Therefore, it is not necessary for you to call workers to install vinyl planks, do it by yourself by following these mentioned below steps.

Step 1: subfloor preparation:

Subfloors should be clean and smooth for the installation of vinyl floors. Subfloors may include ceramic tiles, linoleums, laminate and parquets. But make sure it would not carry any type of wet, dusty or dirty appearance as it would not give strength to the glue for vinyl planks. Moreover it should be dry and even surface. You can check the level of your floor by levelling compound, as this is important because vinyl is thin and soft textured, any unevenness will cause it a bumpy look.

Coat a primer if your floor is extraordinary smooth, this will help in adherence of vinyl to your sub floors. Otherwise a clear clean wash and dry will be enough to install your planks.

Step 2: Vinyl planks preparation:

You must know about the actual size of your floors and the total size of your vinyl floorings. This is important in order to prevent the shortage of planks to the corners of your floors. So always measure a difference of additional centimeters of wooden planks before applying glue below them.

You must also know about the acclimatization of flooring planks before its installation on room temperature. I.e. on 15-20 degree centigrade.

For medium room: less than 25 meters considered to be a medium room and here a semi loose application of vinyl floors may work perfect. Semi loose application can be done by using double faced duct tape. Tapered the surrounding of floors with the room base.

Note: a room that covered a lot of traffic such as entrance of corridors will count as medium rooms where semi loose installation is preferred.
