This video explains why OUR inexpensive vinyl peel & stick tile is virtually waterproof. See all our great patterns at www.mazerwholes...
One of the most frequently asked questions we get about our self-adhesive flooring is "is it waterproof (or water resistant)?
This video explains how the backing of the tile is made to actually pull the tile tightly down to the surface to which is it applied so the adhesive grabs the surface leaving little chance for moisture to get underneath.

I've used stick on tiles for 20 yrs, there ok , the only problems I've had is standing water, from a leak or spill not cleaned up in a reasonable amout of time, you can mop the flooring as well as any other , when my children were young they splashed a lot of water on the flooring , we just wiped it up with a towel ,20 years later same floor ,same tiles no visible damage, tough we are tired of the design and wat to update our bathroom,. We used them in the kitchen also ,last year we had to replace the tile, we were gone from home for a few hours when a water line connection failed, we came home to water covering the entire kitchen floor , so much so we had to wet vac it up, we got the water up and the floor dried quick enough that we saved the luan, but many of the tiles were detaching slowly from the floor, and we had to replace the entire floor. and again we did with stick on tiles, no regrets easy job, thats been my experience , just a tip buy a few extra ones if one gets scuffed real bad or in our case a hot frying pan was dropped on them , you can use a heat gun, or even a hot iron over a thick towel to heat the glue under the tile to pry up the old tile and replace it and make the floor look like new again . You can't do that a linoleum one piece covering.

How about walls , say a shower wall?
@mazerwholesale

Not recommended for shower walls. #1. The tile doesn't stick to vertical surfaces unless you use a construction adhesive like Liquid Nail. #2.Although floors get wet, they're not usually exposed to being wet often and experiencing hot and humid conditions daily.

Some people put rubber mats specifically where the tires will roll on the floor. Other than that, there is no "product" for that purpose.

I built a 6 inch wide ledge on each side of the tub. Can these tiles surround the tub on the ledges?
@mazerwholesale
@mazerwholesale 3 года назад
I can't recommend the peel & stick tile for this purpose. The adhesive will probably fail pretty quickly and the surface layer will also decay prematurely.

These tiles will come up real easy in a flood situation. They are not at all waterproof. Any standing water will INDEED seep in the seams and under the tile. So you dont get the floor real wet. Damp mop like anywhere else and its fine. But any standing water will get in, under and lift those right up. I had them in my laundry room and they are quite robust. But we had a flood and those came up without any effort at all and under them was a sheet of water. No flooring is waterproof unless its sheet vinyl with no seams or real tile with mortar and no open seams/grout.
@andrewmazer7400
@andrewmazer7400 7 лет назад
The tile is not made to be submerged in water. However, I have plenty of customers tell me they DID have a flood and our tile remained stuck to the floor. I have also tried an experiment: I put one tile in my driveway of my home in New Jersey in July, 2016. As of this date, October, 2017, that tile is still stuck on the driveway, exposed to direct sunlight, rain, snow, and ice and it still looks fine. Standing water isn't good for any floor but in my experience, our tile consistently outperforms all expectations.

Exactly... No vinyl tile floor is water proof. Depending on how long it is wet, and thereby how much the subfloor soaks up. The tile will pop. Jim

My biggest concern is when water falls in between the 2 tiles...still no water going to get through if cleaned up quickly?
@mazerwholesale

That's not a problem. Standing water is not good, but a little water here and there is fine, especially if you wipe it up in a reasonable amount of time. Take a look at this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RRQgJTGGloE.html and this one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oLQSwuNqLV0.html

I saw vinyl tile in an RV shower stall. It was stuck all around the walls vertically as well as the floor. This is a small van type RV where a couple lives in it full time. So it does get some use, but only 2 people and probably used every other day. I am assuming from another comment below, that this was not a smart thing to do. The shower stall looked very nice like slate tiles, but I was questioning that constant water exposure and possible mold issues + damage to sub floor.

Need advise. I am thinking of getting these tiles for my kitchen, My floorboards I have are in great condition. My question is... Does it make a BIG difference If I lay the tiles on 3 or 4 mm HARDWOOD ? Or do I HAVE to lay them on PLY ? Reason I ask is I have been told THEY WILL BUBBLE if I lay them on hardwood.. ;-) GREAT CHANNEL by the way ;-)
@mazerwholesale

I see absolutely no reason not to lay them on the surface as it is. The tile will stick to your hardwood floor.

Would it be a good idea to install peel and stick tile under my kitchen sink and caulk the seams and borders? I want to prevent damage under my cabinets if there is a leak. My Dad said water would get underneath and make the situation worse.
@mazerwholesale
@mazerwholesale 5 лет назад
It's a GREAT idea. I've done the same thing under my own kitchen sink. The tile is highly water resistant so unless there's a quantity of water and it's standing on the tile for a long time, you have no worries. If you had a quantity of water and NO tile, it would surely be worse!

@mazerwholesale
@mazerwholesale 6 лет назад
The tile is not recommended for the shower. However, considering I STILL have a tile stuck on my driveway for almost 2 years under snow, slush, ice, rain, direct sunlight and high heat, I think it'll probably work. The tile does NOT stick to vertical surfaces unless you add adhesive. We recommend Locktite all-purpose adhesive but some customers have told me Liquid Nail works great on vertical surfaces.

@@moriartymatt34 I am also curious! Doing a shower remodel myself, and trying to find 'smart' alternatives. 100% waterproof vinyl plank/tile flooring seems to work consistently well with the right backing/adhesive/installation, but these tiles seem promising too! Any updates, as well as additional install information (what kind of backing (cement board, existing tile, etc) seal/liner/unseal before hand, etc)) would be greatly appreciated!!

@@lyonlover I don't understand taking a health risk. Once toxic mold enters your body, there is no known way to remove it. You won't know if mold is growing behind the tiles in a shower until it's too late. And simply touching it allows it to enter via your skin. Of course, breathing mold spores is an issue as well.

@mazerwholesale

Thank you for your question. If you want to stick the tile to a wall, you will need to use a construction adhesive. Customers tell me Liquid Nail works well. Even though the adhesive on the tile is very strong, it simply doesn't stick to vertical surfaces without adding construction adhesive.
