DIY RV Reflooring with a Flush Slide-Out

[@AnthonyBurbidgeTV]

This video is an amazing resource! So, so, so helpful. Thank-you for making this video! The lip transition was a big question for me when considering how to replace the carpet in my own 5th wheel. This video gives me hope that it can be done!

[@billwhite9701]

Appreciate you all being so clear and honest in your in devour.

[@dinapreuss1922]

Wow. Thanks so much for this video! We're thinking about redoing our floors and have wondered how to address the pop out. Whew. Thank you!

[@MortonsontheMove]

Glad it was helpful! :)

[@LonnieWormley]

I am so glad that you went into details about installing the plank flooring on your slide. I am pretty handy with installing flooring and I have been searching the internet for a few years to see how re-flowing a slide would work. thanks for getting down to the nitty-gritty on this issue.

[@andrearobaina4457]

Excellent video, thank you so much for taking the time and effort to post it. Very helpful and full of important tips!

[@rogerharris6341]

Just watched the flooring install nice work bummer about the screw scratch try cutting the head of the screw off with a receiptrecating saw with a metal cutting blade 👍👍

[@jameslaiola4976]

❤❤❤ I just wanted to say thank you to you both. Quite honestly your videos have given me the confidence to take care of some of the things I had to do. I went ahead and got the composting toilet installed myself. Thanks to you I was able to do that. I was also able to fix my gray water tank- that scared me horrendously. Now I'm officially scared because I have to reframe my rear wall. I'm going to try and Salvage my floor. But it looks like it might have to come out. I did contact a leading technician from Thompson's RV and they told me that it's time to consider a new floor. So I'm watching your video and I'm biting my fingernails because I'm scared to do this, but I am going to attempt this. I just want to say thank you once again because your videos are giving me the confidence to make it through this and not pay millions of dollars on an older RV

[@UncleLouietheMillwright]

Hello, I compliment you on looking at various options to the flooring such as laying down a plank of plywood and so on... Great details you spoke of. I wasn't aware of such a flooring such as stick and glue as you used. All the best!

[@johnsimpson99]

I'm a flooring guy with 20 years in the biz. Normally I cringe when I watch a DIY install. But you guys did a fantastic job. Kudos. Btw - you can replace the damaged plank relatively easily.

[@EpicMiniLife]

Hey all. We did exactly the same remodel, the same way with the slides. Our slide edges have been solid, and even overhang just a bit to cover the original metal strip. We use 1/2 cut small pool noodles to buffer the slide bottoms when we bring them in. Works really well. We have four 8 to 10” pieces on the main slide, and two for the smaller slide. Just put them in perpendicular with the slide and they’ll take the weight and still slide. Your project looks great! Nice work, and kudos on the timeline. That’s pretty aggressive! We also did the WeBoost installation (4G RV). That was fun too.

[@mitchelschaller9214]

Did you guys have issues with the flooring separating a little bit? I have the exact same trailer and did the exact same floor this guys did. Unfortunately for some reason the planks like to come apart a bit even though we did the temperature acclimation and everything. Also my black part of the slide isn't straight? Haha

[@DoneRightReviews]

I do this sort of thing for a living, and you guys did SOOOOOOOO many things well on your project. You even nailed the radius around the shower and toilet! Thumbs up from me! :)

[@frankiehume2452]

We’ve had Allure flooring in our bathroom for about two years. It still looks brand new. I do remember the directions saying not to caulk or seal the edges as it is a floating floor and could expand and contract even though it’s not wood. Caulking the edges could cause it to bow if it expands too much. We will doing something similar to our fifth wheel soon. It looks great.

[@dinahrogers5230]

It's good to know you're still happy after 2 years. I've wondered not so much how the vinyl holds up but if the planks stay down, don't lift on the corners, bow, etc.

[@frankiehume2452]

Dinah Rogers we’ve had no issues at all. Still looks brand new.

[@lwood8]

We have the same flooring in our home. We had a screw from the plywood underneath come up and create a hill on one piece. We called allure and they said to take a sharp knife and cut the whole piece of plank out and then cut the glue ends off a new piece and put some tough as nail glue on the plywood and lay the piece of plank on it. Worked like a charm.

[@bigjimflying7195]

lwood8 I bet it did. I was going to suggest that along with using a hair dryer to heat the adhesive getting it to release and make it possible to pull up the damaged plank(s).

[@shiftfocus1]

So helpful! I'm planning a reflooring effort after I have a shop sort out our spongy subfloor (a whole other story), and this has answered just about all my questions.

[@lloydmorrisonii1373]

Outstanding video! Thank you so much for sharing. We have a quarter million dollar Diesel pusher with 3 slides. Being a retired police officer on a limited income, we opted for a nice pre-owned R.V that was a trade in, and we waited till November when the dealer's price dropped for New inventory. We paid just under 100K for a pristine unit. After 1 year of our dogs traveling and camping with us, the carpet cleaning became more than anyone could stand. To have 140 sq. ft. installed was $1500.00! We are doing the job ourselves, and needless to say, to do the job myself is scary. This video explains enough to where I can do this with confidence.

[@marksgarlata3387]

Lloyd Morrison II That price sounds very reasonable for a floor change out in a diesel pusher depending what all needs to be removed and reinstalled to do it right

[@billderinbaja3883]

Great job. Thanks so much for taking the time to discuss the issues you ran into... I'm planning to do our 5th wheel floor and the slides have me perplexed.... your whole thought process in addressing the issues was excellent. A few ideas for your next project: 1) Glued sheet vinyl... use a heat gun... comes right off 2) Staples... use 2 pairs of vice grips... grab the staple end with one, use the other to leverage, rather than pulling with muscles.... that'll tire you out!

[@MortonsontheMove]

Thank you!

[@georgegarton8736]

Well,done, very articulate, I will be reflooring similar this winter in my 38 foot Winnebago. Great tips, will use Home Depot and like their product as I have seen it laid out in other videos.

Great job guys! And good to know what to watch out for when we take on the task.

[@deansorgan]

Oh God, been there, done that! The staples were problematic but not impossible to remove during the reflooring of my 2004 Holiday Rambler Savoy. I went with 24” square carpet tiles by Mohawk and glued every one of them down. We did the slide-out as well and when extended, the tiles blend in together with almost no gap. And, we can walk on it with the slide out retracted. I was worried about the extra weight as well but doesn’t seem to be a problem. Thanks for sharing your experiences!

[@WhiteFox011]

I know that this is a bit of hindsight, but, they make a material that is supposed to be able to '"repair", damaged wood like you have. You mix together 2 parts, and smear it into the damaged area, the more torn up the wood is, the better. I think they recommend overfilling the area, and then after it cures, level it out. It has something to do with how the product changes during the curing process. I think it shrinks a bit. I wish I had the name of the product. I saw it being used on an episode of, "This Old House", on some very difficult to reproduce elements of some exterior porch railing.

[@MortonsontheMove]

I used to use that to repair wooden plane propellers, totally forgot about it. Thanks!

[@JuddCohen]

[@meganking536]

When pulling staples after remodeling 3 homes with carpeting, one of the most time-consuming parts of the process that many look over when planning for their projects is all of those staples...I've found that needle nose pliers are best instead of regular pliers. This process takes forever for everyone. To give you an idea, my father and I ripped up 3 rooms of carpeting to which we listened to the Hamilton soundtrack whilst completing. By the time we finished. Hamilton died 4 times.

[@joncharles6403]

Use a grinder

[@rodneyjohnston6280]

We just bought our 1st trailer trailer After watching you pull up your carpet I am sure glad That we have tile and our trailer

[@scottwoods7231]

We had a tear in our floor from a screw. Now we use a moving pad placed on the floor when it slides in to protect the floor. When the floor is extending back out we remove the pad so it doesn't get jammed into the slide gears. Give the pups a bone, they worked hard. :-) Nice job!

Do yourself a favor use a grinder on the staples

[@philipgilmore8869]

Did you change the "glide strip" under the flat floor slide out? They are a kind of plastic for carpeted flooring and a rug or felt type material for hard flooring. They carry some of the weight of the slide out room as it goes in ot out. The wrong type can gouge your floor. If yours is a system made by HWH Co, then this strip is the entire length of the room and is outside when the room is extended. Our hwh system has the glide strip over a support bar that is removed to get at the glide strip. To do that, the weight of the slide out must be supported by jacks snd blocking or dome way to get the stress off of the mechanism. You can also adjust the height of the room as it dlides in or out to give more clearance. We want to do tha sas me kind of job on our Winnie class A. Carpet isccx worn and after 15 years must come out. We thought about vinyl planks or grip lock like you used. Btw, I successfully used the grip strip flooring to finish off the ends and back of a cabinet that we used to make a peninsula in our home kitchen. I installed each plank vertically using small power brads to hold it in place until I got the moldings inatalled. After a month or so, the grip strip flooring kindbnb od bonded into place and seems to be staying put just fine after a year. Thsnks for your very helpful video. 😎

[@MortonsontheMove]

Glad you liked it. Yes we use carpet runners to bring the slide in on now. Works great.

The best tool for removing flooring staples is side cutters. You just clamp on the staple and pivot the cutters like a lever to pull them out. It will save you hours.

[@minert12345able]

Thanks for your 6 yr old video; others may have mentioned this, but in regards to your screw scratch on the freshly installed flooring, and judging from the camera angle perspective, it actually looked like a typical flooring joint because of it's short straight run. In any case, it most likely faded out after you worked in some vinyl putty or touch-up marker paint. Great video and tips, thanks for sharing!

[@jeanettewalter7665]

Just wanted to say thanks, replaced floor and used a piece of plexiglas under each side of the slide to protect the new floor after seeing your problem. So glad we did you can see scraping on the plexiglass where the steel plate support under the side.

[@workingtorelax1223]

Flooring is very nice modern. Brings the unit up to date. Two things as side tips. One side cutters work way better for them staples. I have had to pull my fair share of staples out of rv carpeting lol. Not my favorite job. Second I saw some water damage at the front of the flush slide when the carpet was up. You might want to look into that at the front of the side, and that might have been the culprit to the rear as well. I have seen that a lot to. Smart idea sealing the floor edge before reinstalling the trim. You might want to thing it over and seal the trim edges in the bath, kitchen, and by the entry door to help protect them from water if their is a major spill, leak, or raining out side. I did this with my camper when we replaced the flooring because I figured it would be my luck something would happen. Lol happy camping, and safe travels.

[@ABQdoubleG]

The new flooring is lovely, well done!

[@rickylapine3919]

Did the same in 2017. Also used Allure Vinyl Plank. The only way to go thin enough for the slides to still go over the top of. You could get another set of those grey slide slickers to put down at the corners of the slides before bringing them in to prevent more scratches.

[@steveschannel961]

Great job! I love vinyl plank flooring. It's almost impossible to discern it from real wood and the water resistance and wear qualities are excellent. I have a feeling that the area on the edge of the slide will eventually fail. If you find yourself repairing it in the futute, I would suggest getting a piece of 3/16" or 1/4"" steel, 3 or 4 inches wide and mounting it on the leading edge of the slide with countersunk flat head screws to support the edge of the flooring. You can fill in the rest of the slide area with a piece of underlayment. The added weight will be neglible and you should end up with years of use.

[@MortonsontheMove]

Yea I think thats what we will do if this fails. 2000 miles, 20+ slide movements and so far so good, but it will just take one wrong step.

[@enna4986]

Beautiful! Nice rv, too! You have inspired me to plan to tackle our '98 Damon Daybreak... Thank you so very much, Mortons🤗

[@hotdrippyglass]

You could try gluing a small strip of one of those plastic flexible cutting boards to the underside where the slide tips down although you might have to shop around for a glue that will hold it in place. The video was excellent. Lots of "doing it" footage as well as clear explanations of what you encountered and what decisions you made. Thank You.

[@robertdoyen5434]

We have the same floor in our old farm house and it holds up very good. We started in just the kitchen and 4or5 years later we put it in the rest of the rooms and we could just take up the door way floor up and put down the new floor and it blended in very well so when you get the screw flat you can pull up the old one and put in a new one.

[@moviebuffbabe5651]

I've had this flooring for a couple of years now and I love it! you're right though unsupported it will chip/break so figure out a way to support it if there is any chance it will be hit or stepped on in an unsupported area. No need to glue it down it doesn't move and i've got it in both large and small areas :D

It looks nice. The lip of the exposed plank when the slide is in: make a strip of wood, with short pile carpet wrapped around it, to fit under and support the edge when the slide is in, put it in place when the slide is brought in.

[@micahvanregenmorter1286]

Highly recommend picking up enough boxes to finish the trailer, as if you wait to long it will be hard to find the same thing. I had that happen to me. It was only about 6 months between projects. Would also pick up a spare box for repairs.

[@dinahrogers5230]

Great advise that applies to any material that is completed in phases. Even if the product is still available later on, it's unlikely you can buy the same "run". If the two products are visible together there could be a noticeable color shift.

I previously worked for Williams-Scot which is the largest construction and security trailer leasing company in the U.S. We refurbished all returns etc. We used heat guns to help get the old stubborn floor tiles up.

Try putting some of the pads they use on furniture. When you have hard wood floors. If you can feel the screw, should be able to file it down with a 6" bastards mill file. Slow process but doable.

We just purchased our first RV and are about to replace the carpet with a floor identical to what you have. The scratch from the slide is a great heads up! Thanks. I wonder if something like thin sheet metal with a temporary adhesive spray would work to protect the floor when you move your slide in and out? We’re making a list of things to do and learn too. Like how to escape through the bedroom window in case of fire. Yikes! Practicing frequent drills seems like a good idea. Just subscribed. This video is exactly what we needed.

A word to others in colder climates. We did the same to our class c moterhome. Looked great first year. Stored for the winter here in Montana, went out in spring and all the seams had pulled apart even after rolling them. Not sure as to the reason, but was not pretty. After warming back up they did start to move back together but never did completly. Hopefully others have better luck than we did. It did look awsome to begin with.

[@MortonsontheMove]

Good advice, we have been below freezing and noticed the floor shrink a little, but the RV has always been heated.

[@chrischapman276]

I am in the process of updating our "new" coach as well. I have done the same as what you have, the "ALURE" flooring. I noticed at 9:50ish, the side of the slilde with the floor hanging down and not supported. Why not use the "super glue" on top of the plank to the bottom of the frame to have it not droop...? One thing I'm concerned about with my update with the flooring is, I did not pull up the linoleum. I placed the planks over it. (existing linoleum. Now I'm concerned about the added weight. Your thought??? @ 14:45ish, Very nice job on the circular cuts!! That was one of the toughest for me. My patience taken to the test! I personally removed the toilet finding it easier to do so, I just made a couple cuts for drainage, etc. and replace over the linoleum tile...just what I did. I have just come across your video tonight so I am going to have to see what else you've done to not make some mistakes by your advise however, so far I've re-stained the light oak cabinetry to dark maple with light accents on the trim, keeping it closer to the light oakish. I'm looking into replacing the interior lighting to something a bit more attractive than the original ugly things! Going to add a couple pendant lights in the kitchen and living, replace a couple of the wall sconces, etc. OH!!!! GOT RID OF THE BORDERS! Luckily the wall paper actually matches the theme we're going with with earth tones brown/tans oppose to the 'miami vice pastel blue theme!!! Looks like a nice coach and the pride as we have in our "new" 2006 Terry Quantum 330FKDS Extreme Weather model. Boy, the adventures to come with her.....I've certainly got to change out the AC eventually top get some air in the bed room. Good job and thanks for the video.

Great job. Carpet replacement is on the 'to do' list for our late 2007 Alpenlite 34RLR which is very similar in layout to your, looks to be, a MS 32TK3. The MS 32TK3 was on our final short list of models when we got to the shopping stage in 2006. Point taken on using the stick down linolium vs the click lock type flooring. Our carpet is in pretty rough shape after 12 years & something like 2000 nights on the road. Next year when it comes out of storage.

[@MortonsontheMove]

We just took out our carpet and went with the vinyl plank click and lock in our RV and we had some tricky spots too. Always the extra challenges when working in an RV, right?! We didn't have slide-outs to work with, but had other challenges. We didn't have to take out the vinyl with the click and lock, but so glad to see the carpet go! We didn't take the carpet out of the bedroom either. We LOVE our new floor! It's a lot of work but it's worth it, as you already know. Nice work! Enjoy!!

[@elisabethm9655]

I hope your hanging flooring is holding up well...perhaps building a pieced insert to support the cantilevered edge for when it's pulled in/travel mode could be constructed. I can really see that over time that flimsy edge will 'go'... The overall look is gorgeous...and perhaps you could use a dremel tool to grind off that scratching screw head. You really did a top notch job!

[@dicknewman9009]

I have to give you credit that is some really good flooring I put it in a lot of apartments and unlike carpet I don't have to tear it out every 6 months that is the way to go if you want something that's going to last and if it doesn't it's easy to replace

[@ARepublicIfYouCanKeepIt]

Looks amazing y'all! From how you're gesturing contacting the screw head under the slide, you may be able to use a flat file to shave the screw head. Additionally, I don't suggest using THD "wood putty", filler, etc., to fix the gouge in the vinyl flooring. Instead, use an epoxy putty stick from Mohawk in a suitable color. If necessary, different color sticks can be combined following the provided recipe card to achieve an exact color match. You'll use a plastic leveling card (no sanding) to flatten the repair, let harden, then apply any touch up color using a color pen from Mohawk. After that, you can leave the repair as-is, or top coat it with aerosol laquer of the appropriate sheen, using steel wool to rub out a matching sheen. Feel free to reach out if clarification or additional information is needed. This will provide you with a great looking, durable repair. Just be sure to file down that screw head first. Yikes! I can only imagine that you were just crushed when that happened.

Thanks for that recommendation! Will look into that.

On the corner of the slide that hanges down, it can either be nailed or glued to the wood frame of the slide if needed. A spacer could always be used if need be. Good job!

Thanks, We have not had a problem with the corners yet but will probably do that at some point!

Thanks for the video. Very informative. So... it looks like it was posted two years ago. My question is how well it has held up, especially the thin overlap on the slide-out. We have a similar floor covering in our kitchen that has not held up in the time we have installed it. Makes me hesitant to put it in our RV. Now that it has been two years, would you do anything different? Thanks again!

I’m interested in this as well since we are looking at this floor and it says not to install it in an rv

Looks great guys! Would definitely want to make that upgrade as well if we ever got a used rig with carpet. Thanks for sharing all the tricks and tips! - Shane
