Steps in Installing Vinyl for Your Floor

Vinyl tiles are nice things you can use to decorate your floor. It is also affordable. Installing vinyl for the floor can be done on your own as long as you study the steps carefully. Vinyl is best for houses when you have plans of remodeling your house after a few years. There are two kinds of vinyl tiles for the floor. The first kind is the one where you have to put adhesive so it would stick on the floor. The other one requires you to utilize staples on the seams. The first variety is the vinyl sheet with less quality. It is the best choice if you don’t plan on staying in that place for a long time.

1. The first step on how to install vinyl flooring is preparing your floor. Make sure it is clean before installing the vinyl sheets. The floor must be smooth so applying will be easy and even. The rough spots should be made smooth. You can check for this by using a flashlight. Another way you can check for such spots is utilizing a straightedge. You should hold it focusing on the floor. Turn on the light from the straightedge’s rear. The light will filter out the spots that aren't smooth. For wooden floors you should make the floor even by patching it out. You may also need to seal up certain areas of the floor before putting the vinyl sheets. You should always make sure the floor is clean before putting the adhesive otherwise it would not stick on securely. Cleaning also reduces the chance for ruining the vinyl sheets.



2. The second step on how to install vinyl flooring is checking your moldings. The flooring should be able to slide underneath each molding. You can also trim them so the sheets will fit much better. You can trim the molding by your door by laying a hard board on it and using a saw with fine teeth to cut it. Then to take out the trim you can use a screwdriver and a small knife. You start the process by nailing a quarter round to the hard board and then sliding the knife between it and the trim. Put the screwdriver between the knife and the trim and let it loose.

3. The third step on how to install vinyl flooring is putting the sheets. Always remember to maintain at least one over sixteenth inches of space between the sheet and the floor when u stick it. This will be the room for the possible contraction of the sheet. You can have this secured by putting an under-layer sheet by using nails of at least six inches in height.


4. The fourth step on how to install vinyl flooring is sanding the edges in which the sheet will have contact with. This helps to get rid of the rough areas.

5. The fifth step on how o install vinyl flooring is laying the sheets. You should be unrolling the sheet one at a time because it should be kept higher on the other end to make application easier.

6. The last step is making sure the sheet is secure then gluing the seams. Pull a single edge and use a masking tape to put it back again. Use the opposite edge to put a mark by using a pencil, this way you can pull it back. Put it back again by using the tape.
