•
Accurately measure the room to determine
the center line, adjust this established line to
accommodate a balanced layout and then
transpose this line to the determined layout
width away from the starting wall (approximately
2’ to 3’).
•
Apply the adhesive in this area following the
adhesive manufacturer’s instructions.
•
After allowing sucient open time, begin laying
the tile at the intersection of the working lines.
Be certain this tile is installed squarely on the
lines.
•
After the rst tile is in place, begin laying tiles
outward along both guidelines. Press tiles
rmly against adjoining tiles and press into
the adhesive. Begin stair stepping the tiles into
the eld area. Maintain the squareness of the
installation by keeping tiles along guide lines
Insure that the tiles are rmly bonded to the
suboor by rolling the entire installation with
a minimum of 100-pound three-section oor
roller.
• In hallways and small spaces, it may be simpler
to work lengthwise from one end using a center
reference line as a guide.
• Make sure cut edges are always against the wall.
•
To properly cut LVT products score the top
side of the material with a utility knife. Bend
the product and nish the cut through the
backside. This will ensure the cleanest cut. It may
be necessary to use a heat gun to cut around
vertical obstructions. Allow the heated LVT to
return to room temperature before installation.

After thoroughly cleaning
the suboor, measure the
space to determine the
center point of the room.
Strike a line at this point.
Create a 90° angle to divide
the room into four equal
parts.
Measure the distance from
the center to the wall.
Divide the measurement
by the width of the plank.
If less than half remains
as the border plank,
adjust the center point to
compensate and allow for a
balanced layout.
