In this DIY home improvement video series, I'll show you how to avoid mistakes when installing vinyl plank flooring over concrete in your basement. This is episode 11 in my “Finishing a Room In Your Basement” series. The vinyl plank I'm installing is a floating floor. It's also waterproof flooring, so it's perfect for your basement. LVP flooring is easy to install, it's durable, affordable, and looks great. It can also be known as luxury vinyl flooring, loose lay vinyl plank flooring. These instructions will also work for laminate flooring. Let me show you how to build a room in the basement!
