I have an l shaped kitchen.
Luxury vinyl plank l shaped room.
What direction to install my hardwood floor.

The estimator will account for waste but a simple room like mine will have very little waste.
This was my first time taking on a luxury vinyl plank flooring install and i would definitely do it again.
So if you re installing vinyl planks in a 12 foot by 18 foot living room run the planks.
If the room is narrow such as a hallway a corridor or a long kitchen planks should run the length of the room.
Material costs for luxury vinyl plank prices are comparable to ceramic porcelain tile but with tile you must factor in the cost of additional materials thinset and grout plus tile specific tools.
The plan for an l shaped room is not very complicated.
The problem is the trim is cherrry wood colored.
Step 2 spread a foam vapor barrier over the subfloor.
A helpful guide for determining the direction to install your hardwood laminate or luxury vinyl plank flooring.
In the same vein it s typically recommended that planks are installed parallel to the longest wall of the room.
Staple this barrier to wood and glue or tape it to concrete.

Step 1 spread floor leveling compound on the subfloor to seal cracks and seams and then sand the floor flat with a belt sander.
