How to Install Ambulabo Premium Floors and Tiles Self Adhesive Vinyl Planks
Follow these guidelines to get the best results from your installation
-
Acclimatise: Bring the tiles into the space where they'll be installed at least 48 hours before you start work to let them acclimate to the surroundings.
-
Prepare your surface: Ensure the surface is flat, level and dry. If it's not, the tiles might crack or pop up. Leveling compound can help give the floor a level surface and cover up any gaps or cracks in the existing flooring.
-
Take your time: If you install the tiles quickly without pressing them down firmly, they might not bond well. You can use a floor roller to help get a strong bond. You also want to be careful when kneeling on the tiles you just installed. The tiles may slip or shift, which can cause a corner to pop up. Lay plywood over the tiles to kneel on to help disperse your weight and avoid shifting tiles.
-
Test before you commit: It's always a good idea to put down a few test tiles and wait an hour or so when you're starting a new project. This way you can make sure the adhesive is working well. You may need to make adjustments, such as using a leveling compound or fixing damage to the existing floor. You may also need to wait until the temperature is right in the space.
