    I used to live in Germany before moving to the US and we put something under the flooring. It's not only insulation but also muffles the sound when walking around. In fact, I have never seen it done without. I know Americans are not that bothered about insulating properly but just for the plain sake of having a quiet home, it's a good idea to invest in it We are renovating an apartment house in Germany right now and I have been told by our contractor it's mandatory in Germany now.

    Put that same floor in my bathroom a year and half ago. Different color and style though. Absolute hell installing it. So much cutting but luckily my Dad was able to help me out. Took us two full days to instal it. Not including the demo I did prior to remove the old floor.
    We also had to laid down a new plywood subfloor and then a water barrier on top of that.

    I love watching you guys build houses but watching you do vinyl plank ,which is what I do, is funny because of the few things you do wrong because it’s your first time. But because it was your first time you did really well tho, also you could do your stairs in LVP too you just need stair nosings that matches the floor and PL 3x glue or maybe Lexel(I haven’t used it before) but your stair work was like perfect. Also pin nails are better for the shoe molding it doesn’t need a whole 18 gauge Brad nail😂

      Regarding your outdoor concrete walk with a step about every 6 feet or so. This is an accident waiting to happen...someone falling on their face. It would be better to combine your steps into one single flight and dig into the slope of the ground or gently slope the walk, slightly (1 foot in 50 feet, or 2% slope). Single steps are dangerous especially when you are not paying attention as to where you are standing or walking. As you get older, it is more dangerous for less ambling older folk. Also, the series of steps should have railing to grab. I am only 73 and did a belly flop on my face on MY exposed aggregate step series like yours. When you miss a step going downhill, you dont stop at one. Ask any landscape architect worth his/her weight in senior housing.

    Pro tip, open up a heavy contractor trash bag and sit the toilet down in it. You can usually pull it up around the toilet enough to cover everything, then you don't have to carry it far. Keeps jobsite clean and dry.

  • @CharlesLScofieldJr
    @CharlesLScofieldJr ปีที่แล้ว

    Just to pass on tip I learned recently regarding when you have to remove a toilet to do a floor renivation or as in my case I had to get my main sewer line cleaned out and the toilet in the basement was the only way to gain access to the main line. The plumber used a wet/dry shop vacuum to suck out the water, very little water got on the floor when the toilet was removed. It worked really well, luckily my clog was about 50 feet down the line so they ran the "Roto-Rooter" bladed snake down the line. Turned out to be roots from the tree in my front yard had partily cloged the line.
