    I can't remember if I've commented about this before, but I really appreciate how respectful you are about the "before" version of whatever you're about to renovate. I cringe when some YTer moves into a new house and spends ages talking about how terrible some room is, making a choice to trash talk rather than kindly acknowledge that it's time for a fresh start to the cycle of new-to-old. You've always been honest about the flaws that are now present, without being mean about what was once someone's dream powder room/kitchen/etc. Pairing this with your obvious skill at doing the work, and your sense of humor -- I really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you.

    I just finished remodeling my full bath and working in that small space was a nightmare but I'm 63 but the worst part was the laminate flooring. It moved around as I was installing it and it unsnapped and I tried to shoot some brads in hidden places but they wouldn't penetrate. My transition strip had a metal channel to screw down but the trim wouldn't snap into place so I used double sided tape. The little woman worked hard resurfacing the tub and tiles and it looks nice and new. All new hardware and brass for the tub faucets...did I mention the flooring sucks? Nice job..

    @galady8632 3 місяці тому

    Looks great!! Definitely a well-deserved update. It's clean and crisp. After seeing the buckled original laminate flooring by the toilet I understand why I was told I should avoid using it anywhere there's a water source. I noticed you didn't utilize underlayment. I hear so many mixed stories. Can you explain your thoughts? I want to eliminate carpet in the house I purchase and red oak floors are w-a-y out of my budget. (I hope to do the floors prior to moving any furniture. So much easier for everyone. ) Laminate makes sense but I do not like the hollow sound when walking on it wearing hard soled shoes. It can be very confusing. I would happily watch your children while you worked on my home - although there's quite a distance issue.

    • @TheFixerHomeRepair
      @TheFixerHomeRepair  3 місяці тому +2

      Hey!! So the floor i installed was a 100% waterproof LVP. It is different than laminate. It does not require an underlayment as one is already built in to each plank. I could see mixed thoughts on underlayment but with a product like this they tell you not to use it, in fact, if you do use it with this product it voids the warranty. The flooring BTW is called "Lifeproof" and home depot sells it but there are so many other brands out there. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

      Hey! Yeah it is not uncommon. I think they do that to make it look more natural, like the variations of a real hardwood floor. I like it but I could see how it would throw someone off. Thanks for the comment and for checking out the video!
