Provide custom floor coverings as an
add-on to protect the carpets' texture.
properly. Follow the nonskid or a
consistent patterning identiϐier to give
the ϐlooring a streamlined look.
Interior Carpet (Photo 1)-When
patterning interior carpet, protect the
environment. Apply craft paper or
cardboard to cabinets or furniture. Your
customer and your team will appreciate
this when it comes time to clean up,
because removal and installation can
be messy jobs. Give yourself adequate
lighting and enough space to work in.
Carpet padding is always able to be
laid. Just remember that if it gets wet,
your customers will have a mess on
their hands. Let them know about this
before any padding sale or installation.
Account for any type of patterns when
working with hatches inside the boat.
Keep in mind that some hatches are
wrapped and others are cut ϐlush. Glue
and staples are your best friend! Some
customers like to have custom ϐloor
coverings. Provide this as an add-on
option to protect the carpets' texture as
well as keeping water off.
Cockpit and Swim Platforms
(Photo 2)-When patterning these
spaces, you can use craft paper, Canvex
(or any clear goods) or digital tools
such as Prodim. All are great options.
Use Sharpie markers, tape and rulers to
give you those straight lines. Remember
to have your team identify the top
side of the pattern as well as any other
helpful instructions. For patterns and
teak designs, it is imperative to ϐind the
center of the cockpit or platform. With
table posts, ensure there is enough
clearance while keeping a tight ϐit, but
also leave the ability to get the ϐlooring
in the machine for binding, if applicable.
Lastly, take photos. This is so important.
Flooring Backings (Photos 3 and 4)
-Educate your customers about the
type of backings each product has.
Many customers have experienced a
disintegrating backing and are fearful of
a similar product.
