    Watching again since I need to lay more sheet vinyl and I'd completely forgotten some of this info. I have since acquired a toilet jack so the toilet can be moved out of the way rather than cut around. I intend to caulk around the flange where it meets the sheet vinyl to make sure no water goes underneath. Instead of knee pads (which don't seem to fit me right) I'm going to use an anti-fatigue mat that can be moved around.

    Tells you to leave 75mm extra around the sides, doesn't tell you how or when to trim it though. I'm guessing lay one wall at a time, trim off the 75mm and then do the tape bit?

      Hi, Barry! We'd advise cutting this with a metal straightedge and sharp knife, then lifting the edges and tape after. We also sell a vinyl trimming tool on our website which might be easier: product code 3663602666288. For a full step by step guide, please see our article bit.ly/3wk1wCe 😊

      Just plan out carefully and take your time before cutting. The old standby rule... Measure twice before cutting once. Count on some unexpected snags when doing the work, just simply count on it. It's rarely as smooth and clear a job as show by pros in videos, particularly for first timers.
      Enjoy your new floor.

    Cracking good video thanks.
    When your cutting around a sink/toilet, I found easier with a steel edge, such as that from a combination try square. Flat on the floor and pushed against the edge of the pedestal makes for a more accurate cutting of the slots. The try square, still pushed against the edge, makes for clean cut around the pedestal profile. I used a Stanley for cutting.

    • @bandq
      @bandq  3 роки тому

      The difference between lino and vinyl is that linoleum is made from natural and renewable materials and vinyl flooring is made from man made synthetic materials. The design range of vinyl is endless, while linoleum is limited. Lino can be susceptible to moisture damage and requires additional maintenance upon installation but can last a long time. I hope this helps! 🙂

      You have to get "vinyl flooring spray adhesive", make sure it's for vinyl florring. Many spray adhesives are for carpet only. I got some on Ebay for my existing flooring, but it's quite expensive. The Diall product in the video is no longer available at B&Q for some reason. Shame because it was dirt cheap.

    When you get your rolls of vinyl do the roads have to be laid out and flatten for 24 hours before you can do it

    • @bandq
      @bandq  Рік тому

      The preference would be to have it unrolled to acclimatise, however, it's not necessary. As long it's been in the room where it's being fitted for 24-48 hours prior to fitting, you shouldn't have any problems. Not allowing the sheet vinyl time to acclimatise can result in the flooring expanding or shrinking. I hope this helps!

    • @bandq
      @bandq  Рік тому

      You could use both if you wanted to. However, if you are laying the sheet vinyl in a bathroom or similar wet areas, it would be best to use the sealant as it's purpose is to stop water getting into the gaps. Trims are only used for aesthetic purposes. I hope this helps! 😊

  • @subaruamazon

    Hi BQ I am going to go with vinyl flooring for my kitchen. there are two types. One is more and no "cork" backing. the other cheaper but I like the color better. What do you recommend. I want the cheaper one because of the color but I want to pay more for a better backing. What do you suggest? Does the "cork" backing make a better floor? thx.

    • @bandq
      @bandq  Рік тому

      Hi Mark, cork backed vinyl has a few advantages - Cushioning effect, thermal and acoustic insulation properties. The cushioning effect is more comfortable to walk on, although if you're planning to put a table and chairs on top, this may leave dents. The thermal effect will help maintain a comfortable temperature in colder seasons. The acoustic effect would be beneficial if you were laying it on an upper level as it reduces sound transferring between floors.
      As we're unsure what the "other cheaper" vinyl is backed with, we can't comment further. However, vinyl flooring itself has many advantages over other floor coverings such as, cost, easy installation, no underlay required etc.
      We wouldn't be able to suggest a preference on your behalf, but I hope this helps you make a decision 😊
