How To Tile OVER Linoleum Floors! CORRECTLY 😲
What happens here
Inspect the linoleum for any damaged, loose, or bubbling spots. If bubbles are present, you can either cut out the affected area or make a small hole and inject an adhesive. For loose areas, such as around door transitions or the toilet, carefully lift the loose linoleum with a pry bar or utility knife. Apply a strong adhesive, like Flex Glue (used in the video), with a caulk gun underneath the loose section. Press down firmly to secure it. This ensures a stable and flat surface for tiling.
Goal: Stabilize any loose or damaged sections of linoleum.
