FLOORING CARPET GLUES – FOR EASY INSTALLATION
Flooring Carpet Glues, glues carpet directly to a concrete floor. There are two main types of glue down carpet installation. Carpet can be directly glued to the floor, or carpet can be glued to a pad that is itself glued to the floor.
Often called double stick installation. This is similar to direct Flooring Carpet Glues installation, except that we first glue a pad to the floor and then glue the carpet to the pad. The pad for this type of installation cannot be any carpet pad, but a dandified pad made specifically for this type of installation. Advantages of double glue down installation over direct glue down are:
- More comfortable.
- More insulation.
- Stretch in Flooring Carpet Glues
Partially dressed stairs. Partially dressed stairs being prepped for runners. You can see the tack strip at the back of the stairs, and the pad. Rooms look just like this, but the tack strip goes around the entire room perimeter, and the pad covers the entire room. Stretch in Flooring Carpet Glues is the most popular installation methods in homes. In this installation, strips of wood (called tackles strip) are nailed (or sometimes glued) to the floor around the edges of the room. These strips have hundreds of nails that are angled in towards the wall. Padding is secured to the floor in the middle of the room. The carpet is then attached to the pins around the room. The installer then stretches the carpet tight across the room.
- A quick, efficient installation method.
- Pad is more comfortable.
- Pad is more insulating.
- The pad extends the life of the carpet.
- Easier to remove than glued down carpet.
The only installation method that allows the installer to effectively work with patterned carpets, especially when the pattern has minor problems such as bow or skew (which they always do).
A cut-to-fit Flooring Carpet Glues installation is not a bona-fide installation. An installer will cut the carpet to fit a room exactly, but the carpet is not attached to the floor. The carpet is laid loosely over the floor. A cut-to-fit Flooring Carpet Glues installation can be laid directly on the floor, or over a pad. If a pad is used, it should be a firm dense pad (like felt) to minimize the possibility of buckles or ripples.
