A third possibility is this: If the existing vinyl is securely glued to the floor, you could apply an embossing leveler (cement-based product) in a very thin skim coat over the vinyl. This seals in any stains, levels the floor, and gives the new vinyl a nice, smooth surface to lay over (or a good surface for vinyl glue to adhere to).
Most flooring manufacturers will not honor the warranty on their vinyl if it is installed over existing vinyl, unless you do the embossing leveler step above.
Let's assume they are 1 inch floor tiles. 20 - 8 = 12 square inches

your less likely to get laid then a tramp
Depends on what denomination of money you use: 1,000,000,000 one dollar bills is 1,000,000,000*6inches=6,000,000,000inches= 500000000 ft=94696.96 miles if laid end to end 200000000 5 dollar bills is 100000000 ft if laid end to end or if you could find 100000 very rare $10,000 bills its 50000 ft if laid end to end
Answer from Choices (http://www.choicesflooring.com.au/vinyl/) Generally, cushion vinyl is laid loosely so any imperfections in the floor don't show through over time. It can also be glued down, but the flooring needs to be completely level. Vinyl tiles or planks are glued down so the surface needs to be completely level, which is done by applying a self- leveler to the floor if required.
The glue used to stick them to the floor is weak, or there was dirt or foreign matter under the tile, or the under floor was not completely clean when it was laid.
only if its solid wood under and a well stuck down single layer if there is any movement ie cracks in the vinyl the wood floor is not stable and a 1/2 ply should be laid down first then rosin or felt paper
Yes - but a qualified yes. If you are talking about the 12" square vinyl floor tiles that are still securely fastened then you can go right over them. If they old tiles are lifting or loose then the answer would be no. If only one or two tiles are loose then you can remove those ones - and with a patching / floor leveling compound fill in the voids so that the entire floor is smooth and level. If you can not find a patching compound try using a modified latex thinset (for tiles). It sticks to most things and is relatively cheap and will last longer than the sheet vinyl floor. If many of the tiles are loose - remove them all. The old adhesive is starting to fail and will cause problems after you install the new floor. There are several ways to fasten sheet vinyl flooring the most common being glued down. Check the manufacturer's instructions on what the acceptable substrates are. I would highly recommend first washing (to degrease) then scuff sanding the old tiles to promote adhesion.
No! Bad idea! Laminate is a floating floor that has to dissipate any moisture that comes up through it. If you put vinyl flooring over it, the laminate can't "breath" and it will respond to the humidity by swelling up and buckling.
Not directly as the ceramic tiles will soon show through the vinyl flooring. If the ceramics are laid on a wooden floor, you must take up the tiles and overboard with 6mm plywood. If the tiles are on a concrete floor, you can leave them down and lay a latex screed on top to provide you with a smooth floor for your vinyl
yes - of course
The dog laid on the floor.
Yes. there is usually an underlayment under vinyl, so it sometimes gives you a height issue.
If you are you are referring to tongue and groove flooring such as Pergo then the answer is yes. You may however want to first lay lu-on (not sure of spelling but it is a thin sheet of wood) to insure that the floor is level.
That is the correct spelling of "laid" (an egg, or a new floor).
A fitted carpet means that the carpet covers the whole of the floor area. An underlay may be laid first and the carpet laid on top. The carpet is not attached to the floor.
