Can paste used to install vinyl bleed thru as 'red' ?
Comments (11)would guess they may have used a latex based patch. WHILE GLENN DIDN'T LIKE CAPS, THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO 'DISTINGUISH' MY REPLY AND IT'S TOO CUMBERSOME TO WRITE A NEW PARAGRAPH UNDER THIS ONE (OR ANY ANSWER) ...ANYWAY I DO REMEMBER THEY PATCHED WITH CEMENT...Your floor I bet is allowing moisture (not moisture that you can see or feel), just a type of vapor to rise through the slab, causing mildew growth under the vinyl, thus staining the vinyl. Some times, this moisture release can be seasonal based on outside temperature. Especially if frost occurs in your area. FLOOR IS IN THE SOUTH - HOT/HUMID..ANY FROST IS ONLY ABOUT 1-2 DAYS AT MOST 1X YEAR A moisture test should be taken on the cement before re-installing the vinyl. O.K.A cement based patch must be used. O.K. If it is continuing to occur, I would bet anything it is home condition and not installation. I am not saying that every precaution or test was properly taken, but I do believe something with that slab is causing the staining. It can at time be tough to determine. I would probably run from it as a carpet store, or i would skim that cement with a quality portland based patch, then use a good loose laid vinyl (Airstep Plus perhaps)...I do believe they warrant against staining from under (which is a foolish warranty IMO). I am not 100% sure on that , but I do know there are some vinyls today that warrant against it. Oh, by the way, Glen's post is right on the money. NOT BOTHERING TO CONTACT MFG - WE DIDN'T PAY FOR THE FLOOR - PRIOR VINYL WAS IN SAME AREA WITH NO PROBLEMS ...SO IF IT IS AN 'ATMOSPHERIC' PROBLEM THAT FLOOR NEVER SHOWED PROBLEMS... thanks anyway ... we'll just let a new store do the job (after checking references)and seeing the paste-bucket with the flooring manufacturer logo 'unopened' !! appreciate all the help !...See MoreWhat colors of vinyl siding and roof shingles are in this house?
Comments (1)The roof looks like Pewter Gray GAF HD Shingles, (Timberline), the windows were painted - or if those are not, then they will be custom, costing an arm and a leg. The siding looks like Napco, American Tradition, in a Pewter or Silver color - but here are their color choices - you can get around their website through this portal -Napco Trad Lap Siding 5" Colors hope that helps....See MoreDo Floorte Alto Mix Gran Sasso Jatoba Vinyl Planks Show Red Colors?
Comments (0)I've been looking for LVT with no red hues, just a medium golden brown to cover 2100 sq feet in my home. Gran Sasso Jatoba seemed to fit the bill so I brought the sample home and looked at it in different rooms and different lighting situations. I liked the mix of widths and lengths and I did not see any red coloration. However, on the internet, I keep seeing various Shaw product photos that make the Gran Sasso Jatoba look more red than golden brown. Example photo below. I'm trying not to panic. Does anyone have a photo of it in their house? I really want to see it in different conditions and lighting. I'd appreciate the help. Thank you...See MoreWhat to do with white vinyl windows and red brick?
Comments (7)Lori, after 30 year my husband is tired of the maintenance and upkeep wood requires, hence vinyl. Not my first choice but I get it (kinda..). The usual light options are white (Great Lakes brand is called “cream” white and has a tad less grey tint) or a beige which is a darker and starts to look dingy and I can’t imagine that color on all those columns.. The only thing I can think to do is try to find a lighter white for the remaining trim (columns, fascia, garage door, but one still warm enough to compliment the brick, and try to trick the eye away from the cooler white vinyl. Would love to use a 3rd accent color but not sure where that would go with no shutters and no solid front door. Would welcome your suggestions! Windows on Washington, I can’t find any brand that supplies a true cream! Would you know of any? Yes, there are other color options, but they are all darker and that worries me with a darker brick. The brick surround will be wrapped, too; are you saying there are more trim options than window colors and try to match the trim to the existing and keep the white windows? Thank you both so much for your feedback!! Much appreciated....See MorePPF.
