Linoleum Repost
Hi All- So we’re still struggling with renovating our common brownstone hallway. Marmoleum is out of our price range. We’d like a material that will last, but can’t seem to find anywhere in NYC to buy commercial grade linoleum in a roll (only tiles). Has anyone done a similar renovation? Any suggestions? Many thanks!

I just saw it at caesar’s at 596 fifth avenue. It was really affordable. Oh I did say I would remove the previous tile and luan so the install was resonable. Love this stuff. (the marmoleum)
Hey All,
We actually used a Marmoleum to cover the old tile. We did use a spare piece to save a little money. The floors were prepared with a thin board (not sure of width) as suggested on these forms. The job came out very well. The installer was Richie from Bay Ridge Tile and Flooring. We received a cheaper estimate from HD (About 10%) but decided to go with the small business. We are very happy that we did and recommend Richie highly. Thanks for the advice.
Casaer’s Floor & Carpet Center on 5th and Prospect used to carry it. Not sure if they still do but might be worth the call.
Thanks for policing my posts, CGmodern. Both OP and I are much obliged, and I’m sure both still looking forward to your helpful suggestions re: flooring.
vinca/5:53 PM if you read the post this is exactly what they AREN’T looking for…that’s why they’re having trouble finding it.
“can’t seem to find anywhere in NYC to buy commercial grade linoleum in a roll (only tiles).”
Nowadays you rarely get linoleum unless you pay through the nose. The current product is resilient vinyl flooring & sheet goods are available from several companies. Google resilient vinyl flooring.
Last time I checked, Marmoleum was $3 a square foot. That’s not expensive. But the installation might be.
If the area is not to big try to get a leftover piece.
marmoleum is a cork backed product that bears little relation to cheap linoleum..you can try the flooring shop on either 18th or 17th between 6th and 7th avenue in manhattan, but i can guarantee that it will not be cheap..roll goods cost way more than cut goods..either bite the bullet and pay the price, or accept the fact that you cannot afford the job that you want
