Dear all,
I would like to offer a brief and measured response to the discussion.
This post was shared in two different groups, and most replies raised concerns about potential slip hazards. I understand and respect everyone’s focus on safety.
In client communications, I have already explained the differences in use between carpet and hard flooring, as well as the potential risks associated with each. It is important to clarify that carpet does not eliminate the risk of falls, and hard flooring does not necessarily equate to severe injury. The safety profile of any material depends on the specific product specifications, installation method, and the environment in which it is used.
Following publication of the post, some comments drew firm conclusions based solely on the photo—for example, asserting that serious slipping would be inevitable. To address this, I wish to clarify the actual conditions: before and after material selection and installation, I conducted tests based on prior experience, including barefoot walk tests, and did not observe a tendency toward slipping.
Additionally, the exact flooring model, its slip-resistance performance, and relevant treatment details may not be known to everyone. Consequently, conclusions drawn from a single photograph may not fully reflect the real-world risk.
Since moving to the UK, I have consistently provided advice and services grounded in professional knowledge and practical experience. From needs assessment, quotation, and installation through to completion and billing, all processes have been transparent and conducted on a clear, fair basis. To date, overall client feedback has been positive.
I recognise that online discussions allow for a wide range of views, and differing opinions are to be expected. I respect everyone’s right to express their perspective. At the same time, I hope the conversation can be anchored in facts, information, and rational analysis, rather than conclusions based on speculation.
If there is any shortcoming in the above response, please accept my apologies. I simply ask that, when discussing professional topics, we maintain basic objectivity and a reasonable standard of discourse.
各位好， 想就相關討論作出一個簡單而理性嘅回應。 呢個帖文我曾經喺兩個不同群組分享過， 而當中大部分回應都認為存在打滑風險。 對於大家關心安全問題，我係理解亦都尊重嘅。 事實上，我喺同客人溝通時， 已經清楚解釋過地氈同硬質地板喺使用上嘅分別、 以及各自可能存在嘅風險。 需要說明嘅係， 地氈並不代表完全冇跌倒風險， 同樣地，硬質地板亦唔必然等同嚴重受傷。 任何物料嘅安全程度， 都需要視乎實際產品規格、安裝方式同使用環境而定。 帖文發佈之後， 有唔少意見直接根據相片作出較為肯定嘅判斷， 例如形容一定會出現嚴重打滑情況。 對此，我希望可以補充返實際情況： 我喺選材同施工前後， 均有按照過往經驗進行測試， 包括實際赤腳行走測試， 並未發現容易打滑嘅情況。 另外， 大家未必知道我實際使用嘅地板款式、 其防滑性能、 以及相關處理細節。 因此，單憑一張相片作出結論， 未必能夠全面反映實際風險。 自從嚟到英國之後， 我一直都係根據自己嘅專業知識同實務經驗， 為客人提供建議同服務。 由溝通需求、報價、施工到完成收費， 所有程序都係清楚透明、明買明賣， 而至今客人嘅整體反饋亦都係正面嘅。 我理解網絡討論本身言論空間較為自由， 不同意見在所難免。 我亦尊重大家表達看法嘅權利。 同時，希望相關討論可以建基於事實、 資訊同理性分析之上， 而唔係單憑推測作出定論。 如以上回應有任何不周之處， 敬請見諒。 只希望大家喺討論專業議題時， 能夠保持基本嘅客觀性同討論質素。
