Flooring - simply-surface... in European Grey Oak
I was an early product tester of Simply Surfaces flooring. Since I installed it last year they have decided to launch a 9 inch plank version which is more consistent with the demand they see from customers. I am really happy with the final result, it's a Jeff approved product. Cheers!

I owe you an update. Yes, I had trouble installing the planked flooring back in September, and had to stop because of my needs for the space at the time. I did the leveler and let cure while I was gone. I got at it again and all worked out. The 1/8 to 1/4 inch variation along the underlayment was amazingly, the problem. The edges would not lock. All good now. Happy.

Really like your videos, and they're very informative. You mentioned warranty and it's not always the fault of the installers. We purchased a new home and within 6 months, the floor failed. A professional flooring company installed this floor. After they contacted the manufacturer and a representative came out. It was discovered there was a problem at the manufacturer. So the manufacturer replaced the entire house under warranty...

The earlier laminates were " water resistant ". If that is what was installed, as what was put in our home by the builder, you'll have those water issues. Technology has evolved and now there's waterproof. However, a floor's only as good as its installation! Thanks, Jeff for all of the great instruction on installing a solid floor!

I picked up one of those bulky tapping blocks with a handle and that thing completely revolutionized my experience installing my vinyl plank. It let me get even pressure and tap ends without a mallet so I could use the other hand to keep things steady. Also, I found a doorstop that you can put on your top hinge in like two minutes that works as a temporary solution or one that I ended up keeping because it's less noticeable than a stick coming out of your baseboard.

From an appliance installers perspective, if at all possible, do the flooring under the dishwasher not to the dishwasher. If you don’t, sometimes the flooring will get caught on the feet of the dishwasher at time of removal when replacing dishwashers I’ve installed dishwashers for seven years and I always recommend the floor under the dishwasher and all of the Appliances.

Always read the instructions included with any particular brand of vinyl plank or laminate flooring. Some manufacturers direct the installer to begin with the "tongue" side of the first row to go towards the wall, while others require the "groove" side to be oriented adjacent to the wall.

Looking into installing vinyl tiles soon so this video came out at a great time! In a video a couple of years ago, you mentioned you should use an underlayment on most floor types for 11 or so different reasons. What was the reason you didn't use one in this home? Cost, floor type, manufacture warranty limitation? I saw these boards have an underlayment on them already but have read that it can help with noise and other issues depending on subfloor type. Thanks for your videos!

Sorry to revisit the question but could you please confirm for me whether underlay pad is - or is not - required when I install the vinyl plank in the basement on top of a well constructed sub-floor (plywood etc) with padding already glued on. Your video about types of vinyl was direct and clear in stating that underlay must be installed, but are you now saying it’s not needed in some cases (your trailer when you don’t plan on it lasting long)? Overall you have a great video series Jeff and several have been quite instructional and inspiring for me - recently removed bathtub and wall tile based on your advice, and I used your tip to buy the Bagster for hauling away debris.

I just installed vinyl flooring (1’ x 2’) pieces in a 5 x 5 bathroom. The planking doesn’t interlock like regular flooring, all I had to do was lay the seams on top of each other push down tap on top with my rubber mallet and they locked together, no lifting to slide into the slot. So much easier to install especially around door openings.

I’m a contractor specializing in water damage for the past 9 years. The “water proof” claim doesn’t mean water won’t get through the joints, it means the vinyl won’t get damaged by the water. A spilt over glass of water won’t to any harm, but Anything meaningful amount of water will go right through those cracks and the flooring will have to or pulled to dry underneath.

I'm watching your videos, you are creating great content, and giving helpful advices. But if i may, for vinyl and laminate flooring there are easier ways to mark cuttings on boards which will save you alot of precious time. In places where you will need to cut long cuts, just add addidional row of planks (skip row where you will fit cutted planks), so you'll end up with space between wall and that next row, then use small leftover piece, to mark all the cutting lines, just put it on the wall, and draw your line pulling that small piece all the way, on your next board, and you will get a perfect fit, when you cut that plank. Same goes for doorways. This way measuring your cuts will take you just a seconds instead of minutes, and you wont leave any space for mistakes. Also you should trim your doorway frames, and fit planks under it, for more profesional look, takes more time but it will be worth it. Also dont leave any spaces, to fill it later, it will take much more time to fit plank to those spots later ;) Keep up the good work.

Okay Jeff….I’ve been working on my bathroom- if you remember, I removed the texture with Joint compound, wasn’t happy with how it turned out, began again and everything (new paint peeled off like a horror movie). I’m on track now. Flooring has been removed. I’m priming my self leveler now, will self leveler later today. I had plans to go with a vinyl sheet flooring option however, we’re very limited here in California and the ones that I’ve seen seem awfully thin. So Home Depot has that lifetime vinyl plank flooring… And I believe I can do it. This is a very small space and want to know your thoughts between sizes available to me I can go 12” x 24” or 18” x 36”… which do you feel is better for a small space… And we’re talking really small 8’ x 3 1/2’ at most. Seems to me the less seems the better also the blank says it has an underlayment already. I’m watching your video now and I noticed you’re not putting anything on your subfloor- do I need anything with my concrete?

Don't score planks on top of installed new flooring, put a scrap piece under it in case the knife slips. That undried filler is going to split and crack if it gets walked on before it cures.

What do you guys think about vinyl pieces that after installed start to lift up? When you step on them you can feel the space in between them and the foundation?

A previous video I saw from you said you had to put an underlayment under vinyl flooring. Why aren’t you using it? Thanks for your helpful videos!

Thanks for your amazing video. Just wanted to ask you if putting this flooring is not necessary to maintain a gap from the wall or use a spacers kit? Thanks once again

Most people don't have a laser. You can snap a control line on the floor from one end of the room and through any adjoining room. That way you'll have a permanent line to always refer to.

@@HomeRenoVisionDIYyou can use the laser to establish a straight line.Then transfer it to the floor and snap a line on the floor. You'll always have a control line at any point in the installation to measure off of. Especially when you were going into the next room to see how parallel the walls are to the run you've already established. I've laid down a lot of T&G sub-floor. Even with using 8' pieces it would still "rainbow" as you put it.

Hi, I’m looking to do my kitchen floor within the month, due to new cabinets being installed and would like to ask you a few questions. Should I remove linoleum off entire floor before installing? Should baseboard boards be removed? Finally, should I use any type of adhesive for the floor? I’m thinking from all the research that I have done, install should be the following: demolition, repair any damage to walls, paint, install cabinets, countertops, backsplash, floor then lighting. Is this correct.
