Calculations are based on a wall-to-wall installation and taking into consideration the interlock loss of each product, cutting and trimming of the tiles may be necessary in this case. If you are calculating for an island installation, the quantity might be more than needed.

Our raised carpet tiles for the basement provide you with both durability and a pleasing look. This allows for significant versatility in how you use them. They work equally well for use at home, in a commercial setting, or for a trade show floor.
Select either a gray or tan color in our modular carpet squares, which is the perfect neutral color for installation in almost any location. These are trendy colors for flooring, making it easy to match the decor of items you already own.
To add to the desirable look of the final layout, we offer click-in border pieces that connect securely to each tile. This ramped border enhances safety by reducing the trip hazard for an island installation, while also creating a finished look.
These floor tiles use recycled plastic bottles to create the attractive berber-like carpet fibers, making this an eco-friendly selection.
Easy-to-Install Modular Carpet Tiles
The design for our carpet tiles for a basement has an emphasis on making them a DIY installation job. This saves you money versus trying to install a roll of carpet where you may have to hire a professional or have special tools on hand to drill into concrete.
Our raised carpet tile pieces clip together with an interlocking loop and tab system that simplifies the install. This is the best tile for a novice looking to cover a residential basement with carpeting.
You do not need glue or adhesive to do the work, further simplifying the process. The design makes the tiles extremely portable, too, so you can assemble and disassemble them wherever a temporary floor is needed.
The carton contains both vertical and horizontal orientations of the nap. The carton has half of each type of orientation. Install them in alternating orientations to yield a quarter-turn pattern.
Rather than laying them with the orientation matching throughout the room, which would make these variations in grains more noticeable, alternating delivers the most desirable looks in the patterns.
Comfortable Basement Carpet Squares
Basements often have cold concrete floors. Our basement floor tiles solve this problem by generating a warm, comfortable floor on concrete.
The carpeting yields the ideal buffer when kids will be playing on the floor. It yields a softer flooring material than what’s typically available to go directly over concrete, too.
Carpet Tiles for Basement
Trust our raised carpet tile to deliver an ideal level of performance in areas that may have some dampness, such as basements or a laundry room.
Whether you have concerns over dampness seeping through the concrete foundation block or over a leak from a washing machine leaving moisture behind, these raised floor carpet tiles can withstand it.
Each floating tile consists of a plastic base that supports the carpeting layer. We use pegs to lift the base a fraction of an inch to allow air to move under the tile, helping to evaporate any moisture in the area.
Disclaimer
Color variation is possible from lot to lot, even within the same order.
Maintenance
Vacuum as needed.

Ships in cartons via ground service, larger orders may ship via freight delivery.
Q: Can these tiles support heavy objects such as couches and entertainment centers?
A: Yes, these carpet floor tiles can support common household furniture. Take a look at how this customer used the carpet tiles in his basement.
Q: We have these in our basement and have had them for a few years. We absolutely love the floor, and it has held up well. We just had flooding in the basement, and the tile was covered with water for a short time until we got it pumped out. Will they dry, or do we need to pull up the whole floor?
A: I would power wash them clean, then stand them on end and let them dry out; they should be fine.
Q: Can you put a pool table on the carpet tiles?
A: We recommend using plastic coasters underneath the feet in this case.
Q: Can this product be installed over existing carpet, such as at a trade show or convention center?
A: Yes, this raised carpet tile can be installed over existing carpeting and is a great solution for portable flooring.
Q: Can you place a washer and dryer on top of these tiles?
A: That might be a little too heavy; these have not been tested to that degree.
Q: Can the tile be cut to make a perfect fit up to a wall?
A: Yes, the tiles can be cut with a table saw or utility knife. You may find this installation video helpful for cutting your carpet tiles.
Q: I'd like to install these over a slightly uneven concrete basement floor. Should we use an underlayment? We live in the northeast, so the concrete floor gets very cold. I'm worried about condensation.
A: You can do a moisture test on your basement floor first to determine if moisture is coming up through the concrete from below. A rubber underlayment will make the tiles quieter and the floor softer.
Q: Can these be used on slightly bumpy or uneven concrete floors?
A: Yes, but it depends on how uneven the surface is.
Q: Is it soft enough for a baby? If juice spills on it, does it go through the cracks?
A: Yes, liquids can go in between the cracks, and I would use a baby mat with an infant.
Q: We live in an RV, and the floor gets cold in the winter. Will these tiles provide any insulation? Also, the flooring we have is similar to the Formica-type floors you'd find in any average kitchen; will these tiles stick to it or slide on it, mar the surface, or discolor it?
A: The tiles will provide some insulation from the cold subfloor. The tiles can be installed directly over the subfloor and should not slide, stick, or discolor the surface.
Q: Will these hold up to high heels?
A: Yes, these tiles will hold up to high heels.
Q: Can these tiles be used for a home gym with a weight bench, treadmill, peloton, etc.?
A: These tiles are not designed to take the weight of dropping free weights, but they can withstand the weight of static exercise equipment.
Q: Can you steam clean these?
A: We do not have experience with steam cleaning these tiles and therefore would not recommend this, as we are not certain how this would affect the adhesive.
Q: Would you suggest using the basement carpet tiles in a residential living area?
A: Yes, you could use the carpet tiles for a residential living area.
Q: Do these have a tapered edge to prevent tripping?
I give the product and my experience with Greatmats 5 stars. I am using the carpet tile flooring as an exercise ''mat'' in my condo. I wanted to add this extra layer in order to dampen sounds for my neighbor below. This product fit the bill. It was very easy to assemble, delivery was quick, and customer service was great.

I love this product. It was easy to install myself with the use of a table saw. You could rent one but with the cash I saved after watching a few u tube videos, I rewarded myself with the purchase of a new one. I started in the corner and worked my way down the room. I placed a 1,000 pound gun safe on it with no issues of dipping or dimpling. I dropped in some floor board trim on the edges and cut the tricky corners and closet pieces etc. with the saw and soon it was done after a few hours. I occasionally used a mallet to tap in but mostly snapped in and stepped on it as I reached for the next square. Great product, great company with great service. I am a real customer with real pictures from my basement and I say this product is a pleasure to work with and it seems very strong and should last a very long time.

Floor installation doesn't come any easier than this. Like Lego its just snaps together. Mine was a basement installation where there are times a little water comes in through the walls but with the carpet elevated on these plastic tiles there are no worries. I have looked for years for a solution to this problem and this is the ticket. The only problem with these tiles is there is a slight noise when you walk on them but this is a combination of a unlevel floor and the hollow space under the tile which magnifies the sound. We are looking into a throw rug to baffle the sound. Additionally if there is flooding you can remove the tiles wash them and return them back into service, how cool is that. Your sales rep Joanne was a great help and went out of her way to help me with the purchase. The tiles are made of excellent materials and once you get the installation technique down the installation is very fast. The only slow portion of the installation is the trim pieces which I cut using my table saw and a coping saw. Now that I have one bedroom done I will be purchasing more for the other rooms.

From the initial inquiry, to the flooring itself after installation, every part of this order was great. Customer service was excellent (thank you, Beth!) and installation was incredibly easy -- probably the easiest part of the whole job, they just snap into place. The tiles cut clean on the table saw, and rolling heavy cabinets off and on the floor has not caused any problems, even on the side ramps. I can not recommend Greatmats enough. Thank you!
