Topic: How to easily install a wood-look floor that does not deteriorate with water in the kitchen or bathroom. Contents: In this tutorial, we show you how easy it is to install this VLine WPC in click system. You will learn with us how to calculate and cut the slats, how to place them in click, how to overcome the most common obstacles in a room (movement, radiator pipe...) and how to place all the trims so that the finish is spectacular. The floor we installed is a WPC (Wood-Plastic-Composite), that is, a composite of wood and plastic, the wood gives it consistency and the plastic makes it perfectly withstand humidity. In addition, the vinyl surface layer perfectly reproduces both the appearance and the texture of the wood. As it has a wooden base, it does not trace the shape of the old tiles. Then you do not have to cover the wounds. Only if your floor has a slope greater than 2 mm, you will have to apply a levelling paste. Slopes or imperfections of less than 2 mm are absorbed by the EVA foam base that we place as insulation and that provides us, in addition to comfort underfoot, thermal and acoustic insulation. Once the insulation is in place, we can start laying slats. It is important to do the layout without forgetting to place the wedges to respect a perimeter expansion joint. Also do not forget to place the tongue and groove towards the outside so that you can click with the next row of slats. Distribute the cuts ensuring that most of the pieces of slat are longer than 25 cm to guarantee the stability of this floating floor. As you can see, we cut the slats with a simple cutter. Juan continues placing slats and explains how to act when you reach the jamb in the corner, the heating pipe or at the end of the installation, next to the wall. And finally, all the finishing touches: the meeting with the door moulding, the placement of a transition profile to the floor of the adjoining room and the skirting board or plinth. If the installation seemed easy to you and you fancy having a wood-look floor in the kitchen or bathroom, all you have to do is choose the finish you like best and get to work.
