Vinyl Tile Floors

For rentals which do you like to use for bath and kitchen floors. Vinyl self stick tiles or sheet goods?

Cant seem to decide.

Tiles are cheaper and very easy to repair floor by replaceing one tile. But have had a few problems not sticking which I guess is from too much water on the floor from tenants cleaning or not cleaning up spills.

What do most of you like for less problems?

    I vote for sheet vinyl. Properly installed, with edges captured and no seams even the cheap vinyl looks good for a while.

    With a rental or a personal residence I would choose a much thicker, higher-end vinyl.

    Right, he would be better off with the thicker vinyl, the thinner and cheap ones tend to not stick well and will split eventually.

    Quote:What the tenants are quoting simply states that the landlord is obligated to return the deposit 30 days after the unit is returned to the LL. But they broke the contract and that clause is now null and void. d_random,

    That clause is from the landlord-tenant law. Prevailing law supercedes the rental agreement

    All the apparent aside pay $30 ma month for pp legal and have then answer the question for you relative to state law.

    Many states have treble damages if a LL gets it wrong and you screw up.

    I have several attornies and I still value PP legal for all these types of questions and contract review.

    Hopefully you have a lawyer. Have him/her look over your lease and write the tenants and their parents a letter. Unless one of them is a lawyer this will cool the situation plus if they do take you to court it shows good faith on your part trying to follow the law.
