Floor preparation

Our additional services go beyond the materials and fitting, tailoring the process to your specific needs. We address essential aspects of your flooring before and after the installation, emphasising on the importance of a dry and stable foundation. During our measurement visit, we’ll assess your subfloor condition and recommend any necessary measures, which can range from damp testing to sub-floor preparation with ply board or screed.

In some cases, it isn’t always possible to tell what’s underneath your floor sufficiently. Our team of fitters are experienced at identifying and addressing these requirements to ensure your new flooring is properly laid. However, depending on your subfloor’s condition, we may advise bringing in the services of a specialist contractor to help with the floor preparation and prevent any impact on the appearance of your new flooring.

Door trimming

Depending on the floor chosen, you may need the height of your doors to be adjusted to cater for a smooth movement when using your interior doors. Let us know what type of doors you have and we can recommend a specialist carpenter, local to you.

Carpet whipping

Want to ensure your carpet offcuts don’t go to waste, or interested in creating made-to-measure rugs and stair runners? Carpet whipping offers an ideal, cost-effective, and eco-friendly solution for crafting custom-sized rugs, door mats, stair runners, hallway runners, or carpets for motorhomes/caravans.

This specialised method overlocks the edge of a carpet with yarn, resulting in a professional and clean finish. We also provide carpet binding to create a more contemporary look with a single, double, or piped border of your choice.

The possibilities are endless with this technique. Simply let us know your size, shape, and material preferences, and leave the rest to us! Contact us to explore the many options with a member of our team at the showroom. Alternatively, feel free to drop by our store—no appointment necessary!
