not so pros

[Czed]

Yep. Most of the stuff for flooring we were looking at was .90-1.25 a sqft. I'm not sure what will be more forgiving a single sheet or planks?








Looks like a few of the seams already had some type of filler.

Would really hate to have more $$ in the underlay than the new flooring.

Single sheet more forgiving on uneven subfloor, no seams. We were going to do linear tile but out floor joists weren’t even so not an easy fix and we would have had more in subfloor than finish floor. That’s why we went real wood.

Evening fellas

Got the cabinets and old floor mostly out.

Now to figure out what to do with the old sub floor...

3/4 mdf over 3/4 plywood. Do I try to replace the bad mdf boards or just cover them with something.

Pretty sure I'm just gonna do 1 sheet of vinyl on this side of the house.

I'd rip that chit out. MDF sucks... period.

One small leak, you'll be tearing it out and wishing you had done it when the place was gutted.

Agreed but when your poor
It'll do lol
By far this advantech is the best flooring or any use material I've ever seen.
It'll discolor but not rot
I've had a bench outside for 5 year's
Still no rot.
My friend builds commercial buildings
And home's for off the grid wackos with it.

Allure is more like $2-3/ sq ft. But the shìt looks awesome when it's done. Happy momma.....

Vinyl plank will lay nicely over an uneven floor as long as it's nothing too crazy.

That was kind of what I was thinking.. floors are all pretty flat still, just high spots from old water spills etc..

Yeh. Still puzzled as to why gramps put the mdf on top of the plywood?

They're all a buncha reality crackheads. I've never brought a sledgehammer to a remodel. Why in the hell would I wanna pick a bunch of small pieces off the floor?

I've seen two kitchen floors destroyed from leaking ice maker lines. Both were expensive repairs and both were MDF/press board underlayment.

No way I'd use that crap. I'd sooner use OSB if money was an issue.

1/2" OSB is $17 and change right now around here....so it's not exactly cheap any more.
