Title: U280 gets a new floor
Post by: kimosabe99 on August 11, 2020, 09:28:14 pm
I took some time last month and installed a vinyl plank floor in my Grand Villa.  The time consuming part was the carpet removal, staple pulling and prying out the tack strip.  Here are some photos:

Nice,, very nice looking floor.  I'm not showing this to the DW cause she wants hardwood and I like soft, cushy, warm carpet.  We don't do shoes in the coach

JK this is a very deceptive post. You've made it sound so effortless to replace the flooring. I've been working my butt off all week and can finally see the end. You forgot to mention the hundreds of trips to the miter saw, table saw and bandsaw. Your flooring looks great. Also all the other stuff you find along the way that also need attention. Strip this paint that, etc,etc. What a pain. I would rate flooring in the top five thing I never want to do again. Now I get the pleasure of putting the couch and dinette set back in. Been non stop fun. Will take months for my knees to recover. No carpet will be worth it in the end. Again great job.
