Watching you trying to pick out a pattern to put those garbage tiles over that plague infused floor was hilarious. You don’t want to disrupt the flow of the pattern or else the tenants might not be picked for Better Homes And Gardens front cover next month.
Dude reading this days ago u made me Crack up ahhahsha I love it. I just wanted to try to match the mess lol 😆 love the comment. U better comment more!!
Dude, I don’t see how people could live that way. Clutter is one thing but there’s no excuse to live disgustingly filthy like that. I worked maintenance for awhile and some of the stuff you run across, all you can do is just shake your head. Love your channel!
Hello from the UK, you get to work in some premier shit tips, love the oven door, filthy dirty too. Hope your injections are up to date. Keep up the excellent work, super content. Nice new van as well 👍👍😊
A heat gun could help soften up the old adhesive and make it easier to remove the tiles. Also, lacquer thinner might clean up the residual old adhesive and prep the surface better.
It's a good idea lol it just scares me cus I did a flooring repair after another company in a big box retailer and the flooring they put down was melting so I wanted to make sure the stuff I put down doesn't affect the manufacturer specs. Crazy stuff I promise!!
When i first bought my house in 07. The kitchen had painted flat paint blue stick down tiles. I could never get it clean. So i put stick down on top of it several years later. Looked good. My mistake was not buying an extra box at the same time. My water heater flooded part of my kitchen. I never could find the exact color tile. Every box was two or three shades darker. I laid it down anyways. Then when the kitchen sink plumbing leaked i just tore all the tile out in kitchen and laundry room which is connected. And was just going to sand the wood floors down underneath and it would match the rest of the house. Well there was like thick black tar paper stuck to the original wood floors. It didn't budge. So i put sheets of new thin subfloor wood down and laid stick down on that. Looks great
I put this same crap in a 1/2 bath for a quick cosmetic update. Looked great for about a month but soon as you wash it and water gets between seams it’s game over. But at least it was cheap. I think you’re better off snaking nasty drain lines- seems cleaner than that dump.
You did a nice job filling where the old tiles came up. Not sure how long that peel and stick tile lasts. It looks good, but the tenants might want to wash the floor and the rest of the house once and a while. LOL
See you finally got a painter’s tool they’re excellent and come in handy for multiple tasks. I have a Hyde that’s quite old but still does the job not to familiar with Husky. Man, man oh man, you are the man!!! I would’ve said thank you, but no thank you and walked out. Honestly glue is unnecessary the grease would hold those tiles down just fine😅 I have to say at the end you did make it look better👏👏
I have like 5 or more I just have to find them I like the huskies cus they have bits for screws in it but yea it's home depot. I was probably better off just sticking it right on top cus I cleaned it so good now it might now stick so good lol
8:37 I'm with ya on that man, should have bought and mop and bucket with Lysol floor cleaner and added it onto the job.. That bottle of simple green did the trick though! Keep up the great content!
I really hate taking these jobs like this. Where investors don’t want to spend money to fix it right. Even if they are satisfied I still hate having my name associated with this Mickey Mouse work.
I use pl max to glue down non porous to non porous materials. I've glued frp to non sanded ceramic tile as quick fixes and it's held up in showers for 5+ years. One note once exposed to moisture it cures chemical so it will work for backslash or anything. I too work for cheap apartment management to save a penny spend a buck but I always have a creative solution in my back pocket. Frp advance maybe even regular frp glue would have been rollable on the floor and throw away the cover. Keep this info in your back po ket never know!
The best thing to use for those tiles is a bonding agent (normally used for concrete). Let it tack up and go to town. I've done it many times and bonds like concrete
Those jobs suck. It's impossible to provide a professional looking finish which eliminates us being able to take pride in our work, then the tech has to explain to the person living there that listen " they ain't paying for this to be right , so don't expect it to look good , the entire floor needs redone to look good and they ain't paying for that " then the tech has to deal with the potential recall or complaint that the job doesn't look good and has to re explain the reasons to the property manager because they themselves don't even understand what a reasonable expectation should be in this case because none of them have ever done flooring. Argghhhhh. Those jobs really suck the life out of me , at 44 years old I tend to tell them no thanks ain't doing it , but sometimes you gotta just take it. I feel your pain.
That’s exactly why they’re building apartments and duplexes in every nice suburb in America. Bring the riff raff in and lower our property values. I remember a certain president saying that exact thing
This is so true 👍 but there is some tenants that keep their places nice than home owners but looking at my vids lol I'm sure everyone will beg to differ ha
It is a toss up what is worse…. Reaching into an ejector pit full of toilet waste to clear a stopped-up pump, or that kitchen? I have a pretty good guess what town you are working in too.
Why can't people don't do at least a little tidying up of the workspace before the contractor comes in to the house? Gotta turn into a housekeeper just to provide the service you were hired to do :(
That’s what cheap ass people pay for instead of getting a heavy duty click and lock floor planks do it one time last 5-10 years if the tenant is hard on it they pay some one to come once every few months….on top of that that looks so terrible I don’t no if leaving them missing looked better 😂 but not your fault stick and run from there lol
i don't know why landlords use this crap. i'm a landlord and we will only use click-lock LVP. the stuff literally lasts forever.....waterproof too. i've dropped screw drivers on it, doesn't even dimple or scratch. indestructible

You def do alot feom the look of things. Leep it up loving your content
Thanks !! I really appreciate it, it means alot!
Definitely ain’t no Taj Mahal mamma! That job is definitely good enough for that neighborhood! Yeehaw mamma
LOL 😆 Love it, u get it thanks!! This is exactly what I was going for!!
Nice job! That was one nasty dirty floor, you think they would clean up before having a contractor come in .
They probably DID cleanup !! Should have seen it before !!
That definitely would have been nice!!
You did great for what you had to work with.
Thanks man I appreciate it, it's rough

Hahaahhahhahahahha u had me laughing but yea lol matters where the money's at I have another vid I'm posting now with a k750 snaking a house

I really don't think it's going to last long I almost didn't post it alot of cutting out. I wasn't proud of it. I'm only saying this cus ur a OG

Lol yea the mop would have saved time luckily it did the trick
Sometimes you just have to do exactly what the person thats paying wants done, and you got er done, good job
Yep u understand!!! Get er done as long as I don't put extra liability on myself Full Send!

I use pl 375 I watch them test it on project farm on utube it tests to 1000lb and it's cheap I was afraid it wasn't going to dry cus it won't breath
The best thing to use for those tiles is a bonding agent (normally used for concrete). Let it tack up and go to town. I've done it many times and bonds like concrete
Definitely a good idea!
usually bonds so well that if you ever wanted to remove them again, it will take a jackhammer to do the job@@thehandymanexperience226
To make those adhere properly…Use denatured alcohol and then an acrylic liquid primer….
Good idea!
That will never stay stuck to that linoleum underneath. Those tiles will move underfoot from day one.
Good eyes, ur right!

Yea I do have alot of pride in my work but after talking to the property manager I was down lol 😆 I'll try my best 👌 hahah no warranty lol
First i though the landlord was ridiculous for not wanting to replace the whole floor. but then i understood completely
Lol u and me both
I'm speechless bro 😳
Hahaha 😆 I know right!! I try not to ask questions
The main reason I only work for homeowners is pride of ownership. If you treat your home like a pos, it will be a pos...

Good job !!
Thanks Michael!!
"What do I do " ??? he says -- Run Forest, run !!!!!!!
Hahahah definitely would have been easier 😅
I would really refuse to do any such work in a filthy place like that.
Yea I totally understand it sucks forsure
easy on the simple green in that kitchen we would not want to make a clean spot
Hahahaahhaa I know right lol 😆
You should use that simple green on the rest of the place!!!! OMG is it filthy
Lol 😆 🤣
This floor job was just too hard on my knees. I'm going to have to take my knee medication now.
Yep that's exactly why I don't do it!!
should have ended it with good enough for this neighbourhood lol
Hahaha got me laughing out loud. I should have !!
2nd note after seeing the smoo under the dish washer i think there is a leak someplace getting under the tiles
I'm sure there is lol 😆 that was some gooy stuff
I would have tried spraying the existing tiles with a light coat of 77 spray adhesive before putting the new one on the existing tile
Definitely a good idea!
Landlord not going to fix it the right way if the place looks like that and not being taken care of.
Yea the flooring was definitely not done right
👍👍
Safety glasses on 😂 How about a Hazmat suit on 😮
Hahahaha 😆 😂
Wow,the stove is as dirty as the floor!!!!! 😱😱😱
Lol I try to look the other way but I might get that metal sticking out I'm my eye
Why can't people don't do at least a little tidying up of the workspace before the contractor comes in to the house? Gotta turn into a housekeeper just to provide the service you were hired to do :(
Yea that would definitely be nice but sadly barley anyone cleans for me :/ home owners r usually on top of it.
what did they use for glue? mayonnaise? That stove and dishwasher was dirty as hell!!
Lol 😆 dude pretty much right ewww
4:36 4x4=12?😂
😂🤣😂🤣
Thanks lol 😆 I'm a idiot and I just realized that now 😅 fast wrong math my bad lol 😆
said it so confidently was so funny
Maybe you can sandblast the stove while your there
Lolllll dudeeeeee hahahhha
Nope! What that landlord is paying is not worth it, absolutely disgusting that people live like that and they are worried about the floor tiles??????
Yep lol 😆 I agree man I wanna bring the good,bad and ugly. I'm glad I could drag u along lol
I’m thinking about buying the same van how do you like the van?
I do love it but it's not as big as I thought it was ill give a better view of it soon
i think it will last a long time
Thanks I appreciate it
hi Brian, what cable size do you use on your k400? Iam thinking of buying one,,,,thanks
I have a 3/8 cable but I'm pretty sure you could fit a 1/2 but I think only 50ft
Sorry but that's FN SAD... Noooooooway Man. Polishing a trd is bout right..
Hey I van make a poop pile pretty just by spray painting it lol it still looks the same but it will be a pretty purple 💜
contact cement would work
Def a good idea
I had to shower with extra hot water after that video, some people have raised trash. PS I wouldn’t ask for permission to film, screw that.
I know I know but I have to lol but 99 % of the time they say yes. They don't care which usually works in my favor
That’s what cheap ass people pay for instead of getting a heavy duty click and lock floor planks do it one time last 5-10 years if the tenant is hard on it they pay some one to come once every few months….on top of that that looks so terrible I don’t no if leaving them missing looked better 😂 but not your fault stick and run from there lol
HHahahajaha yea this job had me feeling some sort of way I was definitely not happy with it but I'll do stick tile flooring repairs all day lol 😆
my two cents worth you should use a small hand roller or a big roller would be better
I should but I am a bit lazy lol 😆
Nasty trap house no wonder the slum lord wants no money put into it
Yea it's a shame but I could see why certain landlord think a certain way
Linoleum floor
Yeppers
i don't know why landlords use this crap. i'm a landlord and we will only use click-lock LVP. the stuff literally lasts forever.....waterproof too. i've dropped screw drivers on it, doesn't even dimple or scratch. indestructible
Yea it's supposed to be just temporary u could see how much the tenant is ruining the property
@@thehandymanexperience226 rental properties would be great if it wasn't for all the tenants. hehe
Wtf, NO,NO,NO GET OUTA HEAR. I'm going home. 🤮🎃
Lol 😆 🤣 yeppers
It is a toss up what is worse…. Reaching into an ejector pit full of toilet waste to clear a stopped-up pump, or that kitchen? I have a pretty good guess what town you are working in too.
Hahahaahah if ur thinking J town your town your right but actually it's right next to it I think haha
