The first part of the process requires you to measure out the entire room. The purpose of doing the measuring ahead of time is so that you know how everything will fit. Once you have your measurements, you can start making the cuts that you need to make for each plank.

After you have completed your measurements and cuts, you will need to prepare the subfloor. The subfloor is the layer of flooring that you will be installing the vinyl floor on top of. Make sure there are no cracks in the subfloor and that it is completely level. You may need to sand specific areas to keep it level.
