When installing rolled rubber flooring, it is recommended that you use some kind of adhesive to prevent the rolls from moving around or sliding apart between adjacent rolls. The most common methods of adhering rubber rolls to the subfloor are:
A: Double-Sided Tape Installation
- First, clean your subfloor so that it is free of all dust, dirt, and debris.
- Loose lay your rolls in the room as you would like them to look after a complete installation. Let the rolls relax for up to 24-48 hours to ensure proper installation of your new flooring.
- Note: Rolls may be directional so make sure the color matches on each roll. If the roll colors do not match, flip them or turn them 180 degrees to ensure color matches.
- Make any necessary cuts to the rolls to fit them into the room using a Straight Edge and a Utility Knife with a fresh blade. We recommend leaving a gap around the rolls roughly the thickness of the rolls being used to account for expansion and contraction.
- Apply double-sided tape to the perimeter of each roll.
- Place rubber rolls back into position on top of the double-sided tape.
B: Glue Installation
- First, clean your subfloor so that it is free of all dirt, dust, and debris. Also, when gluing your flooring down, it is recommended that the subfloor is free of any moisture.
- Loose lay your rolls in the room as you would like them to look after a complete installation. Let the rolls relax for up to 24-48 hours to ensure proper installation of your new flooring.
- Note: Rolls may be directional so make sure the color matches on each roll. If the roll colors do not match, flip them or turn them 180 degrees to ensure color matches.
- Make any necessary cuts to the rolls to fit them into the room using a Straight Edge and a Utility Knife with a fresh blade. We recommend leaving a gap around the rolls roughly the thickness of the rolls being used to account for expansion and contraction.
- Roll up the rolls at one end of the room. Put down a 10-foot long light layer of polyurethane adhesive and unroll 10 of the flooring into the adhesive at a time.
- Repeat this step for every 10 feet of roll length until the entire roll has been unrolled into its desired position.
- After all rolls have been glued down, it is often recommended to use a 100-pound roller on the floor to guarantee good adherence to the subfloor. If a roller is not available, walking on the flooring in small choppy steps may also work.
Keeping your Big Chip™ rolled rubber flooring clean and well-maintained is easy with these simple steps:
- Regularly vacuum any loose dust, dirt, or debris from the surface of the flooring.
- Occasionally damp mop the rolls using a mild soap and water mixture. We recommend using Dawn dish detergent or Tide laundry detergent.
Note: Do not use any solvent or oil-based cleaners such as Pinesol, Lysol, Murphy's Oil Soap, WD40, paint thinner, etc. as these can break down the flooring over time.
