Carpet squares can be installed over wood, plywood, vinyl tile, concrete and almost any hard surface. Carpet tiles can be installed with or without adhesive depending on use. We recommend using releasable adhesive and following the Five-Spot Method:
CARPET TILE INSTALLATION: FIVE SPOT METHOD:
Spray a quarter size spot of adhesive on the back of the carpet square about 2 inches back from each corner and one in the center, as shown above.
Turn the carpet tile over and lay it in place. Be sure to lay the carpet square with all the arrows pointing in the same direction unless you intend to quarter turn every other carpet tile to make a basket weave design.
ADHESIVE:
Releasable adhesive formulated for vinyl back carpet tile must be used to insure proper installation.
We can ship this with your order at a very reasonable price. The spread rate for the five spot method is
approximately 300 square feet per one can of our spray adhesive, or if using full spread method 180 square feet per can.
