FAQs

Is this vinyl flooring waterproof?

Yes, the Underfoot Matera range is designed to be waterproof, making it excellent for kitchens and bathrooms.

Can I install this over existing tiles?

It is recommended to install on a smooth, flat subfloor. If installing over existing tiles, you may need a leveling compound to ensure the grout lines do not telegraph through the vinyl.

Does this product require adhesive?

Yes, it is designed to be fitted with a suitable vinyl flooring adhesive for a secure and long-lasting installation.

How do I keep the checkerboard pattern clean?

Regularly sweep or vacuum to remove grit, and use a damp mop with mild floor cleaner to keep the white and black tiles looking vibrant.

Is this suitable for underfloor heating?

While the foam backing is comfortable, please verify the temperature compatibility with the adhesive manufacturer before installing over underfloor heating systems.

Can I cut this to size myself?

Yes, the material can be cut using a sharp utility knife and a straight edge to ensure accurate lines.

Troubleshooting

Visible air bubbles or bumps under the vinyl

Usually caused by uneven subfloors or trapped air during installation. Use a floor roller to smooth out the area towards the nearest seam.

Edges are lifting or peeling

Re-apply a small amount of high-quality vinyl adhesive under the loose edge, press firmly, and weight the area down until the glue sets.

Surface appears dull or dirty despite cleaning

Avoid excess water and ensure you are using a non-residue cleaner. A mild soap solution followed by a dry cloth buffing can restore the shine.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic, versatile black and white aesthetic
  • Waterproof and suitable for wet zones
  • Comfortable cushioning due to foam backing
  • Enhanced safety with slip-resistant texture
  • Simple maintenance and cleaning

Cons

  • Requires professional or DIY adhesive installation
  • Pattern alignment requires precision during setup
  • Not intended for heavy-duty industrial environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Underfoot Matera vinyl requires a clean, dry, and level subfloor to ensure a professional-looking finish. Use a recommended vinyl flooring adhesive to secure the roll to the subfloor, ensuring that all edges are sealed to prevent moisture ingress. When cutting the material to fit, allow for a slight overlap at the edges for trimming, or follow your floor plan precisely.

For daily care, simply sweep with a soft-bristled broom to remove loose debris. Use a damp mop with mild, pH-neutral floor cleaner to remove stubborn grime. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can dull the finish or damage the protective top layer over time.
