Can I DIY install LVP flooring in this basement?
Hello,
I recently purchased a home and immediately tore out the gross carpet in the basement. I’d like to lay LVP throughout as part of the renovations, on its current state, can I do this here?
My main concerns are the existing flooring that’s covering most of the floor, and the also a dip near the back right corner where there is a floor drain.
Do I have to remove the tile already on the floor first? It is only a few mm thick, very thin difference between the areas with and without.
And what about the floor drain? There is a slight dip that was noticeable when the carpet was over the drain, will this be ok?
Do I need to also lay a moisture barrier first, even if the LVP has an under layer?
Thank you!
