Many look like ceramic or handmade glass tiles. However, peel-and-stick tiles come in all sorts of other materials: glass, PVC, metal, and even stone. When you hear about peel-and-stick tiles, you may think of the more affordable vinyl and gel type that is often removable, like peel-and-stick wallpaper. (It really does work!) Explore a Variety of Materials If you don’t like the look, aim a blow dryer on it until the adhesive releases. Go for removable tiles that you can test out first. If you don’t want to fill in the grout lines, read reviews and inspect your new tile carefully to ensure it will lay smoothly over your existing tile. See if the manufacturer recommends spackling over grout lines and imperfections in your surface. Choose your brand of peel-and-stick carefully, though, as some will adhere to every indentation or lump on the tiling surface. Not only can you tile over real tile, but you can also use peel-and-stick on linoleum and even painted walls. To answer that burning question: yes, you can. Best of all, you won’t have to use a demo hammer while wearing noise-cancellation headphones because they can be installed over your existing tile. I’m not sure how hard that would be to remove over time though.These magical little tiles don’t require a tile splitter or a contractor - all you need is a straight edge, level, and simple utility knife.

My pros for this tile: THE PRICE! The fact that they offer beautiful unique patterns! The tile is renter-friendly, especially if you are able to use them without using the very sticky carpet tape.

The pattern is rather busy but since it is so cheap I didn’t fear that I would grow sick of it at some point.Would ripping out the tile and adding beautiful new tile last longer? Yes!!! But you pay for that too and it would never be this cheap. You can’t beat the cheap price! If you are on a budget and want a quick fix to simply like your space better then this tile is for you.My final thoughts about this cheap peel and stick floor tile That really added the finishing touch to the project. I was able to find enough clean tiles though to finish my project and still have extras.Īnd when everything was done, I precut and painted the quarter round molding and added it to the existing molding with my brad nailer to hide the slight gaps around the wall. Again, this tile is cheap and not perfect. Some boxes do have tiles with stains or marks on them like some of the reviewers mentioned.Make sure you have extra tiles left to replace possible damaged ones from wear and tear as time passes.This was definitely a must for me, especially in areas where the floor underneath wasn’t perfect. You might have to use other glue, like the carpet tape, to help the tile stick better.I tend to be that way but in the overall look it ended up being ok with me. It won’t be perfect and that’s ok because they are cheap and even with expensive handpainted tile this can happen. This might really bother someone who is a perfectionist.

In the end, it is impossible to match the pattern perfectly.

Rotate the tiles before sticking them on the surface to minimize odd pattern offset.Don’t EVER use a magic eraser to clean this tile (look at the photo below, it dulls the tile and is super noticeable.Things I learned while applying these cheap peel and stick floor tiles:
