How To Fit Carpet To A Bullnose Stair In One Piece  

Links in the description for the tools required

Absolutely fabulous channel. Great for DIYers sch as myself. I'm 79 and with not a lot of available cash so your series on carpeting stairs was of great use to me. 3 floors with 6 half landings and two sets of winders later all done (apart from the bottom bullnose step which I will complete tomorrow). Bought all I needed online including carpet, underlay and tools and saved £700! Thank you so much! Regards for the future and a Merry Christmas to all of you! Dave F.👍👍👍

As a floorlayer on 9 years I can honestly say I’ve never touched traditional carpet or any staircases in carpet , this video helped me complete a job I was concerned I couldn’t finish! Thanks alot

Must admit, as an ex fitter who started 40 years ago, this way is very neat, when I was taught there was no glue or staples, all inch roundhead wood pins, 👍🏻

Thanks for an excellent video and being brilliantly informative. I saw your videos 10 months ago. They provided great instruction on how to carpet a stair case. I started my staircase this weekend. Thanks to your many vids on carpet laying the results I have achieved are very good. That is thanks to you guys. Keep up the great work and humour.

This exactly how basement steps are only 5 steps before the bottom are also exposed on the sides. Trying to convince my wife to just get rid of the carpet stairs but she won’t budge. I feel I can do the floor myself but these curved steps are another issue

Fantastic video... just helped me so much. We have laminate flooring... i was putting carpet on the steps and laminate on the risers.... but it looked awful on the bull nose. So after watching this video I gave it a go and I am very happy with the results... no perfect but the family will never notice. Thanks alot for the help.

Thank you for showing how to do this. Came across your video by accident, but need to do this on my step. Very good way of explaining the way to fit that step. I did it not perfect but will do. Thank you again.

This video helped a lot, thanks! I was having a mare until i watched it.

You guys are great teachers. Much appreciated.

This is bang on mate cheers 👍

I would love to see a video on a straight landing steps. How to insert a carpet step by step. Awesome video cheers.

You should do the bullnose first and stretch away before finishing the step.

Hello from S. California, Im from Mexico and currently living in the USA got involve into the restoration industry. I appreciate you guys sharing the knowledge of proper carpet installation. I subscribed and totally liked this video, thank you truly; Ricardo Provincia Salazar, IICRC certified member.

Very neat job, you must have worked with carpet fitters if you are not one.

I’ve been in the trade for a long time. You can teach an old dog new tricks. I do all my bullnoses like this now. Works great specially in new builds with nosings not deep enough to allow you to cut net and fit cap and band 👍

Good video on how to install carpet on the first step.

Lot of video makers could learn from you guys. Actually perfectly made I think well done lads thanks

Very useful video. Thank you!

Just watched your video of doing a bull nose, it made me laugh as a carpet fitter myself for 40 years plus I could of stitched two in less time!!

I used to wear jeans like that as a young man carpet fitting, now I’m walking like I’ve lost my horse 🙁

brilliant work

Another great video again - you have great knowledge Phil 👍🙂

Or you can cap it and band it! Tread first then a one piece band for the riser! 10min most!

Well just generally watching diy and 10 minutes in this was a subscribe the banta is class and you just can't stop watching turned into a Netflix binge watch great job guys 👍 professional job done with English Class 😂😁😁😁😁

Good job shapeing carpet & pining until was fitted

Cheers lads. Just what I needed to know today!

I really want this guys come to changing my carpet there are very handsome and doing a good job

Many thanks Guys. Very helpful.

Looks good. Best way for me is do the kick plate separate than the tread.

Great video copied all your tips for carpeting my bedroom and it looks fantastic thanks 👍👍

Pincer pliers mate...it's the future, like garlic bread.😎🤟

His videos are always very detailed and helpful

Glad I have seen this because I'm doing my stairs so this will help me alot

super model carpet layer

This has been really helpful

Grrat job lads and great tutorial 👍

Quick question. I see you cap and banded the bottom step. Why not do the same to the rest of them so they all match?

Great information, use of a tripod would prevent irritating cameraman interference.

Entertaining and fun videos. Found your channel and hade to see if you in UK, works in the same way we do in Sweden. Defenetlly gona keep watching your videos. 👌👍

Great video! Gotta be winders next?😁

8:33 hes enjoying the smell xD

Nice and clear 😊✌🏼

Neat and tidy mate 👍🏽

Do you have a video for installing hybrid flooring on a bullnose stair tread?

Great help. Thank you ☺️

Amazing video Can u suggest the best nail gun for best performance for carpet finishing Thanks in advance

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience

You appeared on my FB feed. No idea why I am watching this but it's fascinating and addictive. You made an excellent job. How long did you have to train for to be able to do this so well?

Great job 👏

Duo-fast is the best tacker have mine for 30 yrs not sure if you can get it anymore

Out of curiosity why not do every step with the wrapped bulllnose look instead of waterfall??

When you split the riser and put the knife under the corner of the nose just cut straight and it wraps around perfect

You should do a fitting of a runner on straight stair and winder, you can cone and do mine if you like 🤣

mark the bullnose with a pencil. screw the stair off and use the actual stair as your template. Saves all the faffing around.

Perfect.

meu Boa noite para o mestre da instalação de piso de laminados de madeira já coloquei muitas escada de carpe piso de borracha e de madeira

Wicked chanel lads 👍👍 I'm a fitter myself and just getting back into things. What should I be charging per metre to fit carpet now days? Also fitting prices on other materials would massively help me out. Also fit Domestic vinyl. Commercial vinyl Lvt

Just had our staircase re-carpeted and noticed each step had a ‘nose’ and wanted carpet wrapped around each one. Carpet fitter wasn’t too happy but did it for us for £70 extra on top of regular fitting price (from Tapi Carpets in the UK). It looks fantastic! He told us it’s called Hollywood style and yes, popular in the US but not in the UK. We love our new stair carpet!

What size staples do you use

Now how do you do it in two pieces.

Why don't you hand sew it so you can keep the same look as the rest of stair case

can i donate you some shorts please,so you don't have to cut down your jeans

Excelente. Excelentíssimo.

💯🔥🔥

What size staples are used for the nose with the staple gun? Thanks.

❤❤❤❤👍👍👍

To think carpet fitters are on about £3 m2. That bullnose only cost about £1.50 to be fitted....

It looks great! But I don’t think carpet in a hallway will last long.

The carpet on the floor. Do you put gripper on the floor at the start of the steps. Do you have to cut up a gripper on the floor so you can shape it to the step.

Hi guys What size staples do you use and do the staples go into the top part of the stair? The tread?

I don't think it seems physically possible, not realistic at all

That pad needs cut to the edge of nose and should be done in 2 pieces not 1... this is a hack job...besides the stairs don't match...more problems with this video...learn the proper way bro... this is all wrongfrom the word go..
