I have no idea what im doing and I messed it up, tips for next try?
So, im a general contractor on the side but I usually only do plumbing and electrical. A buddy of mine needed this job taken on but I had no idea how to lay vinyl flooring of any sort. I was given a brief explanation, watched a few videos and gave it a shot.
On top of the jagged edges and the wrinkle type things in the floor, while laying the flooring down we did attempt to flatten it with scrap wood about 5 times over, there's no part of it thats sticking up but if the light hits it right it looks horrible.
They said its okay because its a rental, but I do not like performing sh*tty and making myself look like quality doesn't matter, as a homeowner or renter I would be absolutely pi**ed to see this as a floor. What can I do to make it better for my next try? Thank you all and go ahead and cook me in the comments its deserved lol
