Stair & Hall Runner Belgravia SW1
Handmade stair and hall runners in BelgraviaCavendish deVere design and create custom and bespoke stair runners in Belgravia SW1X SW1V. Almost all types of carpet can be used to make a runner - sisal, seagrass, coir and jute and of course, traditional flat-weave carpets and stripes etc. We design, supp;ly and fit runners for homes, apartments and hotels in Belgravia. |
The processWhile a straight set of stairs is a fairly straight forward proposition, if you have winders - stairs that go around corners, then you will need a template and then we will need to come to visit you in Belgravia. We measure the flights of stairs, we bring samples and we discuss your requirements. At this stage many of our designer and architect clients will provide us with a design. |
Post quoteOnce you have accepted the quote and depending on the complexity of the design and the staircase (if it has stripes or winding stairs for example), we will 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. |
