How to Install Carpet Tiles in a Basement or Office Using Carpet Tile Tape All Flooring Now

[@randy1234344]

Thanks for the video. However, for the floating installation wouldn't it have been a WHOLE LOT EASIER and faster to flip the tiles upside down, apply the tape and then just flip it back upright? Just sayin'

[@mikeclement5383]

Nope. Try it... it is not at all easier. You need the tiles to move as little as possible. The stuff slips and is a royal pain in the ass.

I'm imagining the entire floor of carpet tiles being flipped upside down and then flipped back upright 😮😮

Can you install with tape over floor insulation?

[@allflooringnow]

By “floor insulation” are you meaning rolled carpet pad? And are you wanting to install carpet tiles over top or something else?

[@jamin309]

Yes. Is it possible to do or is it better to remove it?

[@allflooringnow]

@@jamin309it’s best to remove it then clean floor as best you can before using tape

[@JR-rp7vr]

have you tried just using duck tape? Or what about painters tape, typically the yellow roll not the blue?

[@mini-z_me]

No ducks were harmed when making duct tape 😁.
