Masterful Job! Home Depot had a trial with teeth to spread the adhesive...apparently, you just need a thin coat like seen here...I have never done it or even seen it done...so, KZfaq is a great help with the Floor Doctor.

When cutting in walls try placing a full tile ontop of the already laid and cut on the back side follow down the tile pull up the you cut and swap tiles and put full one replacing the one you just cut and put the one you into the gap between wall will guarantee a nice flush fit

Are the peel and stick carpet tiles ok for over concrete floor in a basement? I was told to use uzin 888 to fill in any imperfections in my concrete, does this sound good?

@williamdavid3306 4 жыл бұрын

Yes absolutely. If doing peel and stick carpet tile you'll need the recommended primer and roll on with a nap roller 👍

@JamesTalmageR Жыл бұрын

Do you have a preferred adhesive for vinyl backed tiles over concrete? I am installing in my basement. Also, some of the products I'm looking at allow for rolling with a paint roller. I'm sure notched trowels are better / allow for more glue for commercial applications, but rolling seems a lot easier for someone who's not all that experienced.

@Rock_Shady 4 жыл бұрын

You could use a proper glue trowel? And try just scoring it with one pass of your knife, fold it until it snaps and just cut the carpet fibres. 0 chance of fraying the loops of already installed tiles. I know your barley cutting through them, I just cringed when I seen that I'm sure your carefull but it's still risky.

When it comes to carpet tiles, no padding is required because most already have a backing ( padded, rubber, vinyl, etc) all tiles being different when purchased.

Ashlar and brick bond are different. That’s ashlar

@floordoctor5667 4 жыл бұрын

Richard Moss ashlar and brick are the same pattern. The only differences is which way the direction of the carpet tile is going when entering the room. This is actually a brick pattern. If you notice when entering the door.

@richardmoss9188 3 жыл бұрын

Hi floor doctor. I thought the same as you for years until an old guy told me I was wrong. I googled it and he was right. Ashlar and brick bond patterns are based from the arrows on the back not how it looks when you walk in the room. Carpet planks are always layed ashlar. ➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️ ➡️➡️➡️➡️ ➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️ that is ashlar ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ that is brick Your very good at what you do mate. love the videos.
