Combining the durability of modular tiles with the warmth of carpet, our Carpet-Loc tiles can be used in areas where standard carpet will not make the cut. These carpet tiles feature pegs that raise your tiles above any dampness, and provide space to cover small cords. You will also have a vented surface underneath your tiles allowing instant drainage and airflow. With an easy snap together installation, you will find these tiles in both residential and commercial spaces.
First, clean your subfloor so it is free of all dirt, grease, or debris. Start in one corner of the room with a corner tile and add border tiles outward along the adjacent walls. Add center, corner and border tiles where you see fit. When coming up to an opposite wall, make sure you cut the tiles to fit the area leaving a gap that's roughly the thickness of the tiles being used to account for expansion and contraction of the floor tiles in varied temperature regions. When piecing interlocking tiles together, adhesives aren't usually needed since the weight of the products is usually enough to keep the floor tiles from moving. However, if you do experience movement and would like to ensure that the tiles do not slide at all, you can use some double-sided tape or mat tape around the perimeter of the installation to prevent any movement.
Vacuuming the tiles on a medium setting to remove any loose or dry crumbs, dust, or debris. To clean harder caked-on stains or liquids off the carpet tile, the tiles can be wiped off with a damp rag or can be temporarily lifted and cleaned under warm running water in a sink or tub.
