I realize this is not a new video, but I wanted to ask you Christina, were you worried at all about the floor getting damaged from the slide coming in? I would love to do this in our camper, but am afraid of the slide out damaging new flooring. We have linoleum flooring, but there is this strip of carpet right at the front of the slide out, I've seen so many people take that out and seemingly it didn't hurt anything, or change the way the slide out works. I would love to take that out, there is carpet in the slide out and just that strip in front of it, the previous owners had 3 dogs, as you can imagine what the carpet looks like. :O/ I love your videos!! You do beautiful work!!

Nice work. Looks great. I’m curious if you have had any problems with the flooring buckling or joints opening up as it expands and contracts due the the wide range of temperatures it has to endure.

I have a suggestion for you on the safety front. You really shouldn’t wear loose fitting, extra material hanging, shawl thing while your operating machinery. If for some reason you leaned over to look at something that you’re cutting, that hanging amount of material could get caught in the spinning blade and pull you into it. You don’t want to do a follow up video on that.

3 years after this was origially posted I am wondering how the vinyl flooring held up? Vinyl and laminate flooring expands with warmer temperatures and contracts with colder temps. Its not really designed to be glued down, but to be a floating floor allowing the expansion and contraction. So just wondering how its held up?

It kills me to see so many DIYers removing carpets without a respirator on or even a simple mask on. COVID or not, removing carpeting especially in an RV, you could potentially breath in mold and lots of other junk. I am a health care worker and I have a patient that has had lung issues for decades just because he ripped out carpet in his first home without a respirator! What he saved in installation fees didn’t even cover his first doctors appointment or his monthly copay for his 3 inhalers he uses monthly. Please everybody use protective gear!

Have you had any issues from gluing the vinyl plank down? In a regular house, LVP is supposed to "float" to allow for thermal expansion/contraction, but in a camper getting pulled down the highway a free-floating floor might not work out so well, so gluing down makes sense. Just curious how it's worked out over these last several years.

It appears you simply layered the new LVP over the the old vinyl flooring. Was there a reason for not removing the old vinyl when you removed the carpet? Did your installation over the old flooring leave a noticeable bump in the floor? How well did the adhesive stick to the old floor?

A few staples? How lucky you were! Our Keystone Cougar had a gazillion. Once we removed the carpet we discovered a serious corner leak on one end of the slide that had developed mold. After treating it, the base floor still seemed firm and did not need replacing, thankfully. That is why RV's should NOT be carpeted. We replaced the main floor area with the recommended underlayment and vinyl planks in, the same color as you used, and loved the new, clean look, intending to the finish the bedroom later. Then the really sad part came: After only 9 months, the planks began buckling and splitting in four different places. We've spent the year in an Ohio winter, but kept our rig warm with heat lamps below, a sturdy skirt, and dehumidifier to minimize moisture. And we haven't been in motion. Now we're going to remove the planks and try vinyl stick & peel tiles. Good luck with yours. Wonder if anyone else experienced a similar problem?

I’m an advocate for Krud Kutter! It made removing wallpaper in our 1961 home far easier! We also made over our 1988 camper . We thought the carpet was tan and we even cleaned it just to get rid of the smell until we could get our flooring to replace it. It made no difference. So we ripped it up and found that the carpet was actually a very light blue, not tan. 🤢

I too am glad I saw this video. I had a leak on my pull out which I didn't realize was there until I pulled the rug up but I was wondering what to do to cover the edge of the pullout. I only have one critical issue. When you were using the saw for trimming you were wearing clothes that were loose fitting. Not a good look around machinery that can pull you in. That is how farm accidents happen. Coveralls are the way to go.
