Instructions

-
1
Sweep or vacuum the concrete floor to remove dirt and dust. Mop the floor with water and a mild soap. Allow the floor to dry. Carpet tiles affix better to clean, dry surfaces.
-
2
Measure the length and width of the room with a tape measure. Mark the mid-way points of the length and width with chalk.
-
3
Draw a straight vertical chalk line, using a chalk line reel, starting at the length midpoint to divide the room in two. Draw a straight horizontal chalk line at the width midpoint to divide the room into quarters.
-
4
Place a carpet tile in each of the four quadrants so they all touch the midpoint of the room. Create a pattern of rows outward from the four centered tiles.
-
5
Peel the backing off the carpet tiles one at a time or add one dollop of releasable adhesive onto each corner of the tiles.
-
6
Line each tile flush with the one next to it. Apply pressure so the carpet sticks to the concrete floor.
