Must I seal plywood sub-floor before laying peel-stick Tile?
Comments (6)I had the same kind of Sub-floor put in for my beauty shop, I to used peel and stick tile. I primed the 3/4 inch plywood, let it dry. Follow the peel and stick directions for placement. My tiles never came up. You don't need the fancy stuff in the previous reply. I had traffic on my floor for eight years and it looked fantastic till the day we moved out of the home., OH...just make sure to use screws to fasten plywood, we had a floor come up because of nails used by flooring people.

I am thinking of doing something easily removable in the future so I can change it up if I get tired of looking at it. I am even thinking of doing ceramic tiles on plywood and using french cleats to hang it....See Moreremoving peel and stick floor tile
Comments (2)Are these actually the thin peel and stick tiles or are they older vinyl tiles which are glued down? My friend had peel and stick in her kitchen and literally a Bissel steam mop provided enough heat to melt whatever was holding the tiles down. In fact, she had used the steam mop to clean the floors which is when they started coming undone and she decided to replace. There are lots of places that sell retro looking tiles but it would be almost impossible to find tiles that would match whatever is now on the floor even if portions could be salvaged....See MoreRobin Christine
