I am getting conflicting information about cork vs rubber backed Vinyl Core flooring needing an underlayment. I will be installing a 6.5mm rigid core plank with Cork back over 800 sq ft of tile and I would like to avoid putting underlayment if it is not necessary. I see you installed a cork back right over tile with grout lines thicker than 1/4 wide. Your comments in the video around the core backing answered my question around needing to float a filler to avoid translation of grout lines over time. I would not expect grout lines to translate through a thicker core floor as they would a flimsy vinyl product. This is the answer I have been searching for. I find your videos very informative and am grateful for the time you take in explaining everything. Thank you so much!

Jeff, you're amazing! Helped me a lot when I just got here in USA. As a professional installer now, I recommend the people get a mixed pattern to lay the lines (different from that you used on the video - with a lot of "H" in the lines). And yes, doorjambs are the worst part for an installer, but you could install the piece easily between these doorjambs using your tapping block and a pull bar. It's impossible just if the piece needs to cover the 2 areas with a "C" shape. Not agreed with all information in the video but you're excellent as always. Thanks for teaching us.

I am a sales person for flooring, vinyl plank, laminate, carpet, tile, etc. I have installed vinyl plank and laminate before. Also, I actually build displays for the flooring I sell. I will say this, you pay for what you get. The more expensive the plank, the easier it is to put together and the better quality you are going to get. For example, his flooring tells you how many feet you can go before you need a transition, all flooring is different. Make sure you read the box on any flooring you are thinking of getting, that is information right from the manufacturer and it usually tells you all about the flooring. For example, length before a transition, whether it's three-seasons ready, maximum tempatures, etc. Do your research on any flooring and the methods of installation before you buy, it will save you lots of time and money. I have ran into many people that are mad and they say vinyl plank is junk but when I ask what happened, it usually is because they got into a hurry and didn't properly install the flooring. And if you aren't sure you are doing something right, ask questions, watch videos like this, Jeff is pretty good at what he does and has quite a few great tips on every project you are thinking of doing.

Awesome video! One thing to point out about going directly over tile with a SPC core is to make sure the brand you bought will maintain the warranty if you go over a tile floor without patching first. Majority of Luxury Vinyl Planks with a SPC Core still require you to do a light patch over the entire tile floor for 2 main reasons: 1. The grout line CAN transfer through a SPC core it just takes a much longer time for it to happen 2. Most Tile floor over the years becomes slightly uneven and cracking which could cause structural issues within the floor which a lot of manufactures wont honour their warranty if the floor underneath isn't is really really good condition. But that being said, a light patch over a tile floor only takes a few minutes to do and a few hours to dry depending on how deep the grout likes are so it can still be done in an afternoon. Been an installer for many years and have also worked along side multiple reps that handle insurance claims for manufactures and these are the 2 main things i see often

Home Depot’s Lifeproof works like a charm over tile. Renovated a basement that was mostly vinyl tiles except for a laundry room which had porcelain tile. Didn’t want to try to bust it up. Lifeproof is very stable over the porcelain and contributes a lot, for a relatively modest price, to the overall look. My one complaint with Lifeproof is that the tongues are not the strongest and will break off if you’re not careful or try to reposition it. I put Pergo on the first floor which has a more refined look than Lifeproof at a similar price. But no way was I going to put Pergo in the basement because of its . They each have their quirks.

Excellent video. I recently did a guest bedroom in my basement using LVP. Not my first time but challenges nonetheless. I didn't use quarter round or show moulding, I used the baseboards themselves since I took them off for a complete room paint redo. Looks great, as does your floor in this video. Thanks for the info.

Great video, thanks! I have a question though. I'm installing an LVP floating floor in a bathroom, and the instructions are adamant that you do not put the LVP under cabinets, or secure it to the subfloor. However, my new vanity is the free standing style that will need to have the LVP run underneath it. Will the flooring be secure under this vanity? Any help here is appreciated!
