I fixed many a loose stair-tooled step through the years. Kicked-on was much tighter.
Technique my man, technique. It's all in the wrist. 🤣
Top down of done wright is a shoulders, chest, hand and wrist workout.
I've never used a kicker. When going top down, I start center out to the left, then center to the right and with 80% of my body weight bearing down on the carpet tool, I was only hooking about 3 or 4 pins per each downward motion. Tight doesn't begin to describe it. When walking down a set of stairs your foot applies downward force, so that's the rational I had in my head, continuing the method o was taught. It's crappy technique that causes restretches on stairs.
.....and boy have we all seen a lot of that over the years....or decades.
In Daris's case, centuries. 😂
 
If you were to do that job again, would you do the stairs separately?
No!! But the job failed as a certain pattern was susposed to be in the middle of the steps which I didn't know about. I went by what was told on the drawing, where to start etc. The store owners wife and I got into it and I told her take me to court, I have the proof in the drawing. End of that account, but I did get paid for it.
 
Thanks Darris, I hope you don’t mind, but I’m going to run with that statement and share a site that provides some insight on the subject. …..Facts and Beliefs,

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/...ly-is-belief-and-why-is-it-so-hard-change?amp

If everyone on both sides, Confederate’s and Union soldiers should be honored because they both believed in the cause, then IMHO that means no one was wrong, and if nobody was wrong, then we should or could conceivably forgive everyone who participated . 🤷🏻‍♂️

Now ! If we take that concept and apply it to today’s issue’s, doesn’t the same
‘ Nobody’s wrong ‘ belief apply ? And if so ! does this new understanding today provide us with more forgiveness tomorrow ?

...good ending but almost sorry I asked.
.....almost 😁
No need to be it was a **** acc't anyway, had to always chase my money.

I'm measuring a room and don't stairs tomorrow 30 miles from town. They had carpet installed by Lowes (140 miles away)
The carpet was installed 3 times, each time a failure. They ended up refunding her money.... So she got the carpet job for free.
Still doesn't like it, but it's been on for 2 or 3 years, so it's time to buy local. 😉
.....on the phone, she doesn't sound like one "of those" customers.
I'm thinking it was a one day slapper down and get home job with 280 miles of travel involved.
