Re-carpet your West Wickham stairs and landing in a day
Most West Wickham stairs were built before standard underlay sizes existed. We re-cut grippers to suit the shallower treads you'll find around 1930s detached and large semis, and we pin every nosing rather than relying on tape. Whole flight plus landing usually finished inside 4–5 hours.
What stairs & landings carpet in West Wickham actually involves
Most West Wickham stairs were built before standard underlay sizes existed. We re-cut grippers to suit the shallower treads you'll find around 1930s detached and large semis, and we pin every nosing rather than relying on tape. Whole flight plus landing usually finished inside 4–5 hours.
1930s detached homes here often have herringbone parquet under the carpet — inspected first.

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.
