A power stretcher would be your best bet.

Stairods easy shim and a Z bar

It’s sloppy and loads of fitters do it that way as it’s quicker. But it leads to heel & toe wear. It’s probably not grippers correctly and that’s why it’s loose as well.

Did you see them do the prep? Did they put underlay on the riser ?

Also you need a clean sub floor if using a water mix smoothing compound. No contamination of old adhesive , paint etc. Also if older then 1980 you will probably need a liquid Dpm.

Quickstep Incizo wood trim would be best there.

Best to go over with a 3mm coat of smoothing compound Or use a feather finish screed and just do the joints.

Have a look on the all in all trim website for cheaper trims. Are all the doorways short of the doorway like the picture ? You will need to notch the trim around the door moulding.

Defo stairods , I used a 20mm drop bronze trim today. Perfect. You can get a cheap alum ramp that will do it as well

You need to screed it 1st at 8mm with a smoothing compound. Then go with something like QS therm underlay

You must have a good water table to get away with that.

Ardex na

As Dave says ardex na , fball 1200 , Mapei na , Underlay Timbermate excel

She was. Best to change it if over 10 years old imo.

Easy. Quickstep do a nosing system with their incizo trim
