Installing Stainmaster Transition Luxury Vinyl Floating Floor To Carpet

Our house runs long and think it would look so much nicer without transition strips from room to room where there will be lvp only such as between the living room and kitchen family room as shown in this photo taken from the entry way.

This prevents the flooring from being able to move freely as a floating floor is intended to do. Fastening quarter round into the base board and the floating floor another mistake is nailing or gluing the quarter round onto the floating floor. Floating vinyl floors must acclimate for 48 hours in the area before installation. I would like to replace our carpet and tile with the locking floating luxury vinyl planks throughout most of the house.

Failure to properly acclimate will result in joints being difficult to engage peaking buckling and stressing of the joints which will lead to a failure of the mechanism. Floating floors are an easy mess free way to install new flooring without necessarily having to remove the existing flooring. See my flooring install playlist. View loose lay floors.
