Mohawk Uniclic Laminate Installation with Chip Wade

Mohawk spokesman Chip Wade provides a tutorial on how to install Mohawk Uniclic Laminate in your home. In this overview of the process, Chip talks about acclimating your flooring to the room before installation, ensuring your subfloor is in good shape and clear of all debris, and the particulars of choosing and installing underlayment. He also provides techniques for creating a uniform expansion gap and maintaining variation in plank selection for a natural look as you lay your planks.

Showed everything but how to lay the flooring

This video referenced instructions which did not come with my flooring. Where do you get these instructions? There is no link to said instructions in the description. The video was a brief and simple overview. It did not really show how to install the flooring with sufficient detail to be successful at installation.

I really appreciate your detailed guide, Chip! The tips on acclimating the flooring and using spacers were especially helpful.

Have you found any specific tricks for minimizing waste during installation? I’ve been using FloorTally for cost estimates, and it really streamlines budgeting for projects like this. Thanks for sharing your expertise!

Uh the big question is how to connect corners after the first row. Uniclic is pretty annoying trying to connect planks in both the long and short edges!

This guys got big guns! Helps to have muscle because it doesn't just "easily click into place."

First ever negative comment... This was help. Spent more time on prep.. Didn’t get to any real details on showing us the floor installation... Also, The first three rows are the hardest. Would have been nice to see you install.... 👎🏻

[iseverynametakenwtf]

Does not show how to click rows together

Can this particular floor be installed backwards? I have to backtrack into a walk-in closet.

[gileskulaga]

Shows one pic of him doing it and it is from right to left never seen that no help

[ronsanders]

“Click into place”!?!? Mohawk must use the same tolerance as Home Depot for 2x4s because this does not work. And do shims actually work for anyone? It seems something they stage for videos when they are half way done. Everything about this video is misleading.

[lindaherrmann]

this does NOT click into place and it floats apart no matter how hard you try to keep it together...its the worst product Ive ever worked with...Im totally disgusted and would never buy another mohawk floor

[tenthdimension]

The first row is the only row that's "tricky" showing what's comes after the first three rows you've already installed in pointless. 👎👎👎

[censorshipsucks]

This video is crap. It's amazing how he was able to lay the whole floor without cutting a single board. 🙄

[RevisMcElheney]

Showed absolutely nothing about clicking the floor together, WASTE of time

[TheKrekorian]

He mentioned the exact spacing required between the underlayment and the wall, but not the spacing between the planks and the wall, which is even more important, terrible video.
