Molding Specification

IMPORTANTS~!!! PLEASE READ~!!! 

Blending COLOR Rule: Where wood flooring transitions into support moldings (i.e., stair treads, stair nosing, reducer’s, T-molds, end caps etc.) pick boards that better blend to the color tone of the molding to avoid a drastic change in color tones between the trim molding and the floor.  If Failure to abide by these, which results in a mismatch in color tones between the flooring and the stair nose trims, which results in rejection by the end-user, will not be warranted by KP Custom Finishes. KP Custom Finishes WILL NOT be responsible for the replacement costs for the trims, and/or the labor to remove and reinstall new trims.
