Personally can’t comment on textures I’ve never had the pleasure to fit it yet.

J2 I’ve installed a fair bit now. Goes together well but I can’t hand on my heart say it goes together better than most others. I do like the colours and prints they do and think they’ve got the nail on the head with the shades and designs! Spoken to a few floor layers one man band set up...

Any of you have any experience with Amtico click smart?

Got a customer who is really drawn to the Scandi oak and its not available in the dry back.

Ive tried to persuade her to go with dry back in something as near as possible but she wants this click version. I dont like any clicks to be honest but wanted to see what the experiences were like...]]> 4 Thu, 02 Apr 2026 19:39:31 +0000 https://theflooringforum.com/threads/f48-plus.152770/ https://theflooringforum.com/threads/f48-plus.152770/ invalid@example.com (Akster) Akster On line it says it can be used as a PS installation.

Be grateful for your advice please.

LVT floor laid a couple of years back. There's one area where it's lifted. It's pretty small, probably need to lift 3-4 pieces of LVT.

Please can you recommend:
- best adhesive to use to glue down
- any prep, or cleaning off that I need to do?

Thank you.]]> 3 Thu, 21 Aug 2025 17:45:55 +0000 https://theflooringforum.com/threads/amtico-streaks-in-light.18210/ https://theflooringforum.com/threads/amtico-streaks-in-light.18210/ invalid@example.com (Mayraigh) Mayraigh
Is this normal. The rest of the downstairs seems fine it's just this area near the doorway that seems to be the problem. We haven't paid the rest of the job yet.

First time posting on here!

I’ve recently fitted Expona 600x600 tiles and to be honest I wasn’t impressed. They didn’t butt together particularly tightly and many of the tiles seemed to run slightly off square.

As a consequence it was a hell of a job to get a great finish and the customer, who is being very picky (considering this is an HMO) is picking up that there’s slight gapping.

Has anyone else had these kinds of issues with these tiles, or was it a dodgy batch? I’m usually...

I'm looking into herrigbone SPC rather than tiles for the kitchen dining area (approx 40 sq.m) but I have a few questions that I'm hoping somebody in the trade could help with.

In terms of durability, which locking system is best? I like zeezoo which uses uniclic and bodo which uses a push down 5g. I've also just ordered samples of moduleo layred as they have a good reputation and they use another system...

New to this forum, thanks for having me on board. I have just bought a house built in the 1960's and we are about to lay some LVT. The house was initially carpeted with parquet wood under. Under that is a slab of concrete. The parquet wood looks to be in fine condition with some black glue on the underside. No signs of any rot or issues with damp. However, I plan to put down glue LVT herringbone and the plan was to self level the floor over the parquet and glue down the LVT. My...
