How to Install Vinyl Plank Flooring
Nathan installed Pergo [pergoflooring.com/] Defense+ 7.5 in. W Classic Weathered Pine Antimicrobial Click Lock Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring [thd.co/3H5bfQY] in a homeowner's kitchen. Nathan used Marshalltown [marshalltown.com/] 13-inch Flooring Shears [thd.co/3tVvLQt]. To account for expansion and contraction of the planks, Nathan used 1/4-inch flooring spacers [amzn.to/3u7jDf4] along the perimeter.
To remove the existing vinyl flooring, Nathan used a circular saw [amzn.to/3rT0H19] to cut the floor into 2'x2' squares, then removed the squares using a pry bar [amzn.to/3nSYzVZ] and hammer [amzn.to/3qZD2Nd], all of which is found at home centers.
William C. Gilbert Carpentry provided expert assistance with this segment.

nathan has been a good addition to the cast, he does great work

[@akivafox3588]

that is a spectacular mullet

[@tombarber8929]

I think last time this video was posted it was determined it’s not a true mullet. Just long hair with the sides shaved. As opposed to business in the front, party in the rear Whatever hairstyle it is though; it’s fantastic

[@mikev.1034]

@@tombarber8929that’s definitely a mullet!!

[@tombarber8929]

​@@mikev.1034I disagree. "The mullet is a hairstyle in which the hair is cut shorter at the front, top and sides, but is longer at the back." but his hair on the front of his head is long, just pulled back

[@bozodog428]

Regardless, that is a mighty head of hair!

Watching the flooring segment I kept waiting to hear the homeowne say "Hey Beavis"

[@akoznasovajusername]

I love natural materials, and especially when something is hand made.

[@danielelse3914]

Love the kitchen's old wallpaper! 😂

[@dinahbutler933]

Best show ever ❤

[@Guardducks]

I like the look on Moby's face, what I'm going to work, i have my Stanley cup and I'm going to work .

[@RandomVids519]

Plumbing/hvac is hands down the coolest thing to learn this man is a great teacher🫡

[@randallhooper4451]

Very nice explanation. When insulating an attic space of the rafters, what if any air flow is needed if the building does not have end vents but rather vents through the ridge vent?

[@njwags95]

Just finished a kitchen floor project, I had 5 layers of flooring!

[@Ivan_Barajas]

What do you do under the cabinets. Do you install around it?

[@donc-m4900]

18:30 Ships product to accumulate days ahead of time to indoor temps, shows pieces being cut to camera outdoors. Lol

[@n9wox]

In the rain no less

[@geoffmorse4366]

why no 1/4 round along the base board in the last segment?

[@Niemand1888]

Even if you have a house perfectly insulated and sealed ,that's not healthy,you need some fresh air in the house .in commercial buildings by law you need ten percent fresh air.

[@SniperPFL]

Control that with HVAC. No need for willy nilly gaps.

[@beng3345]

Not floating the floor, guaranteed that will have a "bouncy" and low spots all over the floor. That stuff is like paper and needs to be laid on PERFECTLY flat surface or you'll feel all the dips.

[@ssl3546]

Ah yes, when winter comes I have the butler close off a "wing" of the building to save on heating bills. Usually the wing with the squash court and the summer staff's quarters.

[@scotttovey]

Some people will close off a room and nothing more. He's just covering the basis in case someone is thinking about doing that.

[@ssl3546]

@@scotttovey he literally said "wing" - I guarantee the number of people watching the video for tips on winterizing their home's "wing" can be counted on one person's fingers.

[@scotttovey]

@@ssl3546 "he literally said "wing" - I guarantee the number of people watching the video for tips on winterizing their home's "wing" can be counted on one person's fingers." That is one fairly big conjecture, a conjecture you can not guarantee. As such, I would not trust anything you claim to "guarantee".

[@saulgoodman2018]

Richard is wrong. You can insulation to much. So what if there is a little gap in you windows. That will not make much of a difference.

You absolutely can ‘insulate too much’.

I sure could use some help by a landscape designer
