# How to Cut Peel N' Stick Tiles
When tiling a floor with peel n' stick tiles, you always begin applying tiles in the center of the room and work your way outward. Eventually, you will reach the edge of the floor, which probably won't require an application of full tiles. In that instance, you will need to cut the peel n' stick tiles so they will fit the outer perimeter of the floor.
Things You'll Need
- Pencil
- Straight edge
- Scissors or utility knife

1
Place a peel n' stick tile directly on top of a full tile closet to the wall. Do not peel away the adhesive backing.
-
2
Put another tile, without the backing removed, on top of the other tile. Position it against the wall. Make sure the tile is positioned so that the pattern or grain will run the correct way once installed.

3
Make a pencil line by running a pencil lead against the edge of the top tile, while marking on the loose bottom tile underneath. Remove both tiles.

4
Cut along the pencil line with a pair of scissors or place a straight edge on the pencil line and score the line with a utility knife. Score it until you cut all the way through the tile.
