many doorways with latex.
    With latex is the way to go!
    I think it is a little quicker to latex in the trough before stretching the carpet onto the tack strip.
    Thanks

      I usually use my carpet trimmer to cut the carpet to the tile so I have never thought about that. I never lay text first because I do not want to get my trimmer in it. I cut it with my knife this time for the demonstration so it definitely would have been faster to do latex first while cutting it this way

    Thanks for sharing. Can I just ask, if I needed to bring my wood floor up as the tiling finished 2 inches above the current wood floor boards (don't ask me what happened), how much lower than the finish of the tile would the wood floor need to be brought up to create a good transition please?

  • @stevehamman4465

    I heard that when people make comments on a video, it helps your channel? So here's a comment, I always double strip in front of tile and most transitions! All power walls also. Hook up and tucking go much smoother! I heard Home Depot was at 6.50 yrs in the Cleveland Ohio area? And there months behind on hard surfaces, that they don't want to pay diddly for! Good day sir.

    • @FloorsbySouthernboys
      @FloorsbySouthernboys  Рік тому

      Yes, it does help, I have been using tri tac all of my jobs for a while now, so I don’t blame you for the double strip. This text strip was already in stone and the gentleman who owns the property wanted out as cheap as possible so I reused it. I rarely rarely reuse someone else’s tack strip. But on this job I chose to.

My philosophy is (I don’t do carpet installing full time, so this applies to my life generally speaking): It’s not as much the job that your are doing; it’s YOU that you are leaving behind. Great job modeling the stellar YOU that you are leaving behind.
