I need to put something real nice on my bathroom floor. Second story master bath, proposed tiled area about 55 by 76 inches ( I guess that is small compared to some baths).
Underneath is 3/4" (Or 5/8"?) subfloor, I layed down a 1/4" inch underlayment today. I used sheets of multi-ply plywood (see website) and fastened the underlayment with 7/8" chisel point, coated, narrow-crown staples. Eveything was layed out and installed per the directions from the multiply plywood website, and the floor is real smooth and ready for tile.
Here is my major concern...the bathroom is right over several airducts and the oilburner is right below the bathroom. I didn't insulate the floor under the bath and the floor will see some excess heat.
I have heard the peel and stick vinyl tiles don't last too long, and whatever the last owner put on the floor, it shifted around a little bit.
I don't care what it costs, I want to know who makes the best vinyl tile, and what is the best method of gluing it down. Thanks in advance
