Carpeted stairs
Carpet on stairs can be fitted waterfall, where the carpet runs straight over the nose, or upholstered, where it is wrapped tight to the profile of each tread and riser. Upholstered takes longer, uses more material and looks considerably better on an open staircase.
Either way the cushion and the fastening matter more than on a flat floor, because a stair carpet that is not held properly will creep down the flight over a few years and show as a ripple on every tread.
Transitions and trim
Every doorway where one floor meets another needs a transition sized for the height difference and the movement of both floors. Getting that wrong is what produces the strip that lifts at one end within a year.
Trim covers the expansion gap a floating floor needs without pinning it down, and door casings get undercut so the new floor runs beneath them. Scribing a plank around a casing is faster and it always looks like what it is.
Built for Grandview Heights homes.
Grandview Heights separated from Marble Cliff to become its own village in 1906 and a city in 1931, and almost all of it was built in one burst — the population went from 1,185 in 1920 to 6,358 in 1930, a 436.5% rise. That means a compact, dense city of twenties-era houses on small lots. The 2020 census counted 8,085 residents at 6,149.7 people per square mile, which is the densest place we work.
In a house this size, continuity matters more than in a big one. Changing flooring at every doorway chops a compact plan into pieces and makes it feel smaller than it is; carrying one product through the living space and designing the transitions where it genuinely has to change is the cheapest way to make the same square footage read larger. That is worth planning at the appointment rather than deciding room by room.
Stairs in these houses are steep and narrow, frequently with a winder at the turn, and they take the concentrated traffic of a two-story house with the living space downstairs. We measure them tread by tread and specify them separately from the bedrooms they lead to, because a carpet chosen for softness upstairs will look tired on the flight long before the bedroom does.
