Interior tips: it's time to change your linoleum

Linoleum is a pretty cheap material, so it's perfect for house remodeling options when you're on budget.

While high-quality material can last for many years, cheap linoleum doesn't last for too long - so you can see the signs that it's time to replace it.

Here are the most popular signs that it's time to remodel your house a bit and replace the flooring.

Cracks and tears

If you see cracks, tears, or holes in the linoleum that are getting bigger, it's a sign it's wearing out.

Stains that won't go away

Stubborn stains that won't come off, even after cleaning, can be a sign that the linoleum is too old.

No color left

Linoleum can lose its color over time. If it looks faded or discolored, it might be time for a change.

Wrinkles and bubbles

If you notice bumps, bubbles, or wrinkles in the linoleum, it could mean it's coming loose from the floor underneath.

Edges go up

When the edges of the linoleum start lifting or curling up, it's a sign that it's not sticking well anymore.

Patterns are worn-out

If the pattern on the linoleum is worn away in high-traffic areas, it can make your floor look old and tired.

Noticeable water damage

Linoleum can get damaged by water. If you see swelling, warping, or mold, it's time to replace it.

Smelly linoleum should go

An unpleasant odor that persists, even after cleaning, might indicate that there's something wrong with the linoleum underneath.

Conclusion

Even though the signs are pretty obvious, it can be hard to notice them when you live in the house and see them every day.

Replace the flooring to transform your house completely and make it look better!
