Do you charge extra for winders?

No — winders and pie steps are part of a normal stair fit, priced into the standard tread rate.

Fully fitted or runner?

Both, and we show sample rods on the survey. Runners are typically £120–£220 more once you factor in binding and rods, but transform period stairs.

Wool or polyamide on stairs?

Wool twist for a 12–15 year fit; heavy-domestic polyamide for a 6–8 year fit at 30–40% less. Both are stair-grade specs.

THORNTON · KY1·STAIRS & LANDING

Stairs & landing carpet — Thornton

Stairs and landings take more foot traffic than every other floor in the house combined, which is why we treat them as a separate spec. In Thornton, our default is stair-grade 80/20 wool twist over a dense underlay — the spec that still looks tight ten years in.

Most stairs & landing jobs in KY1 we quote sit in the family-home owners bracket — spec picked to suit that use.

Why this room, this way, in Thornton

Stairs & landing spec in Thornton isn't the same brief as in a rental turnover flat or a busy retail unit — this page is about the residential stairs & landing we fit week-in, week-out in KY1. The ex-mining terraced housing here means uneven boards in older terraces is usually the first thing we flag on the survey; screed prep on newer infill.

Our recommendation for most Thornton stairs & landing 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.
