Forget the locking products.
Maybe expound on your statements about this.
Because fundamentally it seems the rubber/vinyl based snap lock floatingflooring is ideal for this.
Having trouble seeing the pitfalls in it. Both hypothetically and in real life. As my experience is opposite. Although cheap flooring is not one of my specialties.
Quality glue down LVT or LVP is where it's at! Bad pc simply pull it up and re glue. No buckling and no need to allow for expansion/contraction. Sen a lot of JUNK locking/floating floors.
I saw a lot of vinyl products in my career and these two are the way to go.
Built/remodeled over 100 Dental and Medical Clinics in NW WA and these are going to hold up over time much better.
My experience is certainly not as great as 99% of the residential work I’ve done was before the era of c rap lock flooring. And anything I build if it actually has a floor it’s gray and either hard troweled or broomed, lol.
Although I needed a quick durable solution for our laundry room and slapped down some rubber snap lock from Homie Deport one morning before I had to move the washer and dryer back in. That was 9 years ago and it’s been through 2 kids 4 dogs and sees more traffic than any other spot in the house and frankly it still looks about like new save for a couple hard scratches.
It seemed to have no issue in our last TC either. And it’s just too easy to install.
