Adhesive tiles - an old chestnut..

Recommended Posts

I laid vinyl floor with adhesive tiles recently without making sure the concrete beneath was completely flat - I know, not very sensible - I'm now paying the penalty with a floor that creaks when you walk on it. It's not too serious as we have carpet over most of the area we walk on, but I'm wondering: does anyone know of a good adhesive available in France that might improve the situation?

All best, Nick

is it a vinyl floor as in lino/cushion floor  or   vinyl tiles ????

 

If its  self adhesive tiles making a crackling noise  they've come away from the concrete try using an air dryer to warm them up to see if they sink down.

adhesive wise spray glue or contact adhesive

Yes, that incredibly annoying 'crackling noise' is exactly what I'm getting. Have tried warming up the tiles before - did no good. Still on the lookout for an effective glue. A spray glue sounds a good idea - who makes it? Or the name of a good contact adhesive?

Much obliged for any ideas..

Nick
