Modular Carpet Installation

Stairs
Modular Tiles Are NOT Recommended For Stairs
Chair Pads
Chair pads are not required, but are recommended for use under chairs with roller casters.
Casters must be the flat round type with 5/8” to 1” width minimum. If chair pads are not used,
the appearance of the carpet tile will decrease. Maintenance and/or shifting of the modular tiles
will be required more frequently when pads are not used.
Replacement Tiles
Occasionally, it will be necessary to replace damaged or heavily soiled tiles. Tiles can be
replaced with on site inventory or from another area of the installation. A difference of
appearance will be noticed when the tile is replaced, however, this difference usually
diminishes in a short time.
