There are two kinds of vinyl tiles available - vinyl coated
or solid vinyl.
They are warm to stand on, comfortable and quiet to walk
over. Vinyl flooring is available in a variety of colours,
shapes and prices. It is a resilient surface covering, easy
to cut and are suitable for areas where complicated cuts
have to be made.
Once you have decided on the tile, note its length and
width and measure the room carefully. Measure its length
and divide it by the length of one tile. Round up the number
of tiles to the next whole number. Now measure the width
of the room and divide that by the width of the tile, round
up the number of tiles to the nearest whole number. Multiply
the two whole numbers together. This will give the number
of tiles required to tile the room.

page to give you a rough guide to the number required.
It is always wise to buy a few extra tiles, to keep as
spares in case of accidental damage in the future.
