This is the first video in my RV Renovation Series. In this video, I walk through the full process I used to fix and repair the subfloor and install new luxury vinyl plank flooring in our 2006 Forest River Flagstaff.

The LVP I used came from Lowes. It's called Dockside Hickory. The trim piece reducer for the slide out was also in Dockside Hickory color. Who knew!

MORE ABOUT THIS EPISODE:
Our new purchase had a little subfloor damage but I didn't quite no how much. So once I started ripping everything out I knew I was going to have to replace the subfloor in a couple of main areas. I mean you can't have mold in your RV. So we ripped everything out and started with a new subfloor.

One thing I had to do was add some new framing for support as you walked across the floor. This really made the floor feel more solid and took out the soft spots.

I chose to start laying the new luxury vinyl plank in the bedroom along the back wall (driver's side) and work my way into and through the living room. This worked out just fine. It is a good idea to snap a chalk line to keep yourself on track and lined up with the slide.

//ABOUT ME
By day I'm a Functional Medicine Doctor and Chiropractic Physician. Outside of the office I have a lot of different hobbies and interests. Everything from cycling, home projects, wood working, and tinkering with my F150. I love doing DIY projects and just being a creator. Some have failed miserably while others have been a huge success. No matter the project there was always something to learn from each. There's a certain satisfaction from making something yourself. I've learned so much from other professionals and DIY'ers here on YouTube. This channel is dedicated to helping you tackle your own DIY projects and hopefully taking some of the mystery and fear out of the equation.
