Just had a vinyl floor laid yesterday in the kitchen. Vinyl is laid on a concrete floor with self level compound on top. Not sure if am being to eager to get the fitter back but when I got up this morning I noticed a bubble in one area of the vinyl. It looks like it needs stretching but not sure if I need to give the vinyl time to settle. Will it shrink and tighten up or will it stretch more now it's down? I was going to give it a week before contacting the fitter. Other than this the fitter has done an excellent job. Should I wait or do I need it stretched and trimmed? I am hoping it will settle as I don't want to have to get the washing machine and cooker out again.

the washing machine and cooker - are they on top of the flooring so preventing it from settling? I believe vinyl spreads out a little after it is laid. You might be able to push the bubbles to the side or end with a soft broom.
