WME Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 The way the RV was built means NOWAY. Typically the floor is built first, then vinyl flooring, then carpet in the needed places. Then the walls are added right on top of the floor covering, so the carpet goes to the outside. Cut the old as close as you can, lay down the new stuff and if needed use 3/4" quarter round to neatly edge things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried cutting to the edge and it was a BISCUIT. I've not pulled the walls for the fridge and sink, yet. But I don't like the process of cutting the edge. These pics are the closest shots, but I think you'll get the idea. If you want more pics, I'll snap more tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natalie Posted July 26, 2019 Author Share Posted July 26, 2019 Ouch!!! I was hoping that was not the answer. LOL it is a ginormous pain to get underneath the frame work. Oh well i guess i will take the plunge and thanks for the photos and answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
