Scotia Beading is used to cover the expansion gap between flooring and skirting boards, providing a neat and finished look.
This beading is specifically designed for laminate and engineered wood flooring, which require expansion gaps. Solid wood typically has different installation methods and requirements.
The beading is 18mm thick. The length and width will vary depending on the specific product cut, but it is designed to cover standard expansion gaps.
Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
It can be fixed using adhesive, pins, screws, or nails. Choose the method best suited for your subfloor and desired permanence.
Yes, it is supplied laminated for a ready-to-install finish.
It is suitable for a 10mm expansion gap with laminate flooring and a 15mm expansion gap with engineered wood flooring.
Check if the subfloor or skirting board is uneven. You may need to fill small gaps with caulk or trim the beading slightly for a better fit.
Ensure you are using the correct type and length of fixings for your subfloor. For adhesive, ensure surfaces are clean and dry. Consider using more fixings if necessary.
Handle pieces carefully during cutting and installation. Minor chips can sometimes be touched up with a suitable brown wood marker or repair crayon.
Verify the beading thickness is adequate for your flooring's expansion gap requirement. Ensure the beading is positioned correctly to cover the gap from the flooring edge.
