Can I Send You My Flooring to Make a Matching Stair Nose?
When Sending a Sample Makes Sense
Most of the time, the best way to identify your flooring for a custom stair nose order is by providing the brand name, color name, and SKU. But some situations make a physical sample the better approach:
- Your flooring has no brand marking visible on the planks
- The color name on the box has been lost and cannot be determined from an online search
- The flooring was installed before you bought the home and the previous owners left no records
- The LVP is a discontinued color or private-label product with limited online documentation
How the Sample Process Works
- Contact us first. Email order@stairmatch.com before sending anything. Describe your floor and explain why you can't identify it by brand or SKU. We'll let you know if sending a sample is the right approach.
- Send a 6-inch minimum section. If we ask you to send a sample, send at least 6 inches of plank (a full-width section, not a sliver). The larger the sample, the better our color-matching team can work.
- We evaluate and respond. Our team will assess whether we can match the color. Response time depends on how much detail and how many photos you send.
- Order and production. If we can match it in-house, you'll place your order and we'll begin production. If your floor needs something we don't make in-house, we pass your project to one of our qualified manufacturers who specializes in that type of flooring, and they contact you directly with a quote.
What We Cannot Match
Very unusual or artistic LVP patterns (marble, herringbone, or heavy distressed visuals) may not be reproducible in a stair nose format. We'll tell you upfront if your color falls into this category.
