FAQs
How do I measure the area I need to cover?
Measure the length and width of the area, then multiply to get the square footage. Remember to account for waste by adding extra tiles.
Can these tiles be used on walls?
Yes, these tiles can be used on walls, provided the surface is properly prepared and clean.
Are these tiles waterproof?
These tiles are water-resistant, suitable for most living areas. However, avoid areas with direct and constant water exposure, such as inside a shower.
How do I remove the tiles?
Gently lift an edge with a putty knife and slowly peel away the tile. Some adhesive residue may remain; this can usually be removed with adhesive remover.
Can I use these tiles over existing flooring?
It is generally not recommended to apply these tiles directly over existing flooring, especially if the surface is uneven. Ensure the existing flooring is perfectly flat.
What kind of underlayment is needed?
These are self-adhesive tiles, and usually no underlayment is required if the subfloor is properly prepared.
Troubleshooting
Tiles are not sticking properly.
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. Apply firm pressure to the tiles after installation, especially at the edges.
Tiles are lifting at the edges.
Check that the surface is completely flat. Use a heavy object to apply pressure to the edges overnight. If the problem persists, consider using an adhesive specifically designed for vinyl tiles.
Difficult to cut the tiles.
Use a sharp utility knife and a straight edge for precise cuts. Score the tile several times before attempting to snap it along the score line.
