West Wickham carpet — the details that matter
- Stair nosings
Older West Wickham stairs often have shallow treads — we re-cut grippers rather than force a standard kit.
- Doorway transitions
Most 1930s detached homes doorways here need a bevelled bar rather than a Z-bar to clear the carpet next door.
- Underlay choice
8mm crumb is the usual call for West Wickham bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.
- Burn and iron-mark patch repairs using off-cuts
- Re-stretch carpets that have rippled or lifted
- Re-fit lifted stair nosings and loose grippers
- Seam repairs on join lines that have opened
