Step by step tutorial: How to install self adhesive vinyl wood flooring.
These are the basic steps:
1 select your flooring.
This step sound logical,
but trust me, if you dont know
what you are installing, you
also don't know what you
you need...
2 Remove the old flooring
and imperfections. Vinyl
flooring is very thin so
everyting will transfer.
make sure is cleaned and
free from nails, debris and
such.
3 create a line in the
middle of the area.
This will help you center
the flooring. You can also
use the longest wall that
will be visible as your guide.
Remember walls are
surprisingly not straight
all the time, so after you
mark a line, check for
"squareness"
4 Place your full
pieces first. This
way you will save
on materials by
maximizing the
cuts you will make
and reusing cut
pieces.
5 After you are
happy with your layout
you can start placing
the vinyl.
Start by adhering
the main line first,
making sure they
are inline, and every
butt joint is tight.
this way you will
avoid your layout
going sideways!
