Ez Lay Vinyl Flooring Reviews

We needed a sheet vinyl to cover a really old vinyl floor in a kitchen. It had to be thick enough to lay totally flat and it had to look like a million bucks. This floor looks amazing. We get compliments on it all the time and are thinking of using it at another house we own. Its not easy to find beautiful sheet vinyl, but Armstrong hit it out of the park with this one! Recommend to a Friend? YesBy marti from Huntington, NYLooks like Marble Tile. I bought this Cushion Step Flooring and had it put in my dressing room, closet and adjoining bathroom. never seen the "cushion step" prior and were VERY impressed with the durability of it and the ease of installing it. have now seen it and claim they will buy this for their next flooring need, wherever they put vinyl flooring down. nice to walk on. It will indent, and does need floor protectors on heavy furniture and chairs. If you treat this like a thick carpet, you will be more than satisfied!
YesBy Coqui2 from Kenbridge, VA We installed Armstrong Cushion Step, Logan Falls - Still Water, several years ago, and it looks great ! Easy to clean, and continues to look clean without very much maintenance.YesBy love our floor from Mesa, ArizonaTop Rated T-Shirt Printing Mesa Az We've had this for 16 years and it looks new! Magic Lighting Led Light Bulb And Remote InstructionsEasy to clean and we love the pattern.Fabric For Drapes And UpholsteryYesBy Ndobbins58 from Bono, AR Old World Charm with the Look of Real Tile I was looking for something with a pattern and hopefully a tile-look. I couldn't be more pleased with the look. upside is it's nearly impossible to see any dirt or stains!!!
Now, I did see this exact vinyl in my sister's MIL's kitchen. She has a darker/mocha color cabinetry, and I thought the darker cabinets pulled more of the gray and less of the warm beige tones from the vinyl, so it looked sort of blah in her kitchen, almost seemed like the floor was dirty, but not with warmerOne caution, this vinyl is not indestructible. A handyman managed to slice the vinyl in two places, (running a ladder across the floor,) so I do advise mats at your sink and entry areas, where you might drop a knife or fork on the floor while doing dishes or encounter a lazy handyman like me.YesBy sk8888 from California This is the perfect product if you have any pets in your home. So easy to clean up without a trace. Love the distressed look. It really looks like wood only better! Very happy & so are our pets!YesBy jescorpio from Missouri Installed Amalfi black myself 8 x 8 bathroom 2 years ago... looks perfect, has a nice texture to it which is perfect for bathroom
Cleans up with regular floor cleaner and looks as new as day one. Also very durable and appeared to be a very thick quality piece of vinyl. People who see our bathroom have commented that they like the slate tile we have. Plan on using in upstairs bathroom in near future.YesBy mwano from Rocky River, OH looks like real wood When the installer came to put in our new floor - he asked us if our kitchen/dining room floor was new - it's Armstrong and is 10 years old. It looks that good. So there was only one choice of product for us when deciding - Armstrong. looks like real wood. We have 6 dogs - and the floor never shows any dirt or hair - it's beautiful.YesBy Debe from Maine Makes my kitchen look new This floor was a much needed improvement for the overall look of our kitchen. It looks like ceramic tile, but without the hassle of grout cleaning. It really brightened up the room. YesBy Brenda324 from Murfreesboro, TN Classy, family friendly product
This is a very forgiving floor and we are very happy with the investment. After two years, it continues to look brand new, despite regular abuse from a young child, pets, spills and high traffic. It disguises dirt well and visitors believe it isI am so glad I went with the higher end resilient as it has held up beautifully.YesBy Chopinfan from Richmond, VA Tiling a Floor Overview Strive for a layout that maximizes the number of whole tiles and the size of any cut tiles. When awkwardly sized tiles can't be avoided, place them where vanities will cover them later or out of the main sight lines from the doorway. You shouldn't step on any tiles until the thinset has cured for at least 24 hours. Save until last all of the cuts requiring a wetsaw. Then rent the wetsaw for one day. Pry up any existing shoe molding from around the perimeter of the room. Cover the entire floor with ¼-inch plywood underlayment secured with 1 ¼-inch (3d) underlayment nails.
Make sure to stagger the joints. Spread a thin layer of leveling compound along the plywood seams with a 6-inch drywall knife. Allow to dry completely (about 30 minutes). Sand the seams smooth with a sanding pad with 100-grit paper. Trim the Door Jamb and Casing To trim down the door opening so the tiles will fit underneath, place a tile upside down in front of either door jamb to serve as a height guide. Lay an undercut saw flat on top of the tile and carefully cut through the jamb (as shown). Slide the tile around to the front and then cut through the casing in the same manner. Repeat these steps on the other side. Lay out the Room in Quadrants Measure the width of the room in two places and in each case mark its exact center on the floor. Snap a wall-to-wall chalk line lined up on the marks. Measure the chalk line and mark its center to indicate the room's center point. Line up a framing square along the chalk line at the center point, then make a line along the square's tongue perpendicular to the chalk line.
Do the same on the other side of the chalk line. Snap a second wall-to-wall chalk line on the perpendicular lines to divide the room into quadrants (as shown). Start Tiling at the Room's Center Sweep each quadrant clean. Tile the floor one quadrant at a time, beginning at the center point. Peel off the backing sheet from the first tile and set it into the corner formed by the intersecting chalk lines. Press the tile to the floor. Set the rest of the tiles in the quadrant. Work out from the first tile in a step pattern, first out along the chalk lines, then filling in (as shown). Continue until you reach the last course before the walls; then start on the next quadrant. Scribe Tiles to Fit Along Walls Place one full tile on top of the tile closest to the wall. Align the top tile so that its four edges line up with the already-installed tile below. Set a second tile on top of the first and slide it up against the wall. Draw a pencil line along the inner edge of the top tile, marking the middle tile (as shown).
Slide out the middle tile for cutting. Cut Tiles to Size To make very clean, straight cuts quickly, consider using a vinyl tile cutter. Similar to a paper cutter, this tool is available at rental shops. Lift the tool's handle to raise the hardened-steel blade. Slip the tile under the blade, then press down on the handle to slice the tile cleanly (as shown). To make interior cutouts, notches, or L-shaped corner cuts, you'll need to use a utility knife, first softening the tile with a heat gun. Trim Tiles Around Heat Registers If you come to a heat register (where a duct emerges from beneath the floor), remove its grille to expose the rectangular hole. Mark a precise cutout for the hole on the vinyl tile by laying a full tile on top of the hole, pressing it tightly to the wall and penciling where it overlaps the duct. Use an electric heat gun to soften the tile, then cut it along the line with a utility knife (as shown). Test-fit the tile before peeling off the backing paper.
