I have a small rear lobby area about 1m x 2m, it's basically where we hang our coats and the dogs sleep at night, I have some spare amtico boards and wondered if i could stick them down with a 50mm wide tape?

the only thing i thought might be a problem is would water get in the joints when i mopped the floor

How uneven is the subfloor, and are there any moisture issues within the subfloor?

If the floor has moisture in it, or is uneven, the tiles won't lay flat or stick, the dogs will have them up in no time. If the floor is dry but uneven, assuming it's concrete, latex screed the floor and fully bond the Amtico with the correct adhesive and you will have a floor that will last forever instead of a few weeks.
