Replacing carpet with vinyl or laminate.

I would like to remove my carpet and replace with either vinyl or laminate flooring. My question is, has anyone found a good way to cover the edging or lip of the slide out where it meets the main floor when extended? I have looked at youtube but have not found any real good easy ideas. Thank you

Hi Dan,

I have a 2018 Surveyor we did this also, we ordered a black rubber child protective stripping from Amazon and ran it along the edge of the slideout. This has worked well.

We got tired of cleaning the carpet so often, that we did this. The name of the product off Amazon is called KidKusion, it has adhesive on both sides, you just have to cut to size. Hope this helps! We are happy with ours.

Jim

DW wants to replace our slide carpet with vinyl as well. I have said no because I have not found a good way to get it done. We already have vinyl in the main area. Do you guys have carpet or vinyl on both the slide and the main floor?

Yes, we have carpet on both right now. The carpet easily hides and protects the edge of the slide.
