- How much effort, really, does it take to install the polyester carpet tiles? I'm a senior citizen and don't have the strength I used to.
It requires more time & accuracy than physical strength to install WearMASTER®'s peel n' stick carpet tiles. Firstly, you'll have to remove the clear plastic cover off the tile. This plastic, (saran-wrap like) maintains freshness for the pressure sensitive adhesive. Then the tiles are effortlessly but accurately positioned on the floor. Accuracy is more crucial than physical strength. Make sure the tiles are positioned as close as possible to the connecting tiles. The carpet tiles must be touching each other before pressure is exerted. Then walk softly and gently on the carpet tiles to secure the adhesive bond to the floor.
- I've noticed you have several colors and textures to choose from. Can I design a checker board design? Can I mixed different textures in the same room?
Yes you can mix colors to create a checkerboard design. As well, textures can be mixed also. Please email us some photos of your design. WearMASTER® would like to see your design.
- My family has a semi outdoor porch and the area gets wet sometimes. Will this be a problem?
Our self-adhesive carpet tile can be used outdoors or indoors in a wet, dry hot or cold environment. The Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA) is engineered to adhere well in almost any environment. The carpet tiles are made of polyester. Water can't be absorbed into the carpet fiber as compared to nylon or coco fiber carpet so the carpet will never feel 'soggy.'
- Where do I start to tile the tiles? Should I start in the middle of the room or in the corner of the room?
Start to tile from one corner out, tiling toward the opposite corner. When you get near the end you'll have to measure the peel and stick carpet tiles and cut with a scissor.

The only option you may have are the carpet floor mats. These carpet mats does not need to be adhered to the floor. They loose-lay like a rug.
- My wife has carpet protectors on the carpet that we'll replace with the peel and stick version. Can we use the plastic carpet protectors for the peel and stick tiles?

- What if I want to replace one of the sticky carpet tile squares due to damage. How difficult is it to remove and replace the carpet tile square?
The sticky carpet tiles are designed to be removed and replaced. The adhesive can't be produced with a 'super glue' otherwise tile replacement will be too laborious.

- You mentioned the carpet tiles are low pile….regarding durability: how long will the 14oz. carpet tiles last –Vs- the 36oz carpet tiles?
It truly depends on the amount of foot traffic. The tiles will withstand years of regular use. WearMASTER®'s limited warranty is valid for three years. The heavy duty carpet tiles are recommended for high traffic areas like living room, hallways and outdoor patios which are subjected to regular or high traffic usage. The commercial-grade carpet tiles are recommended for offices, store-fronts, etc.
- Personally, I don’t believe your crap and bull [expletive]…it “absorbs” light “vibrant” colors…?
The fibers are made of clear plastic (PET), then dyed during the melting process. Mirrors, aluminum will reflect light while glass and plastic will absorb light. Our carpet tiles will look vibrant on a sun-lit patio due to the light absorption, truly.
- I want to buy the ribbed carpet tiles. Must the ribbed directional pattern go the same directional while installing?

It will take approximately 30 minutes to set up a trade show booth. Interlocking puzzle carpet tiles, common with trade shows, with a 1/2" thick foam or rubber underlayment are also available.
- My husband does not want to remove the carpet currently in the guest house. It would take just too much work. Can we place the sticky carpet tiles directly to the old carpet?
One does not have to remove the old carpet to apply the new tiles. The adhesive on the back of the carpet tile is thick and is applied to the carpet approximately 4mm wide every ½” apart. The tacky adhesive runs from end to end. This assures an even adhesion to the floor.
- I won’t leave my name after this question because it’s a dumb question. What is non-woven carpet versus woven carpet?
Dear Jane Monroe, of 23414 W. Elm Street…just kidding. Jane is not her real name. It’s a good question:
The difference is in the manufacturing process. Non-woven is produced without fibers per se. They are, molded or produced under pressurized heat; melted together via injection molding. Resulting in fibers that are all bonded to each other; fibers going cross-wise or length-wise are manufactured together. If a single fiber gets torn or weaken it will not affect the structural integrity of the surrounding fibers. That’s why if you cut the carpet tiles during the installation process it will not fray or unravel.
Woven carpet is produced with strands or strings of fibers. It is woven. The disadvantage is that it can fray and/or fibers can become lose and float in the air, also known as volatile organic compounds (VOC). Woven shag and high pile carpets are the worst for VOCs. Woven carpet are not recommended for those who are asthmatic, have allergies or sensitivities to air borne particles.
The left half of the above photo is non-woven, right half is woven.
