Do you have something for the edges?
We do not offer separate edge pieces for these tiles, however, on the sides that have exposed tabs, we recommend cutting the tabs off with a table saw or tile cutter.
Was this helpful?Can you lay these tiles on dirt
Yes, you may lay our Naturesort Deck Tiles - Terrace (4 Slat) on leveled dirt. However, for best results, we recommend installing the tiles over concrete to ensure they stay interlocked and do not sink into any softer subfloor surface.
Was this helpful?What do you recommend to cover the raw edge of the tiles?
On the sides that have exposed tabs, we recommend cutting the tabs off with a table saw or tile cutter.
Was this helpful?Can these be installed over brick tiles that are a little uneven?
The more level a surface is, the better to ensure proper interlock.
Was this helpful?Is the flooring stable in high wind conditions?
Yes, the tiles are heavy.
Was this helpful?We have a large wood deck and would like to use these tiles to dress up the pressure treated (yet solid) decking. My concern is warping because it is approximately 400 square feet and if the New England winter would cause breakage?
Deck tiles are designed to be weather resistant.
Was this helpful?I plan to install these tiles in a glass enclosed sun room with a swim spa inside. This room is not cooled or heated but gets very warm and humid in summer. Temperatures get above 100 degrees and 100% humidity. It also gets a lot of water which should not be an issue. My present flooring has swelled and buckled. Will this product stand up to the high heat and humidity? It will be installed over concrete.
We do not recommend installing our deck tiles in an enclosed spa/sauna like area.
Was this helpful?Can this be installed over outdoor carpet that covers wood on a front porch. The porch is not level so am also wondering if that matters.
Deck tiles are recommended to be installed over level subfloors to ensure that the tiles stay interlocked together. If the outdoor carpet is a low pile, that could work.
Was this helpful?how to trim out or finish the edges when the space isn't perfectly square?
You can use any type of saw to cut these tiles to fit.
Was this helpful?can these tiles be installed over asphalt
You can install these tiles on a solid, flat surface such as asphalt.
Was this helpful?do tiles get hot in sun? Can you walk barefoot on them if in direct summer sun?
The tiles can get warm in direct sunlight similar to other floor types.
Was this helpful?I have a concrete patio that does not get much sun so it turns green and black. Does your product turn different colors from the weather? Does it mold? Does water run under it? Can I put a picnic table on it? Thanks
The tiles are fade resistant and should not change colors and will not mold. Water can run underneath it. You can put a table on it.
Was this helpful?Do the tiles get hot in the summer? I'm looking for a tile to lay over a concrete patio for my kids to play on, but if they are going to get super hot in the summer this may not be a good solution.
The tiles can get warm in direct sunlight similar to other floor types.
Was this helpful?Can you put them on top of pea gravel?
These tiles are recommended to be installed on a dense, level subfloor surface that will have little movement underneath, such as concrete.
Was this helpful?When installing on a flat roof, would you need to use some type of adhesive to keep it from moving? If so, how would this affect its' ability to drain?
Any deck glue will work and will not effect the drainage.
Was this helpful?Would this product work on a bumpy roof terrace that gets rather slippery when it rains or snows? The roof terrace has multiple pitch lines and it's surface feels like the way most campgrounds do under a tent, very wavy. So our concern is that the snaps on the tiles would pop open when someone walked on them or you put furniture down.
We recommend installing Naturesort's Deck Tiles over a flat, hard surface due to the interlock used to keep the tiles together. If there a lot of peaks and valleys under the flooring surface, the tiles will have the potential to separate creating a tripping hazard.
Was this helpful?How well does water drain from these tiles? Should I have concerns with mildew underneath?
These tiles are great for drainage and should allow water to dry underneath.
Was this helpful?What do you use for a border, I see straight pieces in the pictures, and do you have a bullnose for steps?
These tiles do not have an edging option but they do have 2 'flat' sides. If you end up with loop sides around the border these tiles would have to be cut to remove the loops.

These tile have interlocking tabs and will allow water and liquids to fall through
Was this helpful?What is the sub-surface typically under the tiles? In other words what do you put it on top of?
Decking can be installed over existing solid and level surfaces, such as a concrete patio floor, pool decking, and even an existing deck.
