Amazing job. : )

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

G Corpus Thank you

[@Jonas.verhaegen]

Do you have a video on pattern recognition like you use here to align the 2 seams?

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

That is different on every piece of carpet, it is something that the individual just has to spot for themselves.

[@jimorfanelli7671]

This guy is good

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Thank you

[@MovingToMnPro]

Thanks for the video. Would you use the same method on a long seam out in the field? I'm laying a commercial carpet in my basement and was going to do a doublecut, but there's quite a pattern to it. (so I've been delaying the install) The carpet get's real thin along the edges and there's an odd pattern of white dots along one edge. Didn't know if there was a special purpose to that.

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

A long seam needs to be row cut, I have multiple videos of that and you will need to cut over into your carpet enough until it feels nice and full, the white yarns showing on the ends of the carpet it’s just part of the salvage edge which will be cut off when you Make your seam

[@MovingToMnPro]

@@FloorsbySouthernboys I realize now the mistake I made. I cut both 18' lengths of carpet, but didn't consider any shift on the second piece to pattern match. Hopefully I get lucky.

[@jerridhawkins8133]

Yea we use weld lock for commercial it does have the uv tracer....but touchdown Taylor usually on axminister or Wilton carpets which have no uv tracings....all installers are different....I have not found u doing a double stick installation yet ,have u ?

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Jerrid Hawkins No videos on it yet

[@doubleds65]

D-815 from dap was my go to. Now its parabond since D-815 got discontinued. That stuff held seams together when you pulled up carpet,lol

[@jerridhawkins8133]

Manufacturers require uav seam sealers....crazy how much flooring installation has changed...running the blue light special at kmart lol....u do decent work though!

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Jerrid Hawkins lol I used a commercial carpet seam sealer and not all seam sealers have UV tracing in it because of if someone was wanting to put carpet in a nightclub or something like that where there was going to be black lights they would not want their seems to show up under the lighting henceforth not all sealers have GV Tracy, I have never seen a commercial carpet sealer that does have UV Tracy, even some of the thermal sealers don’t have EV tracing, thank you for watching Though and thank you for the compliment

[@andybrace4983]

Cracking job....plenty dolla on that job i bet

[@safffff1000]

Hard to believe that would stay together without glue tape behind it

[@jerridhawkins8133]

Seam clamps work wonders

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Jerrid Hawkins Thank you for the recommendation as well

[@jerridhawkins8133]

Np

[@aritulloss6903]

I need a job

[@fredtowns78]

This very carpet I've laid many big jobs and the sewing will cause problems especially on 50 ft + seams!!!

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Fred Towns 👍

[@fredtowns78]

This carpet could be trouble, it's skewed big time across the width!!!

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Fred Towns Yeah I actually had a fit on one of the long seams

[@TRUNGNGUYEN-bz9th]

This is how to cut carpet in the floor.

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

TRUNG NGUYEN thank you sir

[@TRUNGNGUYEN-bz9th]

[@Dave-xr4iz]

Nice work, who's the lady near the end?

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

sausage man Thank you and that would be my wife

[@Dave-xr4iz]

FloorsbySouthernboys oh cool bringing your wife to work now, I don't want to sound odd but I actually thought that when I saw her. Lol just a question are you Christian? (you don't have to answer😂)

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

sausage man Yes I am a Christian

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

sausage man Yes she will bring his supper and hang out with us until he was done since we was working so late over there it’s not a regular that she comes to my jobs

[@Dave-xr4iz]

FloorsbySouthernboys you have a good wife I believe that's very important to have a good woman behind you and be understanding with your work because this is a very hard job at times.

[@markbeaves46]

Did you actually go over the top of all that old adhesive!? Say it ain't so....

[@jimorfanelli7671]

Wouldn't it be easier to pull out a row

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Some carpet just too tight, the yarns will just keep breaking

[@fredtowns78]

Skewing!! Sorry!!
