| Article | (Kansas City, Mo) Corrective Flooring Procedures Workshop is the first “hands-on” course of this type presented for the industry. The workshop covers corrective measures for carpet, laminate, ceramic, hardwood and resilient flooring surfaces. The numerous techniques, tools and resources that are available for the attendees have never been presented in this hands-on type of format. The 2-1/2 days include carpet corrections of burns and spots and restretch techniques. Laminate includes plank replacement, both glue and click and the hot-melt corrective system. Ceramic includes individual tile replacement, grout rework and hot-melt corrective system. Hardwood includes pre-finished board replacement of glue-down and nail-down, touch-up using stains and finishes and the hot-melt corrective system. The resilient section includes corrective techniques for tears, burns and gouges. Many procedures are unique to the installation side of the industry. The course is specifically designed for persons associated with workrooms or dealers who are directly responsible for customer service calls, for cleaners who correct problems during their cleaning procedures and for inspectors who do follow-up work related to problems associated with the inspection of the flooring. Jon Namba, Executive Director of CFI and well-known industry trainer in all flooring surfaces will involve all participants in working with the various correction materials and techniques. The hands-on course provides the opportunity to actively learn the necessary requirements for problem solving. The first course is scheduled at Custom Floors in Salt Lake City, Utah on November 28, 29 and 30th, 2007. The course begins at 8:00 and concludes at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday. On Friday, it will conclude at noon. The cost of $1,200.00 includes workbooks, instructional guides, manufacturer-related technical information, lunch and reference materials for future use. The advanced course which requires successful completion of the initial workshop is scheduled for April 2008. Due to the skills involvement in the course, registration is limited. Application forms are available online at www.CFIinstallers.com or by contacting CFI at (816) 231.4646. |
