After the quote - what happens?

Upon accepting your quotation, we template intricate designs or winding stairs. The carpet is ordered, arrives at our workshop, gets cut to specification, edges whipped and bound, quality-checked, then delivered to your Clapham property for expert installation.

A tread that is used where a stair turns a horizontal angle, or shaped like a wedge or truncated wedge—basically, it is a stair that goes around a corner.

A stair runner is a carpet that goes in the middle of a flight of stairs leaving the treads visible on either side.

Whipping is an edge treatment applied to stair runners to seal and protect the edges. It creates a clean, professional finish.

A bordered runner has decorative tape or fabric sewn along the edges, creating a contrasting or complementary design element.
