  • Stair Runner carpet fitting

    Carpet fitter wanted to use spray glue to stick down carpet? Yes he was using grippers and stair pads and bars, but wanted to glue the whole lot down to stop it from moving and curling. He used spray glue when cutting the carpet which melted the gloss paint on the stairs and he left dirty boot prints embedded in the melted paint. He also cut the carpet outside in the communal car park without putting down any protection, is this the norm for carpet fitters or would there be alternatives to prevent such damage?
