    • @Trashpanda545

      @@ReyKondiga depends on the cost of flooring vinyl you want. Easiest way to determine go to Home Depot and price. They come in rolls that aren’t super expensive and the adhesive should only be about 40$ for a room that size. I’m getting ready to do a 200sqft trailer and all supplies cost about 116$ but I’m also. It a professional so don’t forget you are paying for their time and expertise.

    • @GeoffreyMorrison-xh2eo
      @GeoffreyMorrison-xh2eo 2 місяці тому

      Price depends upon thickness and styles. It comes in 12ft. wide rolls. Thus, there is another price listed in linear feet, 12x1 ft.
      The cheapest and often easiest way to go is with remnants--plastic-wrapped, bar-coded rolls--hopefully enough for your project. These are less than 12ft. wide.
      Remnants seem currently missing now--at least at big-boxy, usual-suspect home stores.

    People. knee pads number one. When you lay the piece in make sure it is square and not crooked with the walls! also a little trick don't leave any heavy glue swipes make it all consistent and after you spread the glue give it about 5 min or longer to let the glue "off gas" to minimize the amount of bubbles you get. make sure the floor underneath the vinyl is Smooth as possible and Clean enough to eat off of because if not it will show through the vinyl! Their is no room for error once you cut its done.

    Jan. 22, 2019---Thanks for the video. I live in a '74 single wide trailer, moving into it around 1984? Since then, there's been 10 cats/kittens who loved digging their claws into the linoleum. Then add one dog who had 9 puppies which liked chewing on the linoleum the cats had worked on earlier. Finally got down to 3 dogs...my original and 2 of her pups. When they passed on, ended up with another dog, something I didn't expect to happen. Ever. So linoleum is a bit tore up in spots and of course, extremely well worn. Since I'm on Social Security, will be replacing everything bit by bit along with new paneling,insulation and sealing windows. I thought doing the linoleum would be hard, but not after seeing your video. Thanks again.

  • @greenhornet8703
    @greenhornet8703 8 років тому +2

    I followed your advice for my 8x27 foot cargo trailer which is being remodeled into a camper for my wife and I. The vinyl we picked turned out to be real soft/thin which posed problems and I got off straight/true enough that I had to cut it off at the fenderwells and realign. I'll use a transition over the cut (it was my wife's idea). If....IF I ever did this again, I'd have help and probably use vinyl tiles, but it was a fun experience. Thanks!

    Thank you for such an informative video! I do have a question. We are looking at installing vinyl flooring in a large room where we will have a seam. We've laid vinyl flooring before, but the seam part is making us a little nervous, and unfortunately, we can't find any manufacturer's recommendations for installation. Do you have any suggestions for the installation of it, in regards to gluing down versus leaving it as a floating floor (going off memory, I think that's what the sales guy suggested, and just not so sure how comfortable we feel about that), and also for the seam? Never done the seaming before.
    Here is the description for the flooring we have:
    Comfort Foam double encapsulated fiberglass structure provides strength and dimensional stability. Modified loose-lay installation option,offers easy-in, easy-out flexibility. 105 gauge with 10 mil wear layer. Super Guard Urethane finish for stain protection and easy cleaning. Recommended full spread with releasable adhesive.

    What if they don't go through the floor patch? I have floor patch down that is very tough. Won't even crack when hit with a hammer.
    If my vinyl shows things like staples or seams between plywood (in case I need an expansion gap due to changes in temperature), how can I cover that? Is there a type of tape to put down? I have modified looselay sheet vinyl to put down so it will have perimeter tape, but I want something to cover staples, screw heads, and seams.

      @TheRykerDane  10 років тому +4

      You can do a floating vinyl floor and either staple or glue the edges, but it needs to be a heavy vinyl that will lay down flat and not bubble up. Also, sometimes the vinyl you lay can shrink or contract, and if you trim it too much then it will be short on your walls.

    I use a 1 hour decorators caulk for the leveling and adhesive it works really well

    This flooring looks like the Congoleum®ArmorCore Pro Terrace Paver Warm Beige that I'm about to have installed in a half bathroom! Hope it turns out this good.
