Why Choose PVC Interlocking Floor Tiles by Camp Manufacturing?

Before getting started with installation, here is a handy list of some common reasons why Camp Manufacturing Interlocking PVC Floor Tiles have been on the rise from the perspective of professionals.

Ease of Installation: Our PVC Interlocking Tiles don’t just perform well, but they are also easy to install and hassle-free.

Necessary Tools and Materials for Installation

When making preparations for the installation of the PVC Interlocking Floor Tiles by Camp Manufacturing, collecting all tools and materials needed ahead of time is very critical. Using the correct tools will help make the steps smoother while also producing high quality results. Everything needed is listed below along with a brief reason to help understand why each tool is important:

1. Rubber Mallet

Purpose: A rubber mallet is to ensure proper fitting by gently tapping the tiles into place without force that may damage the material. 

Why It’s Essential: There is less chance of damaging greater parts of the tile’s surface or its interlocking mechanisms, unlike a standard hammer while providing a degree of impact.

2. Measuring Tape

Purpose: Measuring tape is used for accurate measurements of the specific area where the tiles are to be installed. This assists in adequately ensuring enough material is available and plan out the installation.

Why It’s Essential: To avoid having too much or too little material available which results in added costs without effective resource use. Also assists greatly in foreseeing challenges having to deal with corners or other obstacles while installing the tiles.

3. Utility Knife

Purpose: Utility knife cuts the tiles to the required size of the room, specifically at the edges and corners.

Why It’s Essential: A keen edge utility knife will cut tiles to fit virtually any space, big or small. This level of precision granularity is optimal for fitting around objects and custom irregular shapes.  

Preparing the Floor

Clean the Surface: Make sure the floor is spotless and devoid of any debris.

Inspect for Damages:  Inspects the floor for any cracks and other deformities.

Detailed Installation Steps

Step 1: Layout Planning

Select the Starting Corner: It’s crucial to start installing at one room corner. You may choose a corner depending on your layout.

Orientation of Tiles:  Choose the direction you wish your tiles to face. The most common practice is to face the tiles towards the longest wall to achieve symmetry and ideal proportions.  

Step 2: Begin Laying the Tiles

Place the First Tile: Place the first piece starting from the corner and ensure its edges meet the two bordering walls.

Check Alignment: Check if the tile you set is perfectly aligned with the bordering walls using a carpenter’s square or any other right angle tool.

Step 3: Interlocking the Tiles

Position the Next Tile: The subsequent tiles should be placed in such a way that the interlocking edges correspond to the edges of the first tile.

Use a Rubber Mallet: Tap the tiles using the rubber mallet to firmly interlock the tiles. Remember to hear the click sound to ensure the tiles are interlocked correctly.

Step 4: Continuing the First Row

Follow the Same Method: As up to this point, place a tile beside the first tile, interlocking and aligning until the first row is completed.

Check for Straightness: From time to time, check if the tiles are laid straight with a straight edge or laser level.

Step 5: Starting New Rows

Stagger the Joints: Start the following row with a tile cut in half. This will stagger the joints like bricks increasing strength, and the visual appeal.

Continue Laying Tiles: Accomplish the next rows as explained previously, keeping them interlocked and properly aligned.

Step 6: Cutting the Tiles for Edges and Corners

Measure the Gap: For the edge and corner tiles, measure the gap that remains.

Mark and Cut: These measurements should first be marked on the tile, and then it should be cut along the mark with a sharp utility knife carefully. 

Step 7: Final Inspection and Finishing Touches

Inspect Each Tile: Perform a walkthrough in the room to confirm that all the tiles interlocked securely. 

Apply Finishing Edges: If your kit includes edge pieces, attach these along the perimeter for a clean finish.
