Best Shop Flooring | Dream Shop Ep7
I partnered with The Home Depot to put an awesome floor from Husky down in the shop! It installed quickly and offers everything you'd want in a shop floor: oil and chemical resistance, some cushion for tool drops, looks great, and REALLY helped cut down on the echo in the shop! This video was sponsored by The Home Depot's ProSpective Tool Review Program. #homedepotpartner #thdprospective

Great looking floor! My stepson is putting a work out room in his basement and bought some real thick rubber mat to put down in case he drops the weights. He brought some over to have me help him cut it down into 4" strips. We cut 6 of the 8 strips with a razor knife before we thought about using the band saw. It took us over an hour, but would have only taken about 10 minutes had we used to band saw to begin with. LOL

Super flooring. I have used the same thing but in a lot smaller area, like in front of my work tables, not a whole work shop. Nice touch. Good luck with the new shop upgrades. Stay safe sir.

Great video Caleb! The floor looks awesome! Guess I'll have to add those tiles to my "wishlist"! 😁 Again, really appreciate you explaining what you are doing and the why behind it. LIked the "these boxes are 80lbs together".. then applying mechanical advantage to move them to the shop (a 4-wheeler is just a fun powered dolly, right?🤣).

Roller knee pads/blades are also useful. Hopefully you used some hearing protection- all that mallet pounding and echoing. For such a big job you could have used a tamper- like that for soil and gravel. Saves on the knees and back. Looks great! Good job!
@YouCanMakeThisToo

Ohh, never thought about using my tamper. Not a bad idea. Some the tabs are finicky and there can be some adjusting the tiles as you get them going on so not sure if that would've really worked or not.

@@YouCanMakeThisToo Doh! Didn't think of the tabs being too problematic. Figured that "persuasion" from brute force would knock them in, but you're right- not adjusting as you go along might ruin the tile or adjoining tiles.

Are the tiles comfortable under foot? I have foam tiles throughout my small shop walking areas, and aside from buckling you mentioned, I like that. Your tiles look more rigid.
@YouCanMakeThisToo

They are! They're not anti-fatigue, but definitely have some give and are more comfortable than the concrete. The diamond plate isn't enough to be uncomfortable.
Looks Great but how is it to roll heavy mobile tools and not heavy tools, does the diamond plate make it hard?

The only thing I’ve rolled across it so far is my bandsaw. Which did fine. It is kinda bumpy of course, so small wheels are gonna introduced some shaking. I’d bet any wheels 3-4” or bigger won’t notice.

Why did you choose the vinyl flooring over other methods? Did you consider condensation between the concrete and the new flooring? By the way it does look great!!
@YouCanMakeThisToo
3 жыл бұрын
Thanks! It's "vented" on the underside so air and moisture can move pretty freely, doesn't really trap it. Also, with my dual 18,000 BTU mini splits.. the environment is going to stay pretty stable, there won't be much fluctuations causing condensation. Also, it provides the protection I want, helps with sound a ton, is easy to install, and if something gets damaged.. easy to swap a tile.
Highly recommend Kangaroo mats. Check em out. Best I’ve found.

What did you apply to the concrete before the leveling mix, it was a pink liquid?

Caleb the whole workshop is looking amazing but how did we go from sprayfoam problems to putting the flooring mats down! What happened to the video of you not only fixing the sprayfoam walling but also installing the walling board's etc? Feels like we missed a big step in the process of doing the workshop 😕. That said it's looking pretty darn good and as always brother 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.

Have you tried sweeping up sawdust? Will the bumps mess up the bristles doing their job? Had the cushion mats in my shop and got rid of them because the broom would “grab” the foam mat and not slide across. I know yours are hard, not cushion like, but is there a difference?
