Remster 30 #51 February 19, 2008 QuoteAlways the critic. Did you get all of the humps and bumps off of the old floor? That laminate will eventually tell on you if you didn't. Just to make sure, I'd lay a thin set of self leveling compound.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

efs4ever 3 #53 February 19, 2008 Quote I think efs laid that floor down temporarily until he got ready to lay the new tile down. A man's got to use the toilet in the meantime. Correct. It didn't take long, and It's kind of an experiment to see how long it lasts. I have the tile ready and waiting to be put down when the laminate goes to hell in a hand basket. That may be years, however. The floor will come up without a fight.Russell M.

Laminate flooring is not the best choice for a bathroom floor. (Especially where men are involved). Doesn't handle moisture very well. That's why I believe he said he's got tile standing by to replace it when needed. I'm thinking it'll be sooner, not later, we'll see another video on the subject....ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen hotels with Laminate on the floor, and it holds up well. There's no glue. I'm trying to seal around the edges. I try to mop up when it gets wet also.
