Bathroom in carpet

hi guys, Did a Full prep bathroom in carpet yesterday morning. Used hot melt to stick the gripper as the customer didn't want me to nail or drill the floor, double banked the gripper because it is much stronger than just a single bank and hot melt aint the strongest bond out there plus the carpet was really stiff and i just felt it would give a better finish! Took these on my phone sorry they aren't very good quality!

 

Nice work matey

 

Good work there :thumbs Do many people still get bathroom carpets?

 

Cheers lads, yeah still fit a fair bit of carpet in bathrooms, I think the older generation like there carpet and the the young ones seem to prefer there hard floors.

 

In fact ive seen a few old peeps driving minis lately(very late for them),hows your freebie Daniel?.

 

Not got it yet mate, but made some room for it on the driveway or should that be mantle place Matt?

 

Better go put the van back on the drive then! Cheers Matt.

 

Nice job, wots the spiky tool thing.

Steve.

 

That would be the Crain hand stretcher, basically it stretches the carpet where you can't get fit your stretcher in. Hope that explains it.

 

Nice work Daniel, i was wondering about the spikey tool aswell, where do you get them mate?

 

It looks like a MINI version of a gardening tool.Nice work too.

 

I got the hand stretcher from Sweeney Todd it was about £15 quid!

 

thanks Daniel, Daniel your,e a star! wasn,t that an Elton John song!

 

nice neat job.... was interesting to see you put down 2 rows of gripper which is something i wouldnt normally do.

and now i read why you did. thatll teach me to not just look at the pictures in the future lol

 

prefer to use a waffle back bathroom carpet double stick never had a problem this way also stops any shrinkage, and water penetration.

 

Good job, that. If I hadn't seen the prep photos, I'd have sworn it was double stuck, it's as flat as a witch's tit.

 

good finish. that must have took some time doing the gripper take it ur on a rate then...?

 

Thanks mate! I mainly do supply and fit, so I make abit off that aswell!

 

Nice prep Dannyboy.
