this remark is also helpful for me, thanks! But how do the other builders who install the floor themselves do it? So far, we thought that with a "click" floor you can really save money if you do it yourself?! That is the all-purpose weapon "DIY"...
We have about 80m2 of vinyl. The material costs are already about 2,500EUR. What would a professional worker charge for that?
Despite it being a new build, you should expect that the floor needs to be prepared with leveling compound. It won't be the case that you get a perfect screed floor from the developer that you can lay a floor on directly. So you also have to get the material for the filler compound as well as rent tools (e.g., sanding machine).
Don't let yourself get crazy, anything that clicks is really no problem to lay, even for amateurs. Especially in new builds with a very smooth screed.
Everyone wants to secure their own earnings, and it also always depends on one's own standards.
I agree with you, one shouldn't let themselves get crazy in the forum. Get advice ( ) at a specialist retailer, watch a few videos about it and look at your new build, then you can better assess it. I personally will do it myself, just have to think about the best way to lay the entire level with leveling compound. But for us, it is still 1 year away...
