Setting new pan on Amtico floor

[Steelmasons]

Drill and plug.....use 2 1/2" x 12 brass screws........it ain't rocket science FFS..

more traditional screws that go directly into floor so some faff in marking / moving and drilling accurately.

tbh what faff is that

with bog in position drill through hole in dead centre of hole at slight angle so u can screw up properly ( with bog protected with gaffer tape around hole to prevent scratching which i don't do now ) , put screw into plug a little bit ( so not to widen plug much ) and make sure STRAIGHT and place plug and screw together through hole in bog feeling for hole in same direction you drilled , using heel of palm on screwdriver to drive the plug & screw into the hole making sure the plug is fully home ONLY ( take tape of ) then screw up .

just a quick guide obviously being careful not to damage bog and not tightening the screw to much . i have been using this method for years with no damage and works 99% of the time oh and use brass screws .

If you glue the bog to the amtico , it's only as strong as the bond between the amtico and the floor. Screws are best.
