A Beading (Scotia) is a type of decorative molding and can be a great addition for your floors. It is designed to be used to create a seamless transition between the floor and the wall creating a professional, polished look. However, it not only fulfils an aesthetical purpose but also aids in a more practical sense.
Beadings (Scotias) can be great for any room because of the aesthetic value they add. It creates a polished, finished look as the lack of a Beading would result in the room feeling incomplete and quite literally rough around the edges. As well as this, it also covers the expansion gap of the floor helping to create a smooth transition between the floor and the wall.
As well as being used to create a polished aesthetic, Beadings are also used to enhance durability. This is because the beading prevents the floor from buckling and warping as well as protects the wall from any bumps that it may otherwise have. Not only does it help to protect the floor from any damage but simultaneously the wall as well. In addition to this, Beadings also allow for the right amount of airflow meaning the flooring can expand and contract in a natural way.
