Installation Guidelines
Carpet Inispection:
Check your carpet. Compare the carpet to your sample to make sure pattern, texture and color are the same. Check to make sure there are no visible defects before installation. Carpet should never be cut before a thorough inspection.
Seaming Layout:
Review carpet seaming diagram. Seams should be placed in less visible areas.
Seam Sealing:
All carpet edges must be sealed with a seam or edge sealer to prevent raveling. Carpet must be cut with sharp cutting equipment / tools in order to prepare a smooth edge for seam sealing.
Carpet Pad:
Pad is necessary in for maximum carpet performance. J Mish recommends their all wool pad at 24 or 36 ounces or a quality fiber or urethane pad. Do not use wool pad in areas where moisture is an issue.
If there are any problems with your carpet that will prevent a quality installation, stop the installation and call J Mish Mills’ Customer Service Department 800 655 8613.
Note: All warranties require proper installation and carpet maintenance. Claims for carpet cut and/or installed with obvious defects will not be honored.
ALWAYS USE A QUALIFIED INSTALLER EXPERIENCED IN THE INSTALLATION OF FINE WOOL CARPET.
