Choosing a flooring is a daunting task. It must be reliable, durable, beautiful, non-slip, durable. It is also desirable that it fits easily. All these conditions are met by PVC floor tiles.

What is PVC (vinyl) floor tiles

Not so long ago, another type of PVC coating appeared on the market - vinyl tiles. It is somewhat similar to good linoleum (hence another name - linoleum), but the production technology is different, as is the release form. This material is cut into rectangles or squares, it can be glued or not. It has more than one name - LVT tiles (LVT) - an abbreviation of the English name Luxury Vinyl Tile. Design or art tiles - this is also understandable - designer floor coverings are created from squares or rectangles.

The release form turned out to be so convenient that it quickly conquers the market. It is easier to fit, more economical. Not in terms of price - it’s just high (at the level of commercial linoleum), but in the sense that there is a minimum of scraps left - much less than when using linoleum. This, and its excellent performance characteristics, is the secret of its growing popularity.

PVC floor tiles consist of vinyl and resin, to which stabilizers, plasticizers, and sometimes fillers are added (to give specific properties or a special appearance). The heated mixture is pressed. The resulting material has a high density, but remains flexible and ductile.

PVC tiles consist of several layers:


In terms of composition, there are two types of linoleum tiles: vinyl and quartz vinyl (vinyl quartz). The second option is more expensive, but also more dense, with increased wear resistance.

Types and varieties

According to the method of installation, there is a PVC tile for the floor on a self-adhesive basis, there is a usual one (for the installation of the second type, glue is required). This type of flooring material is glued end-to-end on a flat, clean surface. With this method of installation, the flooring forms a monolith with the base.

There are tiles with locks - mechanical and adhesive. The elements are connected to each other using these locks, and the coating itself is obtained unconnected with the base. This option is called a "floating" floor.

Like linoleum, PVC floor tiles are classified according to the degree of load:


In any of the classes, the choice of colors and textures is very wide. There is an imitation of natural materials - wood, various types of stone, etc., there are plain colors, with or without decorative additives. Most often there is a rectangular shape, with different side lengths, there are squares. Rectangles are most often made "under a tree", imitate parquet or wooden floor, but the squares are more often monochromatic. Interesting panels are collected from them.

When choosing, simultaneously with the class, one must look at the thickness of the protective coating. The thicker it is, the more durable the coating will be. The optimal choice for a house and apartment is the thickness of the tiles is 3 mm, the thickness of the protective layer is 0.3 mm.

Pros and cons

We have collected the main properties of vinyl floor tiles from the reviews of the owners (and hostesses) of such a floor covering. She had many advantages:


In general, almost everyone unanimously declares that PVC floor tiles are the best they have had so far. Moreover, “before” there was laminate, linoleum, ceramic tiles, some even had parquet. Disadvantages were also collected from reviews. There were not so many of them:


As you can see, this is a really good option. Suitable for any premises - technical, residential, with difficult operating conditions.

Styling

The actual laying of vinyl tiles is not a very difficult process, but it requires precision. Pay special attention to the laying of the first two rows, on which all the rest then rest. There is also a difference in the technique of gluing vinyl tiles on glue, laying self-adhesive or with locks. But there are general requirements as well. Let's consider all the questions in more detail.

What tools are needed

A decent set of tools is required to work, but they are all inexpensive, many are on the farm. So, you will need:


It would also be nice to have a hair dryer. In difficult places - when bypassing pipes - it is more convenient to cut the tile when it is warmed up. Then it's no more difficult than cutting household linoleum. And you can only warm it up with a construction hairdryer. Cut the heated tile, wrap it around the pipe, cut off the excess.

How to cut PVC tiles

Although the linoleum tile is dense, it is easy to cut in a straight line. If you want a cut that won't fit the edge of the tile, it's easier to work. Pass the blade with effort along the front side, bend it at the place of the cut, cut the rest with a knife along the fold line.

If the cut needs to be straight - for joining with the next tile, you will need a ruler on tape - so that it does not move. In this case, you will have to cut through everything from the front side. This cannot be done at once, but since the ruler will not move, it will be possible to use the blade two or three times.

Preparation of the base

You can install vinyl tiles yourself. It is only important that the base is properly prepared. It should be flat, clean, dry and tough. PVC floor tiles can be laid on concrete, screed of any type, plywood, fiberboard, OBP, GVL and other similar materials.

There is one caveat with a concrete floor and a screed. The DSP screed is too loose and not rigid enough. It is better to level it under vinyl tiles with a gypsum-based self-leveling mixture. It is not difficult and not very expensive, but the result will be excellent.

Permissible deviation when laying PVC tiles - 2 mm per meter

When laying vinyl tiles on a wooden floor, it is leveled with plywood 12-15 mm thick. You can use GVL or OSB. All fasteners must be recessed and the holes filled. They also putty the joints between the sheets (do not forget to lay the plates apart and leave seams of 2-3 mm to compensate for thermal expansion). For filling joints, it is better to use an acrylic putty - it is more elastic and smoother, the adhesive tile adheres better to it. In general, it is better to lay on wooden floors not adhesive tiles, but floating ones - with any type of locks (mechanical or adhesive). There is less chance that the coating will bulge somewhere due to the difference in the amount of thermal expansion.

The last stage in the preparation of the base is impregnation with a suitable primer. The base will become even stronger, the absorbency will decrease and even out, and the consumption of glue will decrease.

It is also very important that the base is dry. Its moisture content should not exceed 5%. They measure it using a special device, but it is not in the household. So you have to get by with the means at hand. We take a piece of polyethylene without holes and masking tape. Tightly glue the polyethylene with adhesive tape to the base (along the edge in several layers) and leave it for a day. After a day, peel it off and feel it from the inside. If there is no condensation, everything is fine - the floor is dry enough to start laying the PVC tiles.

Laying methods and markings

If the installation of PVC tiles will be done by hand and you use "planks" that imitate wood, there is no experience with such material, it is better to start with the simplest scheme - with an offset. For this method of laying, it is better if the offset is arbitrary - no joints are visible. When using this scheme, it is only important that the joints of the "planks" are spaced at least 15 cm apart. This method of laying is also economical - a cut piece from the last element in a row can serve as a starting plate in the next one (or after one, if the joint is closer than after 15 cm). Other common offset options are 1/3 and 1/2 of the board length. In this case, the pattern is more regular and the joints stand out more.

With this method of layout, the planks are usually placed along the long wall of the room. When using lockless PVC tiles, start the layout from the middle. To determine the location of the starting strip, find the middle of the room. Then a line is drawn through it, parallel to the walls. This is done with a paint cord or ruler and pencil. This line is guided by when laying the first two rows of vinyl tiles, aligning the edges of the tiles with it. With other layouts, everything is more complicated - you have to calculate, draw, but this is not so simple.

Vinyl Tile Adhesive

Special glue is used - for gluing PVC coatings. There are two types of compounds: glue and fixation. Everyone knows what glue is, but few know about fixations. This composition differs in that it does not dry out to a solid state. When it dries, a sticky substance remains on the surface, similar to the one found on scotch tape. This method is good in that the glued coating can be peeled off several times. In this, it is also similar to the sticky composition of scotch tape. The PVC tiles are peeled off for fixing without difficulty, and even after a considerable period (several years or tens of years). At the same time, it will not be possible to move the cover that has been placed on the fixation: lateral displacements are excluded. It comes off only if you pull the edge of the tile upwards.

It doesn't matter which type of adhesive you choose. It is important that it is suitable for gluing PVC coatings, and not expired.

Laying PVC tiles on glue

Apply the adhesive in an even layer on a dry and clean substrate along the strip marked on the floor. The width of the strip of glue is for laying two tiles, if they are long and narrow, the length is to the end of the room. Applying the glue, spread it with a fine-toothed spatula. There should be no bald spots or puddles. It is necessary to achieve an even distribution. If, according to the instructions for the glue, you need to give it time to dry - we are waiting. If not, you can put it on right away.

We put the first row, aligning one edge strictly along the drawn line. When applying glue, try not to grease it, otherwise you can lay it crooked. We laid the first tile, ironed it with our hands, expelling the air from under the material. We step on the laid tile, put the next one, tightly fitting the joint. Glue a piece of masking tape about 10 cm long to the newly laid board. Glue about half of the tiles to be laid, pull it tightly to the laid board and fix the tape. This way the tile has no chance to move. Having fixed it, we iron it, expelling the air. We repeat with the next one. When laying the second row, we also fix it from the sides using 3 strips of adhesive tape.

Having laid two rows, we take a pressure bar and rub the laid coating well with it. This is how we finally expel the air. According to the technology, it is necessary to use a pressure roller weighing 50 kg, with which the freshly laid coating is rolled. At home, it is not, you have to replace it. There is another way to glue linoleum tiles well: after laying, it is good to tap it with a rubber mallet.

Why do you need tape fixation, because it is rarely used? So that the already laid tiles do not move, and this is possible, since the time for complete drying of the glue is 72 hours.

Self-adhesive

Self-adhesive PVC floor tiles are installed as well. The difference is that you don't need to apply glue. Before installing the tiles, the protective layer is removed, the tiles are laid in place, and smoothed. The rest of the procedure is the same.

In this case, the strips do not need to be fixed with tape, since the substance on the wrong side is sticky enough to keep the coating from shifting immediately after gluing. An important nuance - you must first press the tiles to the side surface, keeping the plank in weight. When the edge is joined, the coating is gradually lowered, trying to leave as little air as possible.

Laying PVC tiles with a lock

The lock on vinyl tiles can be mechanical and adhesive. The only difference is in the principle of fixation. The rest of the rules are the same.

The main difference is that the laying of interlocking vinyl tiles starts from the wall. The planks are positioned so that the locks "look" into the room. The first row is laid stepping back from the wall a few millimeters - to compensate for thermal expansion. This gap can be achieved by installing pieces of material of suitable thickness or by finding thick crosses for the tiles.

When laying PVC tiles with a glue lock, you must first join the end, aligning the edges of the boards. Then the lock is joined along the long side and, only after that, the planks are completely lowered. The edges are ironed, checking the tightness of the occurrence of the mechanical lock.

The following video demonstrates how PVC tiles are laid on a floor with a mechanical lock. Usually the material comes with instructions with pictures, but watching the video is also useful.

The installation process for self-adhesive vinyl tiles is shown in this video. The connection is equally reliable and the assembly of the cover is even easier.

Modular PVC (polyvinyl chloride) flooring is an innovative phenomenon in the world of building finishing materials. Modules allow you to lay the floor using the standard square method, lay out lines, markings, checkerboard or more complex mosaics. It began to be produced on the territory of the Russian Federation about 10 years ago, although in Western countries it has been used for 40 years.

Coating application

Due to their high level of wear resistance, modular PVC floor tiles are mostly used for floors in industrial, warehouse, sports and commercial premises, but are also often used for domestic ones. Polymeric prefabricated coating has a low cost, like linoleum, but, unlike it, is much more practical and durable. In everyday life, it is used for bathrooms and kitchens, because it has a water-repellent effect, as well as increased resistance to the influence of aggressive household chemicals.




In production, modular PVC coating is laid in workshops that are different in purpose: metalworking, food, packaging, pharmacological, assembly plants, warehouses and loading terminals. Tiles of this kind are used in service stations, private garages, car washes, car parks, railway station and airport corridors, baggage terminals, gyms, supermarkets and exhibition centers. These modules are made in a wide range of colors and have different textures, so they can be an excellent addition to the overall interior of the room.

10 reasons why you should buy modular PVC flooring

  • Fast styling. Installation of the coating in a 50 m2 room by one person will only take a couple of hours. The room can be used for its intended purpose immediately after the end of the work. The workflow does not require the use of special tools and skills.
  • Maintainability. Modular PVC floor covering, in case of damage to its sectors, can be easily changed to another, and in minutes your floors are like new.
  • Hygiene. They do not absorb water, which prevents mold and mildew from growing.
  • The solidity of the product makes it practically invulnerable to mechanical damage. Heavy industrial, warehouse or commercial equipment, barbells, dumbbells, car wheels, a large flow of people and other factors do not affect its original appearance. The coating is mass-dyed, so the color is not rubbed off.
  • The geometrically correct shape of PVC floor tiles allows you to compose compositions of any colors and variations provided manufacturer (photo examples can be found here) and invented by you.
  • Modular PVC floorsdo not split, unlike ceramic tiles, do not crack or flake off, like concrete or self-leveling floors when heavy objects fall on them.
  • This coating has a soundproof and vibration-absorbing effect, which is indispensable in production.
  • Such floors are quite hardy at various temperatures (from -40 to +110 0 WITH). This allows them to be used not only indoors, but also outdoors. The lowest operating temperature mark is -40 0 C, but at such low rates, the working surface should not be subjected to serious mechanical stress.
  • Has a dielectric effect that does not support combustion.
  • The modules are recyclable and do not pollute the environment after disposal.

Features of installation and operation of PVC floor coverings

Modular PVC flooringit can be repeatedly mounted and dismantled for transfer to another place - this is its main advantage. In addition, it can cover concrete, tiles, self-leveling floors, wood and asphalt, which favorably distinguishes it from natural materials. Easily transported and subject to fragmentary replacement in case of failure. For most types of installation, it does not require the use of adhesives and can be installed not only on horizontal surfaces, therefore it is often used for laying ramps or speed bumps as it has opposing characteristics.



Usually, modular PVC floors 50 × 50mounted on top of the main floor using the "jigsaw puzzle" method using an ordinary rubber hammer to securely fix the tiles. It is better to start the installation from the center of the room, because the excess modules are easily cut off with a carpenter's knife or a jigsaw with an electric drive. The role of the sealant is performed by a special glue, which is applied to the base with a notched trowel. Bonding is recommended in individual cases.

Modular PVC floorsthey are quite easy to use and do not require special maintenance. To maintain the factory appearance, it is enough to regularly remove metal shavings, construction and other debris from their surface. The scrubber can be used on such surfaces without restriction. Greasy stains should be removed with any detergent that does not contain acetone. For safety reasons, the surface can be treated with acrylic industrial polish, applying several layers of it to the floors.

The service life with the active use of modular coatings in industrial conditions without replacement is at least 8 years, in average conditions - more than 15.

Among the floor coverings used in repair, there are those that combine the properties of several materials familiar to us at once. In addition, they look impressive and modern while being quite inexpensive. All these properties captivate the owner of an apartment who is planning a renovation, in which it was not initially planned to invest a lot of funds, but you can get a good final result. It is a PVC floor covering.

PVC coatings imitate the surface of expensive materials, are easy to install and cheap

PVC floor coverings in the apartment

We often use PVC coverings for walls and ceilings. But for floors this material has practically not been used lately. However, the modern construction business has managed to close this gap, and today PVC flooring has occupied its niche among laminate, floor tiles, linoleum and other representatives of building materials.

PVC floors accommodate the properties of linoleum and ceramic tiles.

  • With linoleum, these coatings are united by the structure of the material and the production technology:
    first one large sheet is produced, which is then cut into smaller strips or squares
  • With ceramic tiles - external similarity and dimensions of one unit of coverage

Production technology and structure


PVC tiles usually have a four-layer structure

Modern PVC floors are quite durable (stronger than linoleum), as they are multi-layer and are produced under high pressure.

  • The basis is a one-two millimeter layer of foamed polyvinyl chloride, which provides rigidity, as well as serves for thermal and sound insulation
  • Plasticizers give the PVC coating flexibility
  • The top coating made of polyurethane or polyester with a thickness of 0.2 to 1 mm determines the durability of the floor, protects it from damage

Single-layer PVC tiles are also produced, but they are rarely used for flooring due to their low strength.

Advantages of PVC floor

  • PVC flooring is cheaper than laminate.
  • The coating can have a longer lifespan than linoleum due to the easy replacement of individual tiles. To provide for the possibility of such a repair, buy the cover one pack more than is required by the calculations.
  • PVC tiles imitate the texture of absolutely any material:
    • Ceramics, marble or granite chips, natural stone
    • Can artificially create the appearance of a wooden floor or laminate
      (The exclamations "Oh, what do you have here, really plastic, not wood ???" are not surprising in an apartment with PVC floors)
  • This is an excellent moisture-resistant material, very unpretentious to care for.
  • PVC tiles have a non-slip surface, thanks to the manufacturing technology that allows you to create an embossed outer layer
  • Fragile objects when dropped to the floor, do not break
  • PVC has a low thermal conductivity, so this floor is warmer than tiles.
  • A floor heating system can be installed under this covering.
  • Tiles or strips are very easy to install: this operation is available for women and even children, especially if a self-adhesive floor is installed

Note: How long such a coating will last, and whether the tiles will not be torn off soon, will be revealed during operation.

Now let's move on from praises to disadvantages

Disadvantages of PVC floors

We did not specifically name among the merits "environmental safety", although in the advertisement you will definitely find an item about "complete safety of polyvinyl chloride".

  • We will not argue that synthetic materials are completely safe, if only because any synthetic material tends to evaporate at high temperatures and be present in the environment. The laying technology allows the tiles to be cut by preheating them with a hairdryer. The presence of vapors of polymer materials in the apartment is unlikely to be useful. Therefore, since this point is in question, it automatically goes from advantages to disadvantages.
  • Despite the relatively good strength, it is not worth recommending the use of PVC floors where there is very high traffic or a lot of equipment is installed, that is, in a public area, and if used, then only of increased thickness and strength
  • The service life of the PVC coating is relatively short - up to 10 years
  • The floor surface is not resistant to solvents

PVC flooring technology

PVC tiles can be laid on any (new or old) prepared surface:
concrete floor, wood floors, old laminate, parquet, etc.

Surface preparation is the same as when installing linoleum or laminate:

  • small irregularities and defects can be eliminated with a self-leveling mixture
  • in case of more serious damage and deviations, a new concrete pouring is required

Installation of skirting boards and thresholds

This is the finishing touch to the work.

  • Skirting board and threshold are also chosen from PVC
  • The method of fixing the skirting board is gluing it to the wall
    • The surface of the wall below is cleared of wallpaper, paint, dirt
    • The side of the skirting board adjacent to the wall is cleaned with sandpaper and degreased with gasoline
    • Glue is applied to the plinth and the wall (in two layers: the second after 10 or 15 minutes)
    • When the second layer is dry (usually after 5-10 minutes), the plinth is pressed against the wall with a special trowel
  • The threshold is installed at the level of the doorway, attaching it with self-tapping screws and dowels to the floor

    Polymeric garage flooring is sometimes referred to as "self-leveling floors" or "cast floors." Our polymer composition can be installed on the so-called warm floors in the garage.

    GarageTek resin floors are installed within one day. Within 2-4 hours after the completion of the work, you will be able to walk on the new floor, and after 24 hours put your car in the renovated garage.

    EXPERT OPINION

    Is the resin floor suitable for parking, is it resistant to wheel spikes?

    For it is important to prepare a high-quality base - a good screed, poured in accordance with all industrial standards from concrete grade not lower than M300. Thin-layer seamless coatings based on polyurea are resistant to the destructive effects of heavy vehicle weight, spikes, temperature extremes, dirt, dust, water, chemicals, gasoline, oil, falling heavy objects and others.

    The ability to paint on the floor in the garage

    Polymeric flooring from GarazhTek can be supplemented with any pattern according to an individual project. In the gallery of images on this page you can see photographs of our earlier work on drawing a pattern on the floor surface, or watch a video of the complex arrangement of a garage in the Moscow State Building Complex. Your garage floor will not only be reliable, but also unique.

    Possibility of covering horizontal and vertical surfaces inside and outside the garage

    The polymer composition can be used to cover both horizontal and vertical surfaces, both indoors and outdoors. For example, a porch staircase or hatches can be coated with polymer.

    EXPERT OPINION
    Alexander, installation foreman at GarageTech

    Can polymer be used outdoors?

    I completed my first one in an open area back in 2010, five months after starting work at GarazhTek and completing training. We installed recently for the same client. So our street pavement is still like new. You can cover a staircase, porch or just a platform on the street with a polymer composition, and not only horizontal surfaces, but also vertical ones!

    Mosaic self-leveling garage floors

    Concrete-mosaic self-leveling floors- a new solution for the installation of flooring in the garage, which, of course, has a number of advantages over other flooring options. Floors made of marble chips are distinguished by good performance properties - resistance to wear, fading, environmental friendliness.

    Polymer-mosaic floors in terms of their properties and laying technology, they took all the best from concrete-mosaic and polymer floors. The basic tinted composition can be of any RAL color. The placeholder is also selected for specific tasks and design ideas. The technology provides for applying a pattern or ornament to the floor by installing dividers and using a combination of different colors of the base layer.

    On the video is a fragment of the release of the program "Ideal Repair" on Channel 1. All work is carried out by employees of the GarageTech company


    EXPERT OPINION

    Yuri, master of flooring installation

    Why is a mosaic floor better than other garage flooring?

    The use of a mosaic floor in garages and utility rooms allows you to make the most of all the advantages of natural stone (hardness, strength, durability) in combination with the amazing possibilities of decorative design. The decorative texture of the floor is formed by adding a large number of various colored fillers, in particular, marble chips. In the process of working on the flooring, the hardened surface is thoroughly sanded and, if necessary, covered with a strengthening impregnation.

    PVC floor tiles for garage flooring

    Designed for high traffic and high traffic areas, GarageTek plastic flooring is ideal for a garage.


    EXPERT OPINION

    Vladimir, installation foreman at GarageTech

    Is there an option to quickly install a garage floor without unnecessary dirt?

    They will help to solve the problem of installing a floor in the garage in a short time and with a minimum of dusty work. Various color options and the possibility of combining them will make the floor unique. Using tiles of different colors, you can, for example, lay out a "checkerboard" on the floor or visually highlight the car parking area. But this is just one of the flooring options offered by GarageTech.

    Floor tiles made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) are attached to each other using special locks provided by the design, forming a continuous flooring. The basis for laying such a surface can be cement, asphalt or any other level surface. Depending on the weight of the vehicle, you can select the required thickness of the coating in order to optimize the mechanical impact. It should be noted that coatings can have varying degrees of roughness - this is especially important for inclined surfaces, driving into the garage.

    We usually install the plastic sheeting in just one day. In rare cases, the timing may change after your floor has been analyzed by our garage expert.

    Coating colors: black, yellow, gray and dark gray (in stock)

    Other colors - on request

    The floor can be made of tiles in one color or a combination of colors with different designs

PVC panels are a popular decorative material used for interior decoration. With its help, you can beautifully decorate both walls and ceilings.

PVC panels have many advantages, among which it is especially important to note the following:

  • strength, reliability, high resistance to moisture - thanks to this they can be used both in living quarters and in hallways, in bathrooms;
  • ease of installation - not only a professional, but also an amateur master will cope with the installation, especially if you need to mount the panels on even walls that do not require additional preparation;
  • ease of care - it is easy to care for the coating made of this material, in most cases dust and dirt can be removed without much hassle with a damp cloth or napkins;
  • additional heat and sound insulation - the room will become more comfortable;
  • excellent decorative properties - the richness of colors and patterns cannot but impress, and a designer can easily create a truly beautiful and at the same time practical interior with the help of plastic panels.

This material is not devoid of certain disadvantages. First of all, this is low resistance to shock: plastic can be crumpled or punctured. It is also worth noting that PVC panels can fade and turn yellow when exposed to constant UV radiation.

Installation of PVC panels

Installation of panels on flat walls can be done with glue. This is the easiest option, even someone who has never done finishing work before can handle it. The advantage of this installation is the absence of voids under the panels, so that they will not bend under pressure.

If PVC panels need to be mounted on uneven walls or used to mask pipes or wires, the situation becomes a little more complicated. In this case, you will need a frame, which is usually made of wooden slats. The panels are attached to it.

How to choose PVC wall panels?

The main thing to pay attention to is thickness. Comparatively thin PVC panels are used for ceiling installation, while walls will require material with a thickness of 10‒12 mm. In terms of width, the wider the sheets, the fewer seams there will be on your walls.

If you are planning to choose panels for a bathroom or kitchen, make sure that the material you are interested in is suitable for use in rooms with high humidity. Otherwise, the pattern on its surface may deteriorate over time.

PVC wall panels in our catalog

The catalog of our hypermarket chain contains plastic panels of various sizes and colors. You will definitely find color and stylistic solutions that will effectively fit into your interior, help to make the living room, bathroom, kitchen more beautiful and practical.
