    Vinyl Planks over Cement Board

    Interesting, it is looking like we probably have the gypsum concrete. I think what you are describing looks and sounds like what we have. I'm now considering just filling the holes with the Henry 345 and then maybe putting 1/4" plywood down everywhere. The gypsum concrete under the carpet looks...

    Vinyl Planks over Cement Board

    Hey Guys, hoping you might have some insight on this. Here is a picture of what my floor looks like and what I'm trying to accomplish a little bit.

    Vinyl Planks over Cement Board

    I don't think I'll be able to figure that out without doing a significant tear-up of the floor. So far I've only seen in the kitchen and bathrooms, where it appears to be cement board. In the bathrooms, I built and replaced the cabinets and that seemed to be cement board too. There are two spots...

    Vinyl Planks over Cement Board

    Hello all, First time poster. I currently live on the 2nd floor of a condo with linoleum in the kitchen / bathrooms and carpet in the living and bed rooms. Our water heater just started leaking and am having it replaced as I type this, but I had to tear up all the flooring in the kitchen since...
