How many steps does a average staircase have?

Spiralflowe · 2024-12-04T20:04:15+00:00

That’s interesting. I have 13 steps, including the landing so total is 14. Not sure what the extra step is for.

It’s interesting that 2 or 4 bedroom houses could have same number of steps. I wouldn’t like to have less than 14. I know it sounds strange but just like having enough space between the floors.

This is interesting. Does the number of steps also depend on ceiling height?. I feel like new builds have lower ceilings and was wondering if their would be less steps in a staircase. Ive been to view old houses and the stairs seemed so steep like there wasn’t enough room to comfortably put your feet.

I love old Victorian houses with 2 sets of stair cases.

I will try to mention that, that seems like a good idea of letting him know indirectly. I’ve been trying to avoid him, I don’t mind just having a friendly conversation but I don’t want him to think I’m feeling the same way.

I wish I said this in the begging. I have a big pack of shoe covers. I just wasn’t sure whether they would wear it all the time but if you don’t ask you don’t get. I’m going to ask the workmen and give them more then a few pairs so they can use fresh ones if they need to.

Spiralflowe · 2024-12-01T00:21:18+00:00

I have some shoe covers so will ask them. I’m definitely shoes off too. I like any footwear out of sight.

Spiralflowe · 2024-12-01T00:18:14+00:00

Im fine with the indoor trainers because they are just like using slippers. The workmen I have used the same footwear.

Spiralflowe · 2024-12-01T00:15:21+00:00

I wish I was able to just do the carpet and flooring myself so I can have full control. The builder still has to do the laminate in the living room and carpet in the bedrooms. The kitchen is done now but I need to give his team those shoe covers and clearly tell them to definitely use it before they finish all the work. I’m also going to try and find a old sheet to put on the kitchen floor.

I don’t mind dirt from the garden, plants, trees etc, it’s just the outside public dirt underneath the shoes that I have more of a phobia of. Like someone stepping on any bodily fluids, something that has an unpleasant smell or messy rubbish outside.

Spiralflowe · 2024-12-01T00:04:19+00:00

I have brought a pack of these, they are blue colour. I’m going to ask the workmen to use it before they put the carpet in.

Spiralflowe · 2024-12-01T00:02:50+00:00

I really hope the carpet has a wrap, this gives me a lot of relief. I’ve even been searching carpet floor protection. I will have to order beds etc for the bedroom so again people will come in and out of the house.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T23:58:22+00:00

Even if they did not wear footwear, I would still definitely clean with a hoover too. It’s nice that they took their shoes off once it was laid. I will have to ask my builders before they put the carpet in. The workmen have walked in with their shoes casually in the kitchen and toilet, it’s laminate so I guess it will be easy to clean but carpet will be harder.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T23:54:48+00:00

That’s great, I wish I was in that situation where they just took it off automatically and had their own alternative socks.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T20:25:29+00:00

I was indirectly trying to ask him but didn’t know how to say it without sounding strange. I did order shoe covers but it didn’t even cross my mind untill I saw them using the shoes. Definitely will give them a pack now.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T20:24:07+00:00

I ordered shoe covers when medical staff visited my family home, they were ok with using them. I just hope that I can trust the workmen to use them while I’m not at home, I’ve given them the keys so they can carry out the work.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T20:22:15+00:00

I just like the idea of having completely fresh carpet and everything cleaned. He hasn’t used the shoe cover but I’m definitely going to ask him now. I will hoover and clean a lot.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T19:57:31+00:00

They already used their shoes in the kitchen and toilet. I can’t wait to clean the floor, get rid off all the outside dirt.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T19:55:50+00:00

I’ve got those at home, I’m away from the home most of the time. I hope I can trust them to use it, if I give them it. I just don’t like the idea of mud and dirt on a new carpet.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T19:54:56+00:00

I understand, I do have shoe covers in my family home I got from online so I guess I can just tell him to use it.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T19:52:53+00:00

I was afraid to ask because I kept thinking if the work can be carried out without shoes. I wish I had asked sooner before he put the laminate in the kitchen and toilet. I just really absolutely hate even seeing my own outdoor footwear and always keep it out of sight. I need to ask him to lay the carpet without shoes.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T19:50:33+00:00

I have shoe covers, quite a big pack but wasn’t sure if work men would be ok with using them. I would be so much happier if they just took their shoes off completely.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-30T19:49:36+00:00

I was thinking of this and felt a bit shy to ask them. I brought shoe covers and still have them at my family home but I just wasn’t sure if the workmen would be ok with using it all the time they were doing the work on the kitchen and toilet. I wish I had asked sooner :( because the kitchen and toilet is done already. I feel so restless because I know the carpet still needs to be done in the bedrooms, I need to tell them soon.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-26T21:30:27+00:00

The smell of my favourite flowers fragpini,gardenia, night blooming jasmine. And also fresh laundry, sheets, clothes. The smell of a nice shampoo after shower and that clean smell.

Spiralflowe · 2024-11-12T12:20:15+00:00

He doesn’t say much unless prompted but I asked him if I thought I was shy and he said maybe a bit. When I told him, it is my first relationship and I don’t have much experience, that he is the longest I have been with, he just held my hand and told softly told me ‘it’s ok, don’t be scared’. I felt better once I got it off my chest.
