Vinyl flooring lifting

[Give up]

Hi all,
So, I had vinyl flooring fitted in the bathroom yesterday. The fitters used adhesive and it lies nice and flat. However, this morning I notice on one edge it has lifted up creating a bubble. This edge hasn’t been sealed, so I have been standing on it hoping to flatten it out, but it hasn’t worked. I am thinking of putting heavy weights on it overnight. Any other ideas?

I have seen floorers use heavy weights where the floor bows upwards.

I have put some weights on (from my son’s dumbbells) Will leave overnight and see if it makes a difference.

Is it cut in to tight to the tiles / skirting ?

Yes it’s cut in tight to the plastered wall no skirting. The weights I left on top for days has made zero difference

Is there no beading for the floor edge? Show a picture, maybe.

No beading. I am out. Will take a picture later.

That’s the edge you can see curling. They have just tried to tuck it in. Rest of vinyl is glued down with adhesive

Looks like it's been cut too big, needs trimming down, no adhesive or extra weights will hold that down.

Looks like you have too much vinyl. You need to slice some off. Use a strait edge and knife to do that in small steps.

Use a hook blade.

Thank you. Had to google what it was, but it makes sense.
