    sounds like your corner cuts were too tight?

    Sounds like either the subfloor is dishing or the wall snakes, either could cause the vinyl to bubble on the wall for what seems like no reason, only way round this is to 'release' the bubble basically get a straight edge slice through it and then groove and weld it, had this happen loads in january on site the drops for a shower traps were well to steep and so had to stick a couple of slice and wells in each one, as long as you have the right weld they are barely noticeable.
