    I’ve never done any renovation project but im motivated to try it out. This gave me a lot more confidence about the flooring, seems simple enough. I’ll dig deeper into the nitty gritty of it but this helped me envision it, so thanks!

      It's a foam pad you put underneath. I think it's to help keep the temperature in, kind of like a floor insulation. Go to Lowe's, Hope Depot, or any other flooring place around you and ask for help and they can explain what all you need and why. 🙂

      @@TheTwigglet I'm mildly handy and did my entire basement - came out great. Skill required is low. All physcial labor so hope you're good kneeling down/standing up a lot. First, from any flooring store or Home Depot/Lowes you can get an LVP install kit. That will include a rubber mallet, prybar, and tab block. These are the three tools you'll use to make sure each piece is "tapped" into place as tight as possible and won't separate later. To cut the pieces, all you need is a saw - I used a Miter saw, quick and easy for cutting length. I used a small table saw if I had cut width. That was it. It's pure physical labor. Snaps together like magic. If your installation carries through a doorway, you'll have to decide if you just want to cut to a threshold or "flow" through which can be more difficult. Oh, and the sawzell or job tool he had to cut moldings is a dream and will also help cut tinier cuts into the LVP when necessary - like when you're installing up against a door molding and you just need a little notch or something. It's awesome. Take your time but once you get your first line down, it's super easy.

      This is how to install these types of flooring. We also did in another house - luxury vinyl planks and its pretty much the same process to install.
      and never ever - any glue necessary. In the manufacturers instructions it even warns you about Not using glue
