    You basically made your own vinyl flooring sheet. Great idea. Cause you can use whatever type of flooring you want.

    Hello! I'm so glad I found your videos on this. How did you do the slanted edge towards the original carpet in the doorway? (I think this would normally be done by a 'transition ramp')?

    • @IdaAlexis

    Thank you so much🙏 I’m glad that I discovered your channel.
    I have 3 dogs and I’m exhausted of cleaning the carpet and changing it every 3 years. It’s begun to cost me a lot of money.
    I have stairs in my condo, and if you have any suggestions about how I can install it?
    Thank you 😊

    • @IdaAlexis
      @IdaAlexis  Před rokem +1

      Hey love! Thank you for watching 🙏🏼💙 You can install stair treads which protect your stairs from mud, dirt etc. Here's a link to one option www.llbean.com/llb/shop/506645?originalProduct=125885&productId=1817873&attrValue_0=Blue&sku=1000094403&pla1=0&qs=&gclid=Cj0KCQjwxveXBhDDARIsAI0Q0x1adS9Z3jhdE5rAEWulntMpk3rdbBGmiCiiwCKGhEgWUtc9a5v9s0AaAjy4EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds&SN=reczonetest_02&SS=B&SN2=floatsbtest_04&SS2=A&SN3=floatatbtest_04&SS3=A.
      You can also install a stair runner over the carpet. We used a clear plastic stair runner in the building hallway to protect new carpeting.

    • @IdaAlexis
      @IdaAlexis  Před rokem

      Hey love, thank you so much 🙏🏼💙 I wouldn't recommend if its too thick. The tiles won't lay as flat and it won't feel sturdy when you're walking

    Would you recommend the poster board for wood and tile sub-flooring as well? I am about to move to a rental house with this unattractive cherry colored wood flooring and are looking for an option.

    • @IdaAlexis

      Hey girl! Yes, definitely recommend and this would come out even better if you don’t have carpet. The poster will prevent any glue/residue from accumulating on your floor💗
