Installing Your Peel-and-Stick Vinyl Tile Floor

[LoveTeeC]

For those who say not to use peel and stick tile: keep in mind that no type of flooring is permanent, and that even real hardwood floors need maintenance. If you feel comfortable using peel and stick, it's a great option for people who don't have hundreds or thousands to spend on flooring. I have groutable vinyl tile in my kitchen, foyer, downstairs bath and garage hallway, and people don't believe me when I tell them it isn't real :). Not to mention that it shows no signs of wearing out.

This video is amazing. Short, sweet and to the point and it looks great. I just moved into a house where the landlord put down white peel and stick in our entry room, and she did it herself with no idea what she was doing. It has polyurethane stains and looks absolutely awful, no matter how much you clean it. I have been wanting to fix it since I moved in, and now I see how easy it actually is to do, I'm inspired!

I love simple explanations, short sweet and to the point.

Excellent video. I just installed these in my Master bathroom. It was pretty easy. I especially like how you demonstrated how to measure cutouts around the perimeter.

LOL, I would if I could! But seriously, the first thing to do is get rid of the fear, plan and dive right in. When I hesitate before projects I'm always amazed at how well they come out anyway. There is also a really great trick for making a template to get your cuts perfect every time; it's just about foolproof and makes the job much, much faster.

Thanks, my white 'marble look' laundry floor is perfect even after 12 months. I did not do spaces for grout due to time pressures and instructions. I used undercoat paint to seal and prime over newly laid plywood to keep costs down :)

I only have a small bathroom with a vanity down one side, if I lay out the tiles from the centre of the room, I end up with a small gap around the edges so I think it will make more sense to have the whole tiles on the open side of the floor leaving a larger gap to the vanity edge, don't need to stagger mine as they have a set pattern so just have to match that. Helpful video though.

You might get to the middle and find you have to cut and fit to the size. Its better to do that at the edge than in the centre and thats why its best to start at the centre and work outwards.

Instead of rolling pin (boring) put some socks on and moon walk everywhere (not boring) 😊🙃

i have done my bedroom, hallway and living room with vinyl looks lovely with a few rugs.

I am confused by where they installed first tile and where I see the chalk line 0:51

[thesby]

now that's what i like! this type of floor is quicker and is less expensive. i could do the flooring myself with hiring a contractor!

Unsealed grout will stain and work its way out. You can purchase a clear coating liquid that seals your grout and tile. Looks great and only needs a damp mopping.

I used just the sticky backing on the vinyl tiles as a entry way on my hardwood floor & it worked perfectly without applying any extra glue!

Man I have heard this voice actor before!! Who is he???

That, and I think you'll find your walls aren't exactly parallel to each other. Framing houses isn't exactly done by master level engineers.
