Carpet tiles.

[Workingman]

The local glory hole has some commercial quality carpet tiles in chocolate, dark cream and oatmeal colours. They are about 1½ cm thick and in three layers - a hard back, an underlay type layer and a bristle carpet top. They work out at £5 per square metre.

So, please, does anybody have any experience of these types of carpet tiles? I have used the B&Q floppy ones before and they were a sod to lay right and stay down. The floor needed a hardboard base and contact glue, but these things are a different animal.

I need about 8 sq/m for my office space so there is not much traffic. Ideas and advice much appreciated.

Oh sorry Frank..I've only just seen this.

And even then I can't help...not had carpets for about two decades.

I have used the commercial carpet tiles often and they beat most floor coverings hands downthey have an advantage that you can lift and relay them because no adhesive so the door area that gets most actionyou just lift 4,6,10 and relay them where you have little foot traffic, at £5 a square metre they are a steal, hint buy extra if you can afford to and keep laid flat as spares. spilled paint wine etc just luift a peice and put down another
