I’m looking for tips anyone can offer on installing LVP cap- a-treads. I have installed steps many times with hardwood,laminate, and LVP with separate stair nosings and tread planks. I have a stair jig that I can use for this job. I wondering if a sliding miter saw is the best tool to cut the width of the treads. I also have a Milwaukee track saw which seems like it would work as good , if not better. This job has 4 bottom steps that are open on one lside , and the rest are boxed steps...

Variation on depth across transition
Flooring Forum

When installing luxury vinyl, we had a fair bit of leveling to do. What I hadn't thought of, was the transition to the hardwood floor which is not level. I need to put in a transition strip that is 32" in length and which the luxury vinyl is almost 1/4" higher than the hardwood at one end and less than 1/16" higher at the other end. I'm guessing that I need some sort of flexible transition strip. Any advice would be appreciated. Btw: the gap is nearly one inch wide at the widest point... Read more ..read more

Hi everyone, I’m looking for advice on selecting the best flooring for my basement. Here’s some background on the space: • It’s a walkout basement in the back but below grade in the front. • The house was built in 1993, and we are the second owners. We purchased it in 2019.

Pet pigs and dogs and flooring

Hello Flooring Forum...this is my first time to post and I apologize in advance for the length of my post. I'm looking for some help with problem-solving regarding flooring. I currently have 4 small, elderly dogs (2 of which are at end-of-life with medical issues) and 2 "curvy" pot-bellied pigs (both around 200 pounds each). I currently have click and lock LVP (probably low quality/less expensive) in the living room. I think this flooring is probably 3-4 years old. Over time, the planks have... Read more ..read more

Woven carpet installation information

Some forums have these and I'm wondering if that might be possible here for woven carpet installation information. I run across these videos of Davids now and then. They are short, but detailed. He's a great teacher and it's a shame to have to sift the internet for information. Not to mention that information like this is almost non existent. For such wonderful videos, there are way to few views....... I think mainly because they are hard to find ..read more

Hello. I'm new here and need some help please for the proper steps I need to take to install a new laminate floor on a concrete slab floor in a 1 story residential home here in South Florida. When we purchased the home in 2021 the previous owner had a flooring company install a laminate floor before the sale of the home. However, the flooring company decided to use drywall as a subfloor sitting directly on top of my concrete slab. Now we have black mold everywhere. What you see in the... Read more ..read more

Long shot but does anyone recognize the brand of these wood laminate planks?
Flooring Forum

I realize I probably will end up having to go to a flooring store and just find the closest match, but just in case, does anyone here recognize this brand? The previous owners left a bunch of leftover laminate planks, and we ideally want to purchase the matching brand/model as we replace the carpeting. Dimensions are 5" x 48" with 8 mm thickness, I believe. The slightly rippled effect that you can see especially in glare on the last photo seems somewhat unique. The back layer of the planks...

It's been a while since I made a post. Projects for me have pretty much come to a screeching halt. We found out in December 2023 that my wife was pregnant, completely unplanned, but I do know what caused it though . August 2024 we had a beautiful baby girl. All of our attention has been on her since. I did manage to squeeze in a couple small projects last year, helping the neighbors out with their kitchen floor. What an experience that was ..read more
