@Jay-it3ze honestly that’s not the biggest problem. No underpaid is my problem. It doesn’t matter if it already has one attached. That’s not good enough. It will creak and crack when you walk on it, and will rot the floor underneath because it’s no moisture barrier in between. I’m no professional but I’ve done a ton of research on it and I feel confident I can do it. I’m waiting on my flooring to be ready now.

If you watch closely you'll see a black underlayment on the planks, they come with it pre attached so you don't have to lay anything out ahead of time. Btw don't use this guy's video as a guide he's making a ton of mistakes. I'm no expert but I can clearly see some glaring issues with his methods

I try to scrape staples and sweep first at least dang. My stagger is at least the width of the plank. You get a repetitive noticeable pattern with the simple 3 plank stagger, I try and do more random stagger not so noticeable to the eye. I lay plank and carpet everyday though and stick to my liking 😊

A 11+ years flooring installer here. First check the flooring moisture. Use a floor grinder to smooth a little bit the wood subfloor. Use Planipatch to level the flooring ☑️Use a Moisture barrier. And get -Flooring spacer- just bc the floor "expands and contracts all the time.

Honestly bro we are going to have to agree to disagree on your last comment. I done seen some jokers not even run flooring under door jamb. They just notched the flooring to butt up to it and caulk it and that’s a big no no. This kinda work isn’t for everybody. It’s not just about the money that you can make doing this, at the end of the day it’s about doing it right. I’ve seen plenty of things that people have done that they should be abolished from this field for. We take this work serious over here and I like a lot of elbow room and it’s not enough room for people that are playing doing this
