How we do it

Straight flights are easily fitted, but curved or winding staircases require careful templating. We visit properties in Tooting to take measurements, display samples and discuss your custom runner requirements.

The process - how we do it

For straight runs, fitting is straightforward. Winders and corner turns need precise measurement, so we come to Tooting homes to template, show samples and plan installations. Design professionals often share their specifications during this visit.

After the quote - what happens?

Once you've accepted the quote and depending on the complexity of the design and staircase (if it has stripes or winding stairs for example), we'll return to the property to create a template. The carpet is then ordered, delivered to site, cut to size, taken away to be whipped and bound to seal the edges or a bordered tape is stitched on. The runner is then carefully checked for defects and delivered to site for fitting.

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.
