Carpet replacement(s) - but with what??
Carpet replacement question(s)? After 7 years of 'fair wear and tear' our 5th. wheel's carpet must go. DW wants Vinyl Plank; i.e. Alure installed everywhere except on the slides where new (upgraded)...

My current advice to anyone taking out carpet on the slide is leave the carpet attached on the front edge and bottom of the slide. I did not and had to go under and attach a seal to the back edge where the slide goes over the outside wall. Until I did there was a large gap all along the slide to the outside that let in every gustof wind and would have provided an easy access point for mice, bugs, etc. I spent a miserable day bent over and twisted up attaching a thick rubber seal followed up with a piece of carpet to sweep between the front edge and the rubber seal. Much easier to leave the carpet and put a piece of molding over the carpet and up over the lip to cover the new what ever surface material.
