    Advice on the repair of the concrete floor - deep large hole in the floor

    best way would be remove all that old Dpm Then put some visqueen sheet in and lap it up the door. Then fill in with the Mapei na and granno chips. I’d then Dpm over all that with an epoxy Dpm but you could just screed it all with the na then use a decent underlay with taped joints.

    Wonky stair carpet

    When fitting loops you use a square / combination square to make sure the loops are straight. The fitter hasn’t done that as it’s running out. If you cut the sides with a loop pile cutter it’s a lot easier.

Every fit we do we change them or we won’t do the job as if the grippers aren’t in the correct place for the thickness of the carpet you can’t trap the carpet to the skirting correctly to keep it stretched. Can you pull the carpet back and see how many...

    I’d fill it flush to floorboards then Dpm resin it. Then go 9mm plywood over the whole area. Decent quality like sp101 if gluing the LVT down.
