Finishing Touches — The Details That Make the Difference

The Edge

A beautifully laid carpet or a freshly fitted staircase is a significant investment. The right finishing touches protect that investment and elevate the final result from professionally done to genuinely exceptional. At Smiths Carpets & Flooring, we stock a range of premium finishing accessories designed to complete every installation with the care and quality it deserves.

Skiffers

Skiffers are solid-metal corner protectors fitted to the exposed edge of a stair tread, where carpet meets the nosing of each step. It’s one of the highest-wear points in the home — and without proper protection, even a quality carpet will begin to show signs of wear far sooner than it should. Skiffers guard against this, while adding a clean, defined edge that gives the staircase a sharply finished appearance. Available in a range of finishes to complement your stair rods or other metalwork throughout the home.

Easystuds

Where carpet meets hard flooring — at a doorway, a threshold or a change of surface — the transition needs to be handled properly. Easystuds are small decorative metal studs that secure and finish the carpet edge at these meeting points, creating a neat, safe and attractive border between surfaces. They’re a subtle detail, but one that makes a real difference to the overall finish of a room.

Stair Nosings

Stair nosings are fitted to the leading edge of each step, providing a durable and elegant profile that protects the most vulnerable part of a stair tread. As well as significantly extending the life of your flooring, they improve safety underfoot and give each step a clean, defined edge. Available in a range of finishes and profiles to suit both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Small Details, Big Impact

It’s often the finishing touches that separate a good installation from a great one. Our team can advise on the right combination of accessories for your staircase and flooring, ensuring every element works together — practically and aesthetically.
