Installing Vinyl cove base corners

[@DeplorableVPN]

Been doing this for 5 years, great job I must say but you just showed me a way that will make my life easier.

[@mrfantum1]

Glad it helped.

Old school corner. Not many do that anymore. Never used hot glue tho. Good work.

[@johnjohn-ne8fw]

[@elisanchez7965]

Thank you! Great camera angles...nice n easy, to the point

[@knifeparty88901]

I know its an old vid but thanks! We just got done laying floor in our new store and are at this stage. Inner corners are easy but wasnt sure how to hit the outer corners. Thanks!!

[@ashleygrant3131]

This is awesome and we will absolutely spend money with you after watching this video :)

[@mrzacat3tasm3xxxico20]

Great video,fast & clean , on point. just quick q? After install what's the best / easiest way to clean out that adhesive spreader

[@robalan57]

It can’t be done easy.

[@carlhenderson7254]

I just run water in it.

[@solb101]

Nice work. How do you do inner corners?

[@edmcd5040]

Is caulking required in the bathroom to seal the top & bottom of moulding? Thanks for demonstrating the installation near wood moulding, I didn't know what to do about it till I saw that you just placed it next to it ...

[@mrfantum1]

I guess you could seal the bottom but I would not do the top.

[@damiandelapp5490]

well that seems easy enough..except you just have to do it about a hundred times to get it down!

[@mrfantum1]

20 years and you get it right each time.

Like a BOSS, nice job

[@threeonenineink6446]

Love it.

[@romanhinojosa2119]

Thank you for the tip I needed

[@loisyoung2372]

I am installing this in a bathroom where I dont want it to be able to leak underneath. Any suggestions as to how to keep water from leaking underneath.

[@mrfantum1]

Use a good sealant. Not just the cheapest silicone. Preferably clear. I've not had a huge amount of success doing that but it can help if water spillage is an issue.

[@connoradams4974]

Nice video,your knife is extended like way to far when you are trimming your backing, it scared me lol

[@mrfantum1]

Over 20 years of installing and never lost a didget. But thanks.

[@ryanmurillo8625]

if that's what you'r worried about, u aint no tradesman..🤣

[@CuriouslyEnough]

What is that multi lines nozzle you are using to apply the sealant?

[@mrfantum1]

It is an applicator that you can buy from most flooring stores and box store. It fit onto the end of the large tubes of Wall base adhesive.

[@johnnypea5447]

I am deaf now from the square hitting the concrete.

[@richardfox3924]

What kind of knife using?

[@mrfantum1]

An Olfa L1 utility knife

[@robalan57]

I found a Roberts 10-215 Razor Blade Carpet Knife that is similar on Amazon.

[@jabaralanzi9849]

👍👍👍❤️👌

[@kwantoon]

Do you really hot glue every outside corner? I'm not trying to be a know-it-all, but that hot glue is simply not necessary. When those corners are cut properly and you use a full spread notched trowel for the adhesive, they will stick just fine. Your cutting technique is pretty good, but try taking one slightly deeper pass down the center instead, and avoid scoring the toe.

[@mrfantum1]

The hot glue is just to good it in place till the other glue dries. It'll keys you move around a bit quicker on big jobs

[@kwantoon]

@@mrfantum1 I know what it's for, but if they're cut correctly you only need base adhesive. How does adding an extra tool and an extra step make things move quicker?

[@neilmurphy3239]

@@kwantoon It’s his method and it works for him this way tried and tested he won’t be back round there seeing if it’s pulling off the wall especially in difficult conditions looks good too me he will get paid at end off job and have piece off mind that it is stuck at the corners that’s all it matters

[@markwebb2148]

Way to slow for me at $3 a MTR contact and heat for me

[@anthonypatterson5524]

I'm sorry man but this too many steps and tools. I would have had the hole room cut in already

[@austinverbeek5822]

Anthony Patterson sure you would lol

[@kwantoon]

You're right about it being too many steps, but. it's not a race and if you're cutting in base like that, I'm sure your work leaves a lot to be desired.

[@anthonypatterson7440]

@@kwantoon haven't had any problems yet. To each his own. Time is Money my man. So in a sense it is a race man. I'm not talking shit just saying. Floor on my man.

[@kwantoon]

@@anthonypatterson7440 I guess it all depends on your clientele. The majority of jobs that I work on would never accept that kind of quality. The punch list would be a mile long and it would say "remove and re-install cove base correctly", there's no fixing that. Too much of that shit will get you removed from the bid invite list and you can kiss your reputation goodbye. Cutting corners doesn't save that much time

[@realglenno]

Soon as a buffer or mop hits that corner its done.....get some real training
