I recently installed luxury vinyl planks in my RV and couldn’t be happier with the result. But I had to do a lot of research beforehand to figure out the best option for me, my home and lifestyle. There are a handful of common choices available including carpet, vinyl, linoleum, laminate and of course, real hard wood flooring. But what’s the difference?
Great RV Flooring Types
CARPET
Carpet for me was an automatic, no. However, if I didn’t have pets and also hadn’t experienced a mouse infestation which has tainted my view of motorhome carpet, probably forever, I may have considered re-installing carpet aboard Rhea Rada. I probably would have chosen a heavier Berber carpet just out of personal taste, but there are so many styles to suite everyone’s preference and budget.
Carpet is really cheap to install as well as way easier than any of the other flooring types listed. You can knock out your stairwell with new carpeting in less than an hour; probably not the case for the others that require measuring, cutting and maybe even edge-finishing.
Carpet is also a nice choice if you tend to stay in cooler climates where walking on carpet can be more comfortable than harder floors. Carpets are also friendly to our senior pets and folks in our lives that may have trouble getting around.
The downside, especially for RV dwellers is that you need to have a vacuum on hand. I was so surprised after ripping out the old carpet and then installing my vinyl flooring at how quickly dog hair and debris covers the floor, even with my no-shoes rule. I used to vacuum about once every two weeks. I can’t go more than 4 or 5 days at the most without needing to sweep or vacuum now. Just because you don’t see the debris with carpet, doesn’t mean it’s not all there.
VINYL
Then there’s vinyl flooring. Vinyl flooring can come in cheap squares with sticky backs for ease of installation or you can buy what’s called luxury vinyl planks that mimic a variety of wood types. The luxury vinyl planks not only look like wood but they even have engravings on them to enhance the grain appearance and feel less fabricated.
Vinyl tiling is the best option in wet areas of the house or RV, like the bathroom and possibly the kitchen. For me, it’s also necessary around the dog food bowls where soggy slurps leave their evidence on the floor resembling the Finnish countryside. Any where water might be left standing would be best suited with vinyl because it’s waterproof as opposed to water-resistant. Vinyl tiling has layers of thin rubber with a printed and embossed top pattern. The luxury planks come with a tongue-and-groove interlocking system deeming the entire floor covering to be almost 100% waterproof.
Luxury vinyl planks can either be floating, which means they are stuck together and just covering the floor without actually being attached to the floor or they can be glued down. For locations in your home where there is high traffic, in industrial settings or in high heat climates, it’s advisable to use adhesive to seal the vinyl to the sub flooring below. This is a fraction of added cost, it will add time to the installation but worth it to not have to re-do any portion of the floor once the project is complete.
From my personal experience installing luxury vinyl planks in my RV, even if I didn’t tend to reside in warmer climates that require adhesive, I would do so anyway because with all the little cuts and funky corners and edges that RVs have, I had a lot of little pieces that only had a small area of tongue and groove to attach to. Otherwise there would have been many little rogue pieces of vinyl that would almost be floating on their own. In these cases, I was happy to be using the adhesive.
A downside of vinyl tiling is that it must be directly placed on its sub floor. Other flooring types like hard wood and laminate planks can have extra padding and insulation installed below them for extra comfort.
Also, the tiles and planks are not rigid or thick enough to hide surface imperfections below them. So, if there’s a small difference in sub floor board pieces that don’t line up to be flush and no leveler is used to compensate for the raised edge, this will eventually make its way visually through the vinyl flooring. Exposed nail or screw heads can undoubtedly cause this effect, too possibly puncturing through the vinyl depending on traffic.
Increasingly luxurious vinyl tiling products have certainly changed the former trend somewhat that laminate flooring has a higher resale rate than vinyl but not fully. Buyers may tend to prefer the look and feel of laminate over vinyl. However, in the perfect conditions and compared to laminate without insulation below, resulting in a harder feeling floor, it might be hard to know the difference between the two. Considering vinyl flooring, it would be easy to install carpet or laminate right over the top if a future owner ever wished to do so.
LAMINATE
Laminate flooring is a great choice because the look and feel of real wood is there. Laminate floor planks are easy to install as more modern manufacturers offer a click-and-lock fastening system to the planks. Laminate flooring is almost always installed to be floating. Meaning it is not adhered to the sub floor below. The best part about its floating capability along with its rigidity is that insulation and/or padding can be laid down before the planks are installed above. Doing so gives extra comfort when standing and walking and added insulation to the floor.
Laminate planks are composed of wood composites, including saw dust with a laminated and design-bearing top layer. Just like particle board which is similar in property and make-up as laminate tiles, water can destroy it by causing it to expand into mush. This is why laminate flooring should not be installed in wet areas of the home.
Laminate flooring also limits you to the type of cleaner you can use on it, how you apply the cleaner, you can’t use water to clean it ever and spills of any type must be cleaned up immediately. A specific type of cleaner is recommended and it is better to be sprayed onto the rag or mop than directly onto the floor. That just screams ‘high-maintenance’ in my mind, but it’s a very nice and definitely considerable flooring option.
LINOLEUM
Linoleum became popular in the 40s so think about your grandmother’s kitchen floor, or classrooms in old schools. Do you ever recall seeing chair feet or desk feet kind of sink into the floor causing little waves? Or old diner floors that were always a bit sticky even though they were just mopped? Those were probably linoleum, a very cheap yet eco-friendly flooring type.
Because linoleum’s material composition is predominantly natural oils and fibers, it’s cheap and also friendly on the environment. It’s also malleable and can tear easily. Linoleum stains easily so to keep it in top shape, a linoleum floor should be buffed and polished occasionally. If exposed to natural sunlight, linoleum will take on a yellow shade. The buffing and polishing can remove this as well.
Linoleum can be purchased in sheets and stapled down which, along with its more economical price, makes this a quick and easy flooring. Linoleum tiles are also available and can be ordered in a variety of colors and shades.
HARD WOOD
Wood floors are classic and probably always will be. If resale value is the highest priority, than wood is a great option. However, resale value of wood floors in a house might be more sought after than resale value of wood floors in an RV. Wood floors are much heavier which isn’t always favorable for RVers as more weight only lowers gas mileage. Wood floors will also weigh heavy on your wallet.

As far as durability, wood floors don’t always add up. They must be maintained to stand up to higher traffic and any rugged use. They are naturally porous so they have to be sealed with a polyurethane coating that will need to regularly be applied. Otherwise, wood floors are susceptible to stains and liquids. Depending on the wood type, they may also scratch easily. If you’ve heard of parquet flooring and wondering where it fits into this comparative mix, parquet is a wood floor. It has its own name because it’s not just wood flooring but specially patterned wood flooring. It can come in a variety of patterns.
Carpet, vinyl, laminate, linoleum and wood flooring are all common types of floors and all suitable in their own unique way to bring new life to your RV. Ranging in prices they offer different options as well as properties. It’s hard to say which one is best because they all have pros and cons but really should be compared when focusing on a specific project taking personal consideration into account each time.
Have you recently installed new flooring in your RV or home and have a preference? What do you like best about it?
Please comment and share your input and ideas.
Thats very nice. But we make industrial & commercial floor.
Thanks everyone
Thanks alot for your ideas. Im planning to take the next step to being free in rv living. You be one amazing women . how did you learn so much about handy work? I couldn’t stop watching your very beautiful and i couldn’t stop laughing on the mouse hunt. Please email me back
Best of luck with you RV living lifestyle!
What kind of flooring did you use in RV.
I used Allure and the design was African Wood I think.
How well is your floor holding up? My wife and I are living in a RV and we find your blog’s inspiring. I’ve been considering Allure LVT and am concerned about how long it will last. When did you install and how is it holding up?
We are using Allure vinyl Plank in our house, and the instructions say not to use in RV because it can’t handle the temperature range. Have you had problems with it?
You must use it with adhesive if it’s going to be in your RV. I haven’t had any problems in the extreme temps of the desert.
Absolutely. I recently installed (glued) the Allure Vinyl Planks in my motorhome. Although it’s only been two weeks, I’ve had no ploblems of buckling and the temps here in L.A have been like a rollercoaster. Good luck.
Great to hear!
Pippi, I’m looking at becoming a full time RVer in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I’m looking at Artic/Glacier Insulation packages. One of the ideas I was having was removing the Flooring and placing heated Floor Mat with the tiles above. Of course I will be looking into the Slide/Bump outs how to work that angle. What do you think?
That sounds like a great idea. However, you’ll need to measure very carefully so that your slide outs can slide over the new flooring. Best of luck with it. Let me know how it turns out 🙂
Hi there! My boyfriend found your blog when looking for some info on changing our RV floor – he loves the flooring you used, but I didn’t see reference to a brand or color name….would you mind sharing? Thank you so much!
Kristin
I can’t recall for sure but it might be called Allure. I got it at Home Depot. It was the African print design I think. Best of luck!!
Hi Pippi, Enjoyed watching your RV reflooring video. Just got back from a weekend trip in our 97 Newmar Mountain Aire motorhome and my wife had a real tough time with her asthma and allergies. Even though the carpet looks in good shape after 19 years of trapping dust, sand, dander, mites it has to go. I’ve been putting it off for a few years but your video motivated me to get going. Thank you and I ordered your bumper sticker.
Thanks Mark. You’re going to be surprised how much dust and debris collects on your non-carpeted floors once they’re in. Then you’ll be even more relieved you went ahead and changed them out! 😀
We’re looking to remove the carpet in our coach and replace with vinyl planks. I was looking at Home Depot at the Allure brand. It’s not recommended in campers or motorhome where the temperature isn’t controlled between 55 and 85 degrees. We live in the Phoenix area, so it will get below and above these Temps. Do you have any suggestions on brands that would work for hotter temperature areas? Dede
Yes, you can use that brand or another similar one. However, once you past the threshold for those listed temps, you CAN still use it but you MUST use the vinyl composite adhesive below. You’ll find it in the same aisle with the planks. That’s what I did. I have similar issues with heat and it’s been fine. After using this flooring in such a small space with lots of little corners and edges, I would recommend anyone in a similar sized or detailed space to always use adhesive anyway. Best of luck!
Check out http://www.CaliBamboo.com They have some great choices for RV flooring.
Dax Robinson helped me allot there.
Hi Pippi, this is Daren, im not sure you are gonna get this, can you let me know? I wish I could just send you an email? If this doesnt work Ill chalk it up to not meant to be… I just wanted to share with you what my business is about cause I feel you might really like it and maybe theres something we could do since you have alot of experience with tiny home living etc. I am a venture capital business man and started a company that can take a shipping container and turn it into a home or rental or even for fema emergency housing and ultimately to shelter the homeless and our veterans. Anyway if u have any interest in discussing further hope this reaches you…
Sinc,
Daren
Hi- Has anyone installed Allure with the Adhesive recommended? We live in Laughlin, our Class A is a 1996 Safari and the carpet has to go. My dog comes home with itching and skin flakes every time after travel. Temp in our RV garage can go over 120 degrees, even though we try to escape in the summer. My concern is the extreme heat even with adhesive- any confirmations that it will work Ok?
Hi Maureen, you must use the adhesive with those temps. The sticky tongue and groove pieces that it comes with will not stay together in that heat. My RV has had a lot of time in similar temps with the Allure and adhesive. Anyone using vinyl in an RV (because of all the little corners and cuts and larger ratio of smaller pieces to full size pieces, I’d highly recommend using adhesive regardless of the temps though. Otherwise, you’d have so many small little pieces in, say, the bathroom that were not glued down. You’d be walking mostly on floating pieces. Also, with so many cuts and notches, not all of them will have sticky tabs. Go for the adhesive if you do vinyl and especially if you’re getting those temps. Best of luck!
Hey Pippa, love the video, thanks for sharing! How big is your RV and how many planks did you buy? I’m gearing up to change our floors (each time I watch your video I get more confidence!) but I’d like to estimate the time and cost before I start.
Also, do you have a slide out?
Thanks!
I don’t have a slide out. To get the estimate of flooring you’ll need, take the width and length of you RV and multiply those to get total square footage. Then do a rough estimate of your counter space and anything that is covering the floor where you will not need to install the new flooring. Subtract that from the total square footage and reference the flooring brand’s recommendations. Each box of it will cover a certain amount. Then get a little more if it’s close to requiring so many full boxes. Mine needed I think 5 boxes but I got another. You’ll be creating a bit of waste by cutting panels to fit smaller areas. Those panels can then only be used for scraps and not full floor boards even though mathematically, those scraps put together would cover more square footage. Also, you never know when you’ll need to replace a plank down the road. It’d be nice to have one on hand instead of trying to track the same look again. Best of luck with your project!
I just purchased an 2003 trailer, plans to remodel it. My problem is, I can’t find anyone to handle redoing the floors, and I am not knowledgeable to do it myself, nor do I have the tools. How difficult would it be to cut flooring when I have slide outs and what tools should I get. Really thinking about laminate wood planks.
Most of the things I’ve don’e, I’ve learned because I needed or wanted to do that. If you want to, you can easily install your floors….one plank at a time. By the end you’ll be so knowledgeable! The laminate would be easier in my mind to install than the vinyl. You won’t have to use adhesive below and it should cut a little easier. Get a circle saw for those. Best of luck!
Thanks for the informative post. I wanted to add some information about linoleum as it is actually a good option for RV flooring and your post seemed negatively inclined towards it. The quality of linoleum must have changed or the product you saw was inferior as linoleum comes factory installed in many RVs, mine included. The patterns available are modern and look nothing like the old photo you have posted. Lino comes printed in faux stone/tile and faux wood patterns as well and is very easy to install. I have never experienced lino melting but I have never taken the RV to such hot climates as Southern California.
There are a number of people who have tutorials online for how to create patterns and save money using linoleum tiles. Definitely worth checking out! 🙂
Hi,
We live in a the Catskill area of New York and now use our 2003 fifth wheel for a guest cottage. The vinyl flooring in kitchen has been fine for years, but this year there’s a huge tear. I’m thinking the winter cold was the problem. Would you recommend the Allure with cement for cold climates as well? Thanks.
Hi Faye, it’s not necessary to use the adhesive in colder climates however in smaller areas with lots of notches and tiny corners like RVs, I do recommend it. I have a few pieces in my RV where the small pieces I needed to cut and shape didn’t have any remaining tongue or groove to stick to anything. In those cases, they would just be sitting freely on the floor. That’s why it’s a good idea to use the adhesive regardless of the temps. They do make vinyl flooring where the backside if fully sticky. This would be enough to keep those tiny pieces adhered in cooler climates. Best of luck!
I’m planing a more unconventional flooring for my rv. I’m still ironing out the details of how to best install it and ask for advice on your forum section but once I get the details figured out my carpet will be replaced with leather belts applied to look alot like hard wood flooring (if you stick to “wood”colors like browns or black), or can be applied in bright colors or Paterns to fit your style. Personally I intend to use all faded black leather belts in as many textures as I can find from thrift stores I’m hoping to find things like black leather belts with a rose patern etched in it or a woven patern,more verity the better. My reasons for this is 1. belts should make grate floor insulation so your not stepping onto cold floors when you get up 2. I want something that is suttle on the floor like plain boring black that don’t draw the eye at first glance and instead lets visitors enjoy other more prominent focal points yet at the same time I want the floor to have a suttle originality and texture, like an unexpected suprise, 3. I want something that will last along time with out costing alot and will hopefully add strength to the rv floors. I’m a larger woman and I know rv floors are netoriosly weak as a general rule and I want a flooring that will help me not wear out the floors.
As a Newbie, I am always browsing online for articles that can benefit me. Thank you
Hi. My wife and I have been intensely researching flooring for the past month. We live in northern MN, so temperature fluctuations–from -30 to +100 degrees–together with episodes of high humidity were factors we had to take into account. Dimensional stability was a critical factor. We have obtained information from reps at brick and mortar stores like Home Depot and other stores that specialize in flooring, as well as from factory reps on line. Bottom line: The best flooring for our conditions was LVT glued with commercial grade adhesive. We began by considering Allure and other similar flooring but discovered that everyone recommended against installing it in conditions which may drop below 55 degrees, though some will survive somewhat lower temps. In some cases where the click flooring was installed, the RV owners suffered cracking of the flooring when it was walked on under low temperature conditions. In other cases, using other than commercial grade glue would result in the flooring popping loose in lower temps (which, in our case, we didn’t think were all that low since they were well above zero). I would urge anyone considering flooring to carefully consider the temperature and moisture conditions they can expect and to make a comprehensive investigation before making a decision. FWIW, we finally decided to purchase Mohawk LVT and use commercial grade glue based on the recommendations of a flooring specialist who has installed it in several RVs here in MN. We will be installing it this summer, so we we won’t know until next year how it fairs through the winter.
And, what does LVT stand for?
LVT is short for luxury vinyl tiles 🙂
Hi, thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge regarding RV flooring. My husband and I just purchased 10 boxes of vinyl click planks in the Tuscan Amber pattern. We’re almost done clearing the floor of staples from the carpet, planing and vacuuming. P.S. we also have 2 dogs. After reading your vlog however, we are at a loss as to how to use subfloor, adhesive and click planks! Do we need to exchange the planks for a different type? All help is greatly appreciated.
If you have the more rigid click planks then you don’t need adhesive. With those rigid planks though you may want to take advantage of using a soft foam or rubber padding beneath them to soften the floor up a bit as well as add a little bit of thermal and sound insulation. Best of luck!
Luxury vinyl is not recommended in RV for cold weather climates. According the Manufacturing Reps from Armstrong gaps will develop as it contracts, and the adhesives will breakdown over time. Many new 5th wheels have other products that are now splitting and developing tears as noted above. I was ready to purchase but reps said don’t do it. Apparently it is fine if you have heated storage or in warmer climates. I have researched until i am fatigued as i live in Montana and have put my project on hold.
You can go for engineered hardwood. A better n sustainable option for your RV flooring. These woods are durable and long lasting and pretty much maintenance free.
Hi Pippi,
I had to take my carpet out because of a small flood. Many of the screws stick up just enough that putting vinyl down would cause some of the issue s you mention in your video.
I was wondering if you knew if just getting a drill and screwing them in more would work. I know it sounds like a given, but I don’t know what’s under the plywood. Not knowing how RVs are built or having a blueprint makes me a little nervous.
I was so happy to find your videos and watching you fix up your RV with all the helpful tips and maintenance has inspired me. Now if I were only about 40 years (ugh) younger I might have your energy!
Yes, you can just screw them back in. Because RVs are driven and rattle and have all sorts of vibrations, a lot of things, including screws can make their way out or come loose. Good luck with it. It sounds like you’re doing great! If the carpet is out, that’s kind of the hardest part in my mind. From here on you can go as slow or fast as you want with no heavy lifting. Good luck! 😀
Hi Pippi.
After reading mixed reviews about the Allure brand I’m hesitant about using it in my Rv. I’ve read cases of it buckling and not adhering to the subfloor properly and that it easily scratches. How is your floor holding up?
Thanks
Hi Shawn, when I Installed mine I used a bunch of vinyl adhesive under under it. It’s been great since. I had it over a year with my dog and also use a rolling desk chair on it. The chair has been fine on it as with the dog nails but I do know it’ll scratch when you slide something heavy across it like a three gallon water jug. Also when Andiamo would occasionally slip he’d scratch the floor. It still looks nice though. Go with your gut though. I think Allure might be a little spendy but I’m really happy with my floor.
Hi Pippi!
Really happy to have found your blog. I’ve been researching different DIY flooring options, and your post is by far the most informative I’ve come across. My fiancé and I put a deposit on our first RV (a 2001 Coachmen Catalina) this week, and will be moving into it full time next February. We’re trying to get a head start on our renovations plans, but for all my research, choosing the right flooring for our unit still seems pretty daunting.
We will be traveling cross country year round for my work, with very few extended stays. Obviously, I’m concerned about the long term durability of our flooring with such constant motion and climate change. Vinyl seems like a good bet because of the adhesive you used, though I’d love to be able to add an extra layer of insulation under laminate. Do you think using a material with adhesive would be preferable considering the amount of traveling we’ll be doing? If so, do you think I need to be too concerned about the various temperature warnings for the adhesive? I’m sure we’ll be in both very hot and cold climates (especially since we’re starting out in the dead of winter), but I’m wondering how much I need to actually worry about this since the unit won’t be parked or stored in those environments long term.
Final question- did you use the same flooring in your bathroom, or did you use another option there?
Thanks in advance for your time and insight! I really appreciate your help 🙂
I love my vinyl flooring. It’s easy to clean and has stood up to both extremes of temps with the adhesive. However, you’re keen to suspect the lack of insulation. I’ve found when a rug is down on the ground, underneath the rug is closer to the temp outside. Which means just a throw rug is doing a bit of insulating and where there’s no rug, it’s not! If you went with the laminate flooring you could get the rubber sub mat that provides a bit more insulation.
I’ve got my vinyl flooring going throughout including the bathroom. It seems to make it feel bigger that way instead of having a 2’x2′ space of another type of flooring.
Best of luck and happy trails! 😀
I was watching your video on the floor replacement and I noticed you had a plunge cutter, was there a reason why you didn’t cut the trim with the plunge cutter and slide the flooring under the trim vs. all the time spent on cutting the flooring. P.S. I love my saw/ plunge cutter too. Nice work.
In the RV there is no trim. It’s just the thin wall. I didn’t want to cut through the thin wall and open things up like that.
Thanks, PS the plunge cutter is so awesome for so many things 😉
I’m having problems with my vinyl planks expanding and contracting due to extreme temperature swings. I live in Las Cruces, New Mexico and the temperatures and be 110 in the camper during the day and 60 at night. The floor has a tendency to bulged at the end seams of the planks and even separate. It is a floating floor but I am considering glueing it down to the plywood sub flooring. Have you had any issues with the floor buckling after it has been glued? what are the pros and cons of glueing the vinyl planks down other than being a pain when you need to pull then up.
I have had no problems with my floor glued down and I also live in the desert with extreme temps. You’ll probably have to pick yours up to do this to stop the buckling and expanding. Good luck!
Thank you for all these great ideas! We will be installing LVP in our camper this summer. Which brand of adhesive did you use for your flooring?
I used two brands. One bucket I got from Lowes, the other from HD. You’ll find them in the flooring sections. They both worked great. I don’t recall there being a choice in brands either. Good luck!
We bought Mohawk LVT and installed it as a free floating floor. Big mistake, it buckled and separated. We notified the manufacturer and they said that the temperature extremes would not allow us to use it as a free floating floor. They sent me a gallon of Mohawk M700 dry set adhesive to glue the floor down. we pulled the floor up and numbered the pieces so we didn’t have to recut the pieces. This adhesive worked great and after three week no buckling of separation. One big issue, you have to be smart when laying the LVT because once it is down, it is down, and I mean it is down for good. The adhesive will make the locking tabs very difficult when laying it. I am very pleased with the floor but using the dry set is very very difficult.
Yes, I can’t imagine not gluing it down. It’s worked wonderful for me for over a year now. Good luck with it!
We are seniors and full time RVers. We are going for carpeting our splie out. I went to look at new RVs for updating ideas. All the new RVs had carpet on the slide outs. We why is this??
The vinyl planks are a good alternative to carpet or the vinyl linoleum that used to be installed at the factory. Some newer RV still have linoleum for one very important reason. Weight.
Vinyl planks are heavy compared to some alternatives. When added to the entire floor area, you are talking 100’s and 100’s of extra weight which affects your GVWR and what other stuff you can haul with your RV.
I replaced the linoleum in my Sprinter with vinyl planks. It certainly looks better but I’ll be taking it out. Too much weight…
I don’t even know the way I finished up here, however I assumed this put up was once good. I don’t realize who you’re but definitely you are going to a famous blogger if you are not already Cheers!
Good day I’m a long 20 yr full time rv er I have a 34 ft dreamer fith wheel I bought new in 99 . I shortly after put the laminate floor in . Pad underneath . And I have a dog. Have loved it very much and I don’t move a lot . I left the bedroom carpet . I have to say I stumbled across your videos recently just by me doing projects and reading. It would be awesome to have a conversation with you ! It’s so cool to watch you work and do all that you do that I have done over the yrs of living in the same rv for almost 20 yrs. we could talk for hrs!! Lol name is Shane and I live in Washington state anyways nice job in your floor and I’m looking to change things vynl. Now they have better product than they did when I put my laminate in. Plus I wanta reduce some weight. My floor has held well but as far as floating goes I’ve had a piece or to want to pop up when I first did it. Which I did not like. So it’s time for a change and new look.
so now that its been a couple of years, how has the flooring held up? there’s so much mixed info out there as far as what flooring should and shouldn’t be used in an RV with varying temps, vibration, etc.
The flooring is superb. But like I point out, you MUST use the adhesive when laying the floor.
I agree, it has been a couple of years since I installed my floor using an adhesive and it looks good. Using an adhesive is an absolute must. I do have to say that the install was tough due to the high grade of the adhesive. The direction you install the floor is critical and when you install the each plank it has to be right, it was extreamly hard to pull back up.
Should I install it front to back or side to side?
Hi I have a motorhome needs flooring or carpet depends on prices
After reading about your flooring upgrades I’ve decided to use the allure luxury vinyl flooring. I have slideouts & am trying to figure out what to use as the edging/transition piece where the inside edges are. Thoughts? Advice?
Love ur site!!! Thanks so much!!!
P
Anybody in there? Would be so grateful to hear from anyone!????
Should I install the flooring from front to back or side to side?
We are getting ready to replace the sheet vinyl flooring in our 2001 Aero Cub. I want to do the luxury vinyl plank but my husband is concerned about it separating due to vibrations. We are boondockers so are often on rough, dirt roads. Do you have this issue? Do you drive on rough roads? By the way, we live in Phoenix so also have to contend with the heat when we aren’t on the road.
