My dh and I are completely renovating a 1930s semi (new electrics, heating, sorting out damp etc) and want to avoid a problem we encountered in our last 1930s house. The carpets in our last house all turned black around the edges but was most prominent near the radiators.
Dh reckons its dust from under the floorboards, because the house had that really old blackish grey plaster (new house does too.) MIL says I need to hoover upstairs more than once a week.
I have no idea, but I want to sort it now while I have all the floor boards up and before I spend 's on new carpets.
Anyone have experience of this?
