Just be careful not to contaminate the adhesion tabs, and make sure there aren't any nails (from tack strips) or significant existing floor impairments before you go right over the existing (but not carpet;) flooring.

In the meantime I have given up even with a lawyer involved, because I have to hand over the apartment to the new tenant - I have refused the offered 91 € impairment and remain on my kitchen defects and repair costs.

Avoid or ameliorate the impairment of the distressed homeowner’s credit resulting from the recording of a notice of trustee sale, the filing of a petition to foreclose, or the conduct of a foreclosure sale;ix.
