Vinyl Floor Installation - Step #4

Doing Trim And Finish Work

• Finish your flooring installation by checking it over carefully. Remove any excess adhesive from the flooring surface with the recommended cleaner.
• Install the quarter round. It should be nailed to the baseboard trim or wall, not through the floor. Do not force the quarter round down tight against the flooring. Using colored finish nails will reduce the need for puttying nail holes and refinishing.

• Reinstall any thresholds that you may have removed. Any flooring edge that is in a doorway and is not covered by a threshold needs to be protected. Use a metal molding strip designed for this purpose. They are available for going from roll flooring to roll flooring or tile, roll flooring to carpet or roll flooring to wood flooring.
• You should not move any heavy furniture or appliances onto the new flooring for at least 24 to 48 hours. This will allow the adhesive used on seams to dry. It will also allow the new floor time to shape itself to the floor.
