Hello:

Has anyone had any experience with Legato Carpet Tiles, especially in a basement. I would appreciate any comments, good or bad. I have a fairly dry basement, I keep it ususally around 50% in the summer with a dehumidifier here in Michigan and I plan to carpet tile about 600 sf.

Also, I have a couple of uneven areas, I was thinking of using a leveling compound to even things out. Any tips or recommendation on a product would be appreciated. I plan on using Behr concrete stain on the floor before I put down the carpet tiles.

Thanks for any comments or suggestions.

Mark

Why are you going to use a concrete stain/paint?

Have you read the glue directions and substrate requirements for your Legato?

You may be scraping off your freshly applied paint.
