audio is horrible, one star.
I cant understand half the things he is saying and I wish I could cuzz I want everyone’s advise. I also can’t hear half the words, like it is all cutting in and out…oh and reading! Can’t!!!
This guy’s got as much personality as a rock
Maybe moisture resistant from surface spills. That has alot to do with the quality of the locking mechanism. You need a moisture barrier if you are installing on concrete, on the main floor or below grade. Laminate is made of compressed wood particles. Remember wood & water don’t mix. You need underlayment to block moisture and absorb sound. If you don’t use underlayment your floor will have a horrible hollow sound. The underlayment will not eliminate this sound but will greatly reduce it.
I tell you one of the reason you should have underlay ; over the time your floor will get dirty and naturaly dust and dirt will go under your laminate from the sides; obviously your floor is going to be floating floor after some time you gonna hear some noise from your floor ,it will annoy you .Another reason is your underlay will help reduce unevenness of your floor so floor preparation expence will be reduced (flor prep is expensive and needs skill).
reason underlayment ‘s plastic side down for moisture barier reason, also no matter what kind or quality of wood product you buy acclimatized it anyway you get better result,trust me clicks easy
We bought Armstrong Grand Illusions Natural Cherry L3022 laminate and it does not need to be acclimated. It probably depends on the brand and quality of the product that determines the need for acclimation. The most time I have heard for acclimation was 48 hours. Also, the undelayment we purchased is the 2-in-1 type and the plastic side is facing up. It even says on the plactic “This side up”, so I don’t know why the underlayment in this video has different rules…..????
can anyone please tell me what the consiquesnces would be if i didn’t put underlay below my laminate? i have new moisture resistant oak laminate which i would like to put on top of what appears to be a chipboard type floor base. any ideas?
Thanks, for providing your know-how video! My husband and have purchased an older frame home that needs a lot of work. I’m now comfortable with attempting to lay down our flooring product! Thanks!
I am installing a lock and click type laminate floor. I am at my last plank and it is at a door area. I spent the whole day and wasted 2 planks trying to install at this area. I cannot tap the planks together if the plank at that area is already pushed underneath the door jamb. Since this particular type of floor has to be angled and then pushed in to lock. Should I redo and start at that wall instead? it is 27 x 13 room.
The is the best demonstration I have seen yet but once I start the 2nd piece in the second row I cannot get it flush in place. It will not tap into place horizontally.
This is not as simple as the video shows for the product I bought.
This video instruction is great. I didnt realise it was that easy and was going to pay someone to show us how. Thanks – i think we may just do it ourselves
perhaps some instruction on joining etc would be good aswell
