BUYING TIPS FOR VINYL FLOORING

Some products are designed to help you reduce subfloor preparation costs

Next to ceramic tile, vinyl flooring installation demands properly prepared subflooring. Many of the printed cushion vinyl products are very thin. When they are installed with a full spread of adhesive over a poorly prepared subfloor, irregularities can telegraph through. Products designed for perimeter installation will greatly reduce the effects of subfloor irregularities while lowering subfloor preparation costs. In fact, many of these products can be installed over your existing flooring.

Special Considerations when choosing sheet vinyl flooring

Asphalt staining or dragging heavy objects across the floor can result in permanent damage to vinyl surfaces.
