How much does Amtico flooring cost?

The cost of your Amtico flooring will depend on a number of factors. Perhaps one of the most important is the state of your current floor.

Because it’s soft, Amtico flooring needs to be laid on a perfectly flat and smooth surface. If your floor isn’t already level, then you’ll need to factor this into the cost for your new vinyl flooring.

Not only that, but if you want to install your Amtico flooring on top of concrete, you’ll need to get a damp-proof membrane applied first.

Other factors that will influence the price of your Amtico flooring include the design you choose and the intricacy of the pattern you want laying.

FAQs

How long does it take to lay Amtico flooring?

It can be slow to install Amtico flooring because these tiles need to be glued down with a special adhesive.

The adhesive takes around ten minutes to go tacky before the tiles can be stuck to the floor, meaning the room has to be done bit by bit.

Can you lay Amtico flooring yourself?

You can lay Amtico flooring yourself, but be careful – if the tiles aren’t installed inline with the manufacturer’s guidelines, you’ll void any warranty that comes with them. Plus, because the flooring needs to be stuck down, it’s tricky to rectify any mistakes!
