I want to show you how easy it is to install vinyl tile yourself. Unlike laminate, or hard wood, you won't need a lot of special tools, or a ton of time. It took Joseph and I about 7 hours to install the tiles from start to finish, which isn't bad, considering the bathroom also contains a laundry section.
Prep Work:1. Rip out previous flooring and scrub free of debris.2. Draw a grid on the floor with a pencil.
Install:3. Measure and cut tile according to each size space on the grid.4. Apply glue with a spreading tool.5. Peel off the back of each tile and stick.

Using the glue is a great way to make sure the tile is there 'forever '...just need to say that if any of the glue comes up between the tiles you need to clean it with a glue remover, which is hard to do. The residue just collects dirt and dust, car hair, whatever gets on it. I finally used WD40 to successfully remove the residue. If someone has an easier way, let me know. I did my whole house, 1750 sq ft and need to wait till spring so I can have the windows open because of odor.
