How to lay linoleum correctly
Before laying linoleum in the apartment, it is necessary to leve the floor. The old flooring must be dismantled, then carefully clean the surface from irregularities and roughnesses. Cracks and hollows in concrete should be filled with cement mortar.
To achieve complete smoothness, it is recommended to use the equalizer, which is covered with soil on top. The full drying and ventilation of the room from the fumes will need a couple of days. Then you can lay a new linoleum.
If the old layer of linoleum cannot be removed, then you can leave it, evenly fixed over the entire surface.
As a leveling base, you can also use plywood or fiber -fiber slabs). This option is suitable only for rooms with an optimal level of humidity and heat.
You can lay the floor covering to the old parquet or wooden floor, having previously checked it for strength. If necessary, the shaken fragments are additionally fixed, and the cracks are thrown. When linoleum has to be laid on ceramic tiles, then all the old departed segments must be restored in place. The remains of the glue, traces of fat must be removed from the surface.
