All About Flexible PVC Interlocking Tiles:

• PVC is a material used to make window frames, plumbing pipe and other building products. For Flexible PVC tiles, special plasticizers are added that make the tiles into a material with rubber characteristics with about the same as rubber tires.

• Resilia^TM interlocking tiles are 12" square. This makes for easy installation with simple tools, and a utility knife. No adhesive is required, and it takes about 30 seconds or so per tile, with a final cost that's less than rubber tiles. Since adhesive is not required, there's no risk of bonding failure, plus the advantage that interlocking tiles can be removed and reused at any time.

• The final floor tile cost: Around $3.85 per square foot, plus the labor cost for a handy man, which may be zero if you do it yourself.

• When installed the interlocking is completely hidden from view. To install just place one tile next to another and then press the edges to interlock. It's just like a polybag - Once done, and it stays in place. To remove, simply peel tiles apart by gripping at one corner and lifting.

• Floors do not require any preparation other than to ensure that they are swept clean and do not have bumps in the surface. The interlocking tiles may be installed over concrete, wood floors, old tile, painted floors or floors that have cracks and pits up to 3/8" across.
