One thing I was hoping you might touch on. Does sawdust make the floor slick? I was thinking about this in my basement shop (can't do epoxy while I'm also living here due to fumes) so I was thinking about this as a possibility.

What a terrific review. You’ve answered most of the questions I could think of. Might be a solution for my basement

@PeterPetrakis 2 жыл бұрын

You might need a vapor barrier in a basement depending on how damp it is. Consider going with a straight plank vinyl floor, like LifeProof. It's not that much of a difference in cost and it's going to be way more comfortable than this thing, easier cleanup too. I would also recommend doing the concrobium fogger treatment of the bare concrete to discourage mold growth. Cheap insurance.

Another (and big) reason for not gluing them down is expansion. The plastic expands and contracts with changes of temperature. If you glue it, it will buckle. This is the same reason you need to leave room from the walls on all sides. Great video, I installed a similar product in my garage/workshop. LOVE IT.

Excellent first video and love that you did the follow up. Surprised it was near the same cost as epoxy. I was considering epoxy at one point...but like you said having to go without hot water, and find a place for all my tools... yikes. I could ask them to do it in two halves but I imagine that would add to the cost. Thanks again for the great info

When buying this type of flooring, always get extra just in case. I use the more foamy type in my house and what I have found over the years is the patterns go out of fashion per se quite quickly. The type I covered my basement with, in just 2 years I can no longer find. There are similar ones, but the connecting patterns are incompatible, the patterns are different, the thicknesses are different, etc.

@Lilacs4 Жыл бұрын

That's a bummer but yes good advice. An optional solution to maintain uniformity would be to create a pattern with the new replacement tiles so the color difference looks intentional, like every 3x3 area has the bottom right tile replaced with the new color, etc.

Great and very thorough video series. I really appreciate it. I live in Michigan where we have snow half the year. I'm afraid of melted snow with salt getting under the tiles and not evaporating. I installed very similar tile in my laundry room years ago. We had an overflow and I had to remove the tiles because it wouldn't dry underneath. Those tiles were flat with no air flow system underneath. I will do some more investigation. Thank you!
