Quickstep help

Hi guys,

Having a new kitchen.

Units are in and templating for worktop is Monday with it being fitted Thursday.

We are having quickstep lvt but floor fitter has said the the base end panels and breakfast bar end panel ideally should have the flooring running under them as otherwise you'll need beading to cover expansion gap.

Is the best thing to get the kitchen fitter to trim the panels so the floor can be slid underneath?

I suppose ideally they could be taken off , floor put down then put back on. Trouble is I can't get the floor fitted til after the worktop!

Help!

Thanks

Take the panels off and trim them now. Get a sample of the LVT and underlay.

Will try to get a sample Monday. If I can't is it enough to speak to quickstep and get the specs on the floor and underlay?

I have read they advise some red underlay now to help with heat dispersion? Any truth in that?

The underlay is the heat stuff from quickstep 1.5mm and the flooring is 4.5mm.

Would you trim 7mm to be safe?

Also should you apply silicon between the floor and the end panels to stop water getting in?

Thanks

No don’t use silicone. Use quickstep hydro seal.
