Common problems in PVC flooring installation

As PVC flooring is new and light material, it is more and more popular in 21st Century. However do you know how to install them? What aspects should be careful during the installation? What will be the problmes if bad installation?

Problem 1: The installed vinyl flooring is not smooth
Solution: The subflooring is not flat at all. Before installation, clean the subfloor, and make it flat.  If it is not flat, the self-leveling will be needed. The height difference of the surface should be within 5mm.  Otherwise the installed vinyl flooring is not smooth, which will influnce the use and apperance.

Problem 3: The glue is not adhesive
Don’t let the adhesive dry when installation. Don’t brush glue to all the area in advance, but just where you will install.
Lay the flooring in the room over 24 hours, then install.
