and then filling the nail hole with matching putty. Never
attach the transitions directly to the flooring.
Important Notes: Due to the construction of the
T-molding and Reducer, they do not have enough
room under the lip to leave a sufficient expansion
space, so you will need to butt the flooring to the
underside, as far under as possible. As long as
there is room for expansion on the opposite wall
this should not be a problem. If a problem were to
develop due to expansion, it is relatively simple to
fix. The End Molding should cover 1/2 in./12. mm of
the flooring.
Fireplace hearths generally need to be framed in
with the End-molding; walls or other surfaces made
of concrete, stone, brick, or other difficult surfaces,
require specific instructions, please contact us
directly for assistance.
Installing on Stairs:
Starting at the bottom of the stairs, attach the stair
nosing (available through Wellmade) with a high quality
construction adhesive; you can also use finish nails
to provide additional support. Then apply a bead of
construction adhesive about 1/2 in./12.7 mm from the
edge of the bottom of the board, then make an “X” with
the adhesive inside the perimeter bead of glue. Slide
the board under the stair nose; repeat the process to
add additional boards to cover the step (do not leave
an expansion space). If you plan to install a riser
(vertical portion of the step), carefully remove (saw)
the tongue, and butt the factory edge to the tread.
Continue the same process up to the top of the stairs.
The landing or hallway at the top should be installed
from the stair tread (no expansion gap); be sure there is
plenty of room for expansion along the wall opposite the
stairs. For a custom look on stairs and risers, Wellmade
offers one piece 48 in./1.22m Stair Treads & Risers (See
Accessories section on website.)
Finishing the Floor:
Remove spacers (if used) around the perimeter of the
floor, then replace existing or install new wall base or
molding. Never nail, caulk, paint or otherwise adhere
the wall base or molding directly to the flooring.
Remember: when moving furniture or appliances you
must never push, pull, drag, or slide them across the
finished floor.
CONGRATULATIONS! You can now enjoy your
beautiful new floor!
