    hi Joe

    Attached are the Pics of my Basement

    Have all the Pics taken which you had asked

    I need your advice which would be the best Direction to lay the Planks

    I have added the Pics of my Planks

    Also there are humps and some places the subfloor is sloping, should i consider Sanding the Edges

    Or what should I use to patch fill and level

    You can suggest a date & time to connect for further Review & Advice, I am available anytime this week.

    Thanks Joe

      Above is the link to a video I took to give you an idea of my basement layout

      For now my main concern is how much I I need to level the subfloor

      How to level using grinding or patch

      And what direction I should lay the planks

      I will call you on messenger in some time.

      Do you have a preference for time

      Thanks Joe, I watched the Blueprint Video, It would be really valuable to use as personal guide to install my Vinyl planks every step of the way.

      Very happy to have taken your membership, to make my install in professional way.

      I am still in the prep my floor point, waiting for certain tools to arrive and buy other prep stuff.

      Still some days away before I start my install.

      But really appreciate you having worked on my project blueprint, i can take some time and watch the videos in between my preparation.

      If I have questions will post them along the way.

      Many thanks.

      Mufazal.

        hi Joe :

        After Completing the Feather Finish Patch application

        I watched your Blueprint installation Video several times.

        & then started Installing the Planks

        I have come up to the bedroom door Jam

        Now got confused how to use the cheater board to Install the piece underneath the door jam.

        I am attaching some pics.

        Last row near the door jam is loosely held, just to show you.

    There was in delay in completing other things. That’s why sharing the Finished Pictures now.

    Couldn’t have done it without your Support & Great Tutorial Videos

    Much Appreciate.

    God Bless You.

    Take care until Next Project
