    Altro do looselay sheet.

    is this commercial or dommestic?

    you get loos lay vinyl tile too.

    if you want to do it right lift floor tile, pre substrate and fit as per usual. If tiles are sound and solid with no deflection etc then you could use slc over tile and fit

    Thanks for your reply, does the loose lay vinyl tiles need expansion gap? I don't really like beading to the skirting board, and I think removing the skirting is not an option.

    No but it's best to glue it down

    You can lose lay cushion floor and quickstep clic only needs the smallest expansion gap that you can seal
