it either needs further trimming (likely)

or is a faulty piece of vinyl (un -likely)

....in either case you need to contact your supplier/fitter
 
We had the same thing happened to our kitchen vinyl floor. Unfortunately, my hubby had to pulled most of it off and had a fitter come to help. Ours was caused by water damage from dishwasher. I hope yours isn't that bad.

Did the fitter check the moisture leval with a hydrometer before he laid it.

It could be the vinyl sucking moisture up from underneath then sweating.

Is your sub floor wood or concrete.

its a concrete floor its in my house i laid it myself i didnt check for moisture etc would there need to be much moisture for it to go like this because the radiator about 1 metre away was dripping but not a lot
 
Blimey :rolleyes:

of course moisture makes a difference! (you did not mention this initially)

cancel my initial advice and worry about the scenario described by Romona

there is an almost certain chance that you have damaged your vinyl beyond repair
