We didn’t do that ourselves! I would ask the store you’re ordering from for advice :)

Hi Molly, the cut edge of the flooring won’t lock in place so you just need to put it under the baseboards :) I cut with the vinyl side down just since I marked on that side to avoid pencil marks on my floor!

That could be! I didn’t hear about that? But we did have a flood in our basement- this room was the least affected and the flooring was just fine :)

I’d ask that one at the flooring store you buy your product from! this one didn’t have cork :)

So if you have cork backed lvp, do you still need an underlayment?

I am also in the US and was told the same thing, that the underlayment is part of the planks and not to use anything else as a barrier. We just finished laying ours down in the basement and I’m hoping it’ll be ok. How did yours turn out? Did you use a barrier?

Hi Diane, I havent been told this! I just took the advice of Home Depot on this one. We did have a flood in 2020 but that flooring wasn’t damaged since it’s floating vinyl so we never pursued a warranty :)

Great tips,but now I am confused about the vapor barrier, we were told by home depot U S, that using a barrier and if there is flooding the warranty is null and void? So they advised not to use

I have 2 questions. One about cutting the edge – I was confused by what you mean by “Cutting the edge you need”…is there a wrong edge?…can you clarify? Second question, I noticed you cut with the vinyl side down, is that a key detail to be aware of?

Thank you in advance, Molly
