First things first, Beading & Scotia are the same thing. Now that's been clarified, you're perhaps wondering what the point of beading is.
Beading is used when laying flooring that requires an expansion gap. You have three choices when laying new flooring:
Bring the flooring up to the wall (minus expansion) and fit skirting board above flooring to hide the expansion gap.
Bring the flooring up to the skirting board (minus expansion) and fit scotia above flooring to hide the expansion gap.
Bring the flooring up to the wall (minus expansion) and fit scotia above the flooring to hide the expansion gap.
Cost - Beading is significantly cheaper than skirting board. Its also much cheaper to fit as it can be secured using a simple bonding glue.
Delivery - We can deliver your beading along with your flooring and underlay on 1 pallet, in 1 delivery (1.2m lengths required).
Easy Installation - Installation can be done in minutes. Cut the beading to the length you want and simply bond to the wall/skirting.
Choice - With 100's of colour choices available you can choose to match your beading to your wall colour of flooring.
