Sheet Vinyl

Sheet Vinyl is a layered construction which has two types of construction identified by the type of backing used: felt and fiberglass

· Felt:  Felt back vinyl must be installed with permanent adhesive so it sticks to the subfloor, otherwise it could curl up at the ends. It also needs to be stored in the installation room for 24 hours to let it acclimatize to the room conditions.   An installation of felt back vinyl is not recommended for area with potential moisture issues.

· Fiberglass: Is the most popular choice in sheet vinyl today due to its simpler loose-lay installation. It can be installed with releasable adhesive or no adhesive at all, making it easy to repair should your floor become damaged. Fiberglass also doesn’t have the curling problem felt has, and it won’t shrink, crack or warp with exposure to handling or the elements.  This type of construction provides a more resilient, cushioned feel underfoot and offers the most comfort!
