Before we quote a subfloor prep job in Hayes
- Stair nosings
Older Hayes 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 Hayes bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.
- Fast-cure latex screed for tight programme schedules
- Two-part fibre screed for high-traffic slabs
- Handover moisture certificate for other fitters
- Priming and DPM included where required
Bottom line: fast-cure latex saves a day on any programme.
