Next Floor Continuum 840 Carpet Tile Flooring

Broadloom carpet looks great until a stain or a burst pipe forces you to recarpet an entire room. Carpet tile was designed to solve exactly that problem.

In simple terms: Next Floor Continuum 840 is modular carpet plank, carpet in planks that glue down individually instead of as one big roll. That means warmth and sound control underfoot, plus the ability to replace a single tile if it is ever damaged. Squarefoot Flooring carries it and our own crew installs it.

The fiber and the build: It uses solution-dyed twisted polypropylene, valued for being stain- and moisture-resistant out of the box and colour-stable in the long run. It is softer on the budget than nylon and best suited to rooms that see steady rather than heavy traffic. The tiles come in a plank format of 50 cm x 100 cm planks. You can lay them in several patterns, including Basketweave, Brick, End Block, and Herringbone, and the pattern you choose changes the look and helps blend the tiles into a uniform floor. It is backed by a Lifetime Comprehensive Stain (no exclusions), Lifetime Backing Performance, Lifetime Commercial Wear warranty. Colours in the range include Sapphire Dust, Mojave, Muir Woods, Coffee, Azurite Vein, and Energy.

Good fits include basements over concrete, rec and games rooms, home offices, gyms, and any room where sound control and underfoot comfort matter more than a hard surface. The replaceable-tile design suits rentals and high-spill areas too.

The real advantage of carpet planks is modularity. If one tile is stained, burned, or soaked, you lift that single tile and drop in a spare instead of recarpeting the whole room, which also makes the floor easy to carry downstairs and install in a basement.

Installation is glue-down. Our own crew, employees rather than subcontractors, starts by making sure the subfloor is clean, flat, and dry, including bare concrete in a basement. We plan the layout and dry-lay a few rows to set the pattern and check colour flow, then bond the tiles with full-spread adhesive, working out from the centre so the border tiles fall evenly. Individual tiles can be lifted and reglued later if one ever needs replacing.

Decision line: Continuum 840 is the value-minded pick, best in bedrooms, quiet basements, and lower-traffic rooms where stain and moisture resistance matter more than maximum durability.

We keep Continuum 840 at both showrooms, where you can judge the colour and pile properly. Contact us for stock, see the full carpet tile range, and for offices and retail spaces ask about our commercial flooring work.
