Rubber Floor Tiles & Covering
Advantages: - rubber floor covering lasts a very long time,
- quiet and soft underfoot,
- ideal covering for bathrooms and kitchens,
Problems: - if stretched can cause bubbling
- if rubber floor tiles become dry the color will fade
- when laying the tiles surface must be dead even or cracks and bumps will arise
Ideas & Tips: - think ahead: allow for mellowing in the tiles colour to the shade you would like,
- use rubber tiles not sheet rubber,
- polishing frequently will allow colour to become deeper,
- avoid stretching the tiles,
- if bubbles appear and do not recede after weighting down the affected area needs to be cut out and a new piece of rubber put in
