GMI has a long history of installing carpet on cruise ships and marine vessels. GMI can supply and install all types of carpet and underlay. Our professional installers work with custom pattern carpets and installation methods include direct glue down, double stick and tack strip. Our knowledge and experience with carpet materials and multipurpose adhesives ensures the job gets done right the first time. A typical re-carpeting installation includes the following:

1. Ensure ample carpet and materials are on hand to complete the job.

2. Tear up existing carpet and underlay keeping subdeck damage to a minimum.

3. Patching areas of subdeck repair with a fast-setting, latex-modified, cement based patching compound.

4. Layout carpet runs.

5. Install underlay (if applicable) with a quick grabbing multi-purpose adhesive.

6. Install carpet with either direct glue down or double stick with tack strip.

Ensure carpet seams are sufficiently adhered using a latex seam sealer where needed.

7. Roll out carpet seams and clip where needed. Pictures of subdeck repair, carpet installation etc. Finished carpet.
