This guy is awesome
Excellent real life installation where normal “not so perfect things” happen. Very well done.
Thanks for sharing!!!
That was a longest video ever, it takes 55 minutes and 47 seconds, but I still like this video. Thanks for your help Shannon.
Quick question, if you’re stapling the flooring, and it expands in the heat, wouldn’t this make it prone to cracking
Is there anything this man can’t do?!?!?
Shannon your videos are great! Thank you so much for helping me with my diy projects! You are like the ONLY guy who works on my car, I trust you.
Very Informational! Great work on the video
He´s a good teacher,but a very slow worker he wouldn´t make a living install hardwood floors.
If you instal on concrete how do u staple it ?
Excellent demonstration
Shannon, try a palm nailer for the tight places. Thanks for the video.
I love your videos. I did my carpet/hardwood meeting just like u. Remember when u said “ouch”. You can get that with your feet, if u step just right.
Shannon. You should do a video on how to level subfloor using wood leveling strips. It’s a related task to hardwood floors and a pre requisite. There are no clips on YouTube on how to level subfloor using 2 by 3s or 2 by 4s. thanks
Quick question; you mentioned using a 16ga nailer. How long were the nails you used for face nailing? Great video
A real pro, THANKS FOR ALL THE TIPS 🙂
Never heard it called smooth edge. That’s a tack strip where I’m from.
at 45:00, why use an adhesive there where you don’ t use it anywhere else?
For the vents you can use a jigsaw and you don’t have to take measures or waste time.
Best video on hardwood floors I have seen.. Thanks
Incredibly informative video. Great reference and much appreciated !
instead saw saw you can better use a multi-tool which has an angle saw for special cuts
What would be your best estimate at avg # of square feet per hour, assuming no major obstacles?
great video i will use this video as a resource
Canadian
Lay the whole floor out first, make your guts, use your end cuts for starter on next row. If not to short. Don’t get on your knees to lock boards, use your feet and mallet, that’s why you got them.
Wow dude I really liked this video. Installing some flooring and I was hesitant on watching due to the length of video. But got sucked in and really feel confident now about my installation. Thanks for all your time on posting this great video
Super helpful!! Thank you for the post. I earmarked your webpage as well.
