<p>Seam strips (50) are provided in a textile covering for a floor, wall or ceiling which are exposed and afford an aesthetic surface treatment. The seam strips comprise inverted T-shaped strips with an upstanding web (52) terminating in a margin short of the pile height and a pair of flanges (54, 56) projecting laterally from each of the lower opposite sides of the web (52). The flanges (54, 56) have holes (60) for securing, by way of screws or nails, the strips (50) to the underlying floor, wall or ceiling. The adjacent edges of the textile covering are secured to the upper surfaces of the flanges (54, 56). The textile coverings preferably have the backstitches (14) of tufts and portions of the primary backing forming an exposed surface which, together with the exposed margin of the strips (50), form an aesthetically pleasing surface treatment.</p> |
