Why this room, this way, in Windygates
Living room spec in Windygates isn't the same brief as in a rental turnover flat or a busy retail unit — this page is about the residential living room we fit week-in, week-out in KY8. The 1950s–60s post-war housing here means screed level changes between rooms is usually the first thing we flag on the survey; stair-tread reinforcement for runners.
Our recommendation for most Windygates living room projects: 80/20 wool twist. It's the spec that hits the price/lifespan sweet-spot for this room and this housing type — but we bring samples of all three options on the survey so you can compare in your own light.
