See my flooring install playlist. The floor preparation and layout are the same for peel and stick vinyl planks as they are for floating vinyl plank floors. To install each piece peel the adhesive backing off the plank and stick it to the subfloor. To install vinyl flooring start by removing all furniture from the room and taking off baseboards or trim along the bottom of the wall.

Lay out the vinyl flooring in the room and mark the area where the excess will be cut out. Starting in the middle of the room is best whenever possible to ensure an even application. When learning how to install vinyl flooring with a glue down method remember to start in the center of the room rather than in the corners. Find the center of the room then using your chalk and straightedge strike a line.

Strike a second line at a right angle from the first line dividing your room into four equal quadrants. Installing vinyl plank flooring or pvc tiles follows much of the same process. After removing any old flooring lay down a plywood underlayer on the ground and use a stapler to secure the plywood sheets along the edges. Cut with a utility knife or heavy duty shears.
