Installing Woolshire Cpt.


I have been offered a small job o woolshire cpt over pad . I have been an installer for 28 years and been in bussiness myself since for 18 of those years so I am not new to the trade.

I was wondering if anyone here has had any experience with this product in regards to seaming stretching . it has the recycled backing and i can't find any installation specs for it regarding tape width temp and so on .
any help woould be appreciated.

Re: Installing Woolshire Cpt.


Had a quick look at their website, i can not find any reason why it can not be installed just like any other wool carpet,

The recycled backing means it is made with some recycled product content in it, just like many other mills use, it should have no effect on the way it is installed.
