SUBFLOOR AND WALL/DOOR PREPARATION:
Note: DO NOT install cabinets on top of floating LVP. The surface beneath the floor must be
sufficiently prepared in advance to guarantee a successful installation of the flooring.
•
Fill any low spots in the subfloor greater than 3/16 inch in 10 foot span with a Portland
cement leveling compound.
•
Ceramic tile and embossed flooring will require skim coating with a Portland based
patch to avoid bottom up pattern telegraphing.
•
Remove any existing floor molding. Removal of wall baseboards is optional as quarter
round can be installed to avoid baseboard removal.
•
Undercut doorjamb so the 1⁄4 inch expansion space is maintained, allowing the LVP to slip
under doorjamb/case molding.
•
Sweep the subfloor clean. The floor must also be free of all contaminates.
START OF INSTALLATION:
•
Inspection of flooring material prior to installation is required. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to
verify with the installer that they have received the correct product before the start of installation. Any
defects, wrong product, or color should be immediately reported to the retail store from which the
flooring was purchased before installation (within 24hrs of install). The Manufacturer will not be
responsible for labor costs to repair or replace material with defects, wrong product, or color that were
apparent before or noticed at the end of an installation. The job site and all flooring material and
adhesive must be kept for 48 hours before, during and after installation between 65° F and 85° F
(18°and 29°C).
•
Floor must be clean, smooth, flat and dry before installation.
•
Check the tongue and groove to assure it is free of debris or damage.
•
To achieve maximum appearance, mix planks from two to three cartons from the same
production.
•
Tiles and planks may be cut with a small tile cutter or scored and snapped.
The advantage of our LVP Click product is that it allows you to choose your own starting
position, direction and can work one plank/tile at a time. Due to the fact that walls are not
always straight, snap a chalk line for your first row to follow.
