Can you install Linoleum over an old vinyl floor? - My floor is 30 years old, red brick vinyl. Can I install the linoleum over it? Is it the best product for someone with allergies vs buying vinyl? Thanks. Susan »
· Comment · 11 months ago
Mark Baker While it is possible to install linoleum over vinyl, chances are, it won't be practical. Linoleum MUST be installed on a surface that is FLAT, FLAT, FLAT. So if that brick pattern has any embossing (raised pattern) of any kind, it will telegraph (show through) perfectly on the new linoleum. It is generally recommended to pull up the old and add a new sub-floor layer, or at least a new underlayment, which can be thinner than a sub-floor.
I hope this helps!

What Houzz contributors are saying:
Both brands make linoleum with the same ingredients Frederick Walton used. Namely, linseed oil, powdered cork, powdered wood, limestone, jute and pine rosin. The raw materials used to manufacture it are rapidly renewable, so linoleum is catching on as a sustainable flooring option. Some varieties of linoleum contain recycled material, And not only is it recyclable, given the right conditions and enough time, it's biodegradable.Linoleum is sold in sheets and tiles in a wide variety of colors. Linoleum has to be installed by a professional installer. Almost all applications of this product require sometimes-extensive seams. Its performance over the long term is dependent on the substrate over which it's installed.
