Don’t skimp on your flooring budget – cheap flooring won’t last long and won’t look as good. In long run buying quality flooring will save you since it will last longer. You may be able to save a bit if you install it yourself, however, this can actually end up costing you more as you may use more materials than a professional and it might end up not looking nearly as good! You’ve spent a lot on flooring materials so it doesn’t make sense to ruin floor with a cheap install!

One way to insure you never get bored with your flooring is to choose a neutral tile or hardwood floor and decorate with accent rugs. You can change rugs out per season, or when you get bored with others and you don’t have to worry if one gets stained as they are easy to replace.

3) Measure twice, cut once. Measure room properly so that you get right amount of vinyl. Don’t forget to add in for any jogs in room. Make a template of exact floor using builders paper and transfer that template onto vinyl using washable pen. This way you can get a pretty close cut that you can just fit in.

4) Let your vinyl acclimate. Let your new flooring sit in room for 24 hours before you install it.

5) Follow Instructions. Follow manufacturers instructions for laying floor. Typically, you will apply adhesive to half and roll that out, then do other half. Use a roller to make sure it adheres well – roll from middle out to edges.

6) Refrain from walking on your new floor for 24 hours.
