I want to replace the vinyl tiles in my bathroom,(self adhesive type), because they are old, and some have chunks missing from them. I'm fairly handy at things around the house, but have never worked with these tiles before. Naturally I have a bunch of questions.
- Should I rip all of the old tiles up before putting down the new ones, or install the new ones over top of the old?
- Can this be done without replacing the subfloor underneath?
- If I don't need to remove the subfloor, should I sand the floor before installing the tiles?
- I'm going to replace the tiles with self adhesive tiles, should I put some kind of adhesive or primer on the floor before installing the tiles to make sure they bond well?
- Do any of you know of a good website, or FAQ about installing vinyl tiles? I appreciate any info. and tips you might have on this!
Thanks, Snyde
