8mm crumb is the usual call for Bexleyheath bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.
- Doorway transitions
Most large 1930s and 1950s semis doorways here need a bevelled bar rather than a Z-bar to clear the carpet next door.
- Bullnose or square nosings — both templated individually
- 10mm PU underlay to kill footfall noise into bedrooms
- Re-cut grippers for older shallow treads
- Tight seam at the landing pivot — no visible joins
