Abstract: An easy-to-install and remove flooring system comprises three components: 1) a plurality of rolled-out liners, 2) a plurality of tiles, particularly resilient tiles, and 3) an adhesive adhering the tile to the liner. A grid pattern matching the size of the tiles is printed on the liner to enable easy centering and balancing of the tile in the room. The edge portions of adjacent liners are adjacent or overlapped. At least some of the tiles are adhered to two of the liners.

Abstract: Pattern match indicators are embedded in the pattern design in the selvage edge portion of adjacent flooring sheets. The pattern match indicators are spaced apart with the distance between the adjacent pattern match indicators equal to the repeat length of the pattern design. In one embodiment the pattern mark indicators may appear as small bars approximately ¼? wide and approximately ½? to approximately ?? in length. Prior to cutting off the selvage edge portions, the adjacent flooring sheets are laid with the edge portion of one flooring sheet overlapping the other flooring sheet. The pattern match indictors are located with the pattern match indicators collinear with respect to the across-machine direction and with a gap of predetermined dimension between them.
