How to Install Floating Vinyl Plank Flooring

What is the last step to install a floating vinyl plank?

Finishing. To finish installing vinyl plank flooring, replace the baseboards and add floor transitions and additional trim pieces, like shoe molding, if desired. Be sure to nail the trim pieces to the wall, not the floor.

Is it better to glue or float vinyl plank flooring?

Floating vinyl plank floors are a great choice for bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and bedrooms. If you are laying floors in a large and expansive area, a glue down flooring application can provide more durability. Of course, glue-down applications are appropriate for smaller rooms as well.
