Anyone replaced the vinyl flooring?

I have a question regarding the replacement of vinyl flooring. Do you glue it down or just staple the edges?

I ask because most RV's have their vinyl flooring placed on the subfloor before the walls are installed. This locks the vinyl flooring in place. If you cut out the flooring to replace it, what is used to keep it in place? I know that in residential applications vinyl flooring is secured with an adhesive.

Just wondering what others have done and if it has held up.

Thanks for the assistance.

  • Sort of related...a TT we looked at in the spring had laminate installed over the vinyl, it looked very nice.
  • depends on the flooring..the last I put in my MH was glued down. The flooring I took out wasn't...check with who you are buying it from and go from there.
