People I am a professional. What Joe is teaching will set you on a great path. On one install for a customer who watched me doing the install. He said Bob you used tape at first then you did the rest off a piece of scrap. As he scratched his head. That scrap was the cheater board people. I don't care how squirrely your walls are the cheater will make the last cut along the walls perfect to the squirrely wall and so much more. Joe truly is a gift to installing flooring. I thought I knew how then I started doing exactly how Joe teaches. I was paid handsomely for learning Joe's way.

Joe……thanks so much for your videos. I have installed plank flooring in the past in my house, my sons, and brother in laws. But watching your videos made this install so much easier. The screwing down scrap pieces instead of trying to use spacers was phenomenal. The cheater board works like a charm. Never had such good tight cuts. And installing in the bathroom around the toilet hole and the tub,was a breeze. It came out better than I would have hoped for. As a man of faith, I also appreciate you be vocal and expressing your belief in prayer and Christ. Bless you and thank you!.

Just spent 3 days helping my friend lay laminate flooring and quarter round moldings with transition pieces between tile and laminate. Neither one of us have ever done anything like that before - we are both retired ladies - but watched KZbin videos to learn how. WHY oh why didn’t your videos show up when we searched for information??? This is the best tutorial of them all, and would have saved us so much frustration.

It would be nice to send you a gift for helping us and removing the “plank floor installation fear”. It’s amazing that you knew so many people do in fact doubt themself’s with this one project.

If you want to get staples out, and especially if you have a bunch to do, a pair of fence pliers works way better than channel-locks. The pointy end can often pull the stapes on its own, but if it leaves some behind, the pinchers in the middle of the round head does a beautiful job or rolling the staple out

People because I took notes. I studied what Joe is teaching. I now install flooring as one of the trades my company offers. Joe is the real deal. Do exactly as he instructs. Yesterday I laid flooring in a bathroom. the only time the tape came out is to figure out how to place planks so I did not end up with a sliver at any wall. Doing that is the hardest part in my opinion. Once I got that straight it was cheater board and skill. No sweat. Customers were very pleased when I was done. Do what Joe is teaching. Don't try to do it your way. Save yourself the sorrow of oops. Namaste.

This is spot on - all the 'tricks of the trade' that Joe and the rest of us learned through trial and error, and looking at a situation thinking about how to put down the best floor. Some (many) installers just rack & smack, they don't give alot of thought about placement of butt joints, same patterned boards next to or near each other, or not having small end cuts. This is why Joe stands out in his work. Very good explainations of the "why", not just "how to". Keep up the good work and keep all your digits!

Joe, thank you for this educational installation video jammed packed with tips. We bought a house last year and want to replace the upstairs carpet with some type of plank/laminate/SPC floors option but we need to save $. I feel as if we can actually be successful. I love the part where you showed how to fill an unleveled subfloor, as I have these in a few areas that we feel as we walk in the carpet. Question: What is the best way to secure loose plywood on subfloors? We have ALOT of areas that when you step on them, you hear and feel the boards move and squeak. I know we will have to address this issue in addition to some unleveled areas. Thank you and I definitely became a new subscriber!

Wow. Just want to say iI m really appreciating your videos. Thank you for reviewing all the different types of flooring and sharing all your expertise on installation, etc. You are helping me in my decision for a floor, as it can be overwhelming. I also plan to do it myself, as I previously have put in a pre-finished solid hardwood as well as an engineered floating hardwood, so now feel more confident purchasing a floor that will be easier for me to DIY. Thank you thank you!

Just finished around an island and the cheater board and spacers were a LIFESAVER! Took a little extra time to setup and visualize but it made marking and cutting SO MUCH EASIER.

Hello Joe, just wanted to drop you a note and thank you for the video. Just installed 900 sqf in my basement following your video. Specifically the “first line is the last line trick and screwing (to concrete) pieces so it doesn’t move. Thanks again.

You are the real deal brother. I worked for a very reputable by the book carpet and vinyl company and no longer work for them as I have switched to learning tile now. The methods you use are the same methods pass down from the old timers and the things that you say always match up with what I've heard at trade shows and things like that. Truly appreciate your craftsmanship we're losing people like you everyday
