Fantastic picture. The visual on the floor looks dynamite. Question: Did you lose lay or glue? Do you install yourself? If not, are you paying the installer by the sf or hourly?

Beautiful! Looks like hardwood or laminate from the pictures. Bet you get some “ooohs and aaaahs” from your buyers.

Steve,

The Flexitec looks great! I noticed the other day that they carry the stuff at Sutherlands, so I was able to get a good, up-close look at it. They weren’t nearly so inexpensive as you’re getting it for though.

Keep it up,

semi-loose lay using double stick tape at traffic points. I bought the tool shown in the video for $75, and he says worth every penny. (there was a link to an install video here a few weeks ago- archive search for it)

The guy installing does everything, and I dont pay by the hour - I pay by the job. He figures his hourly and est time, and if a fair overall price, I agree. Then I tell him that if he wants to work faster, Ill still pay the same amount. Prevents milking the clock - and me.

So - I dont know WHAT it cost me for install - the whole job incl flooring, painting, plumbing, ceiling repair, dishwasher install, porch repair, HWT cover fabrication and install, etc etc for $600 labor.

Steve,

Should we be using this? Tom’s about to lay kitchen flooring in #42, maybe we should give this a try?

How much is Steve getting that flextech for? I must have missed that thread.
