We have a screened porch 8’ x 12’ with 2x6 wood boards for the floor. The floor is very similar to that of a regular wooden deck. The gaps between boards are about 1/8” to 1/4”. We would clean the floor well, first. Would the peel and stick carpet tiles work ok when installed directly to the wood floor? Or would we need some sort of underlayment over the boards? If so, what options would work for that? Thank you!

In wall to wall or rug installations, tiles can be loose laid and cut into place with a straight edge and a utility knife. Each tile has a self-adhering back that secures each tile to the floor without the need for glue, tape or tacks. If you do experience some movement and would like to ensure that the tiles do not slide at all, some double sided carpet tape can be used around the perimeter of the floor and directly under the seams of the tiles to prevent any movement.

To keep your rooms clean and inviting, carpet tiles should be vacuumed frequently. Spills should be removed immediately with an absorbent cotton cloth and clean water. Periodic maintenance can be performed as needed using a hot water extraction-cleaning machine. Carpet tiles have a backing that prevents water from penetrating or harming the tiles.

You should be able to use these tiles directly over your wood floor but you may experience indentations where there are gaps between the wood. Use of a rubber underlayment such as our 5mm Pre-Cut Rubber Underlayment would minimize those surface indentations.
