Services
Carpet fitting
Professional installation of new or existing carpets for domestic properties. We specialise in precise fitting of staircases, awkward spaces, and reinstallation after building work. Our service includes trimming, stretching, and securing with gripper rods to ensure longevity and safety. Clients often use us after purchasing carpets online to save costs while maintaining quality.
Carpet repairs
Specialist repair of damaged carpets including burns, pet damage, and worn stair treads. We use off-cuts or matching materials to create seamless repairs, avoiding full replacement costs. Our 40+ years' experience enables effective solutions for moth damage, frayed door edges, and high-traffic wear areas across London properties.
Carpet stretching
Professional carpet stretching to eliminate wrinkles and looseness. Using manual knee kickers or power stretchers, we restore carpet integrity and safety. This service prevents further damage to backing materials and improves appearance. Particularly recommended for carpets showing 'fullness' or wave patterns that create tripping hazards.
Stair carpet fitting
Specialised fitting and repair of stair carpets, including replacing worn treads and re-securing loose sections. We address common issues like curled edges and damaged bottom steps from pet scratching. Our service preserves carpet lifespan while maintaining safe, aesthetically pleasing staircases.
Re-fitting used carpets
Professional removal and reinstallation of existing carpets during home renovations. We handle post-builder clean-up, re-laying carpets after plumbing, electrical, or decorating work. This service also includes room-to-room carpet transfers and stair carpet reinstallation, helping clients maximise existing materials.
