I have a tack room that has a concrete floor. The floor was poured with a drain in the center of the floor, and the floor is angled so that any water moves towards the drain. I am considering sprucing up the room and would like to use vinyl tiles. Can these be used on a tapered floor? I like the looks of the Trafficmaster brand wood tones. Any guidance would be appreciated.

I believe the Trafficmaster comes in strips 6" by 36" rather than 12x12 tiles. I would not call your floor tapered, rather a compound deflection to the drain and it will be rather difficult to get the tiles to deflect for the floor and still mainatin a good seam. Get 3 bids from tile contractors and see what they say, I am not hopeful. I fthis is in a stable you may want to look into a painted concrete surface like the kits they sell for garage floors.
