A professional carpet installation starts with proper preparation. We check the existing floor, prepare the surface, fit the underlay and secure the carpet carefully for a smooth, stable finish.
Room dimensions are checked carefully to plan material requirements and reduce unnecessary joins or waste.
We check the existing surface for uneven areas or issues that could affect the finished carpet.
Suitable underlay is fitted beneath the carpet to improve comfort, support and long-term performance.
Gripper is positioned around the room to provide a secure base for the carpet edges.
The carpet is stretched correctly and fixed securely to help prevent ripples, movement and lifted edges.
Where joins are required, seams and edges are trimmed and finished neatly for a clean appearance.
We provide carpet solutions for different rooms and property requirements, from replacing worn flooring to fitting carpets on stairs. The right approach depends on the space, existing flooring and the type of finish required. For areas where carpet may not be suitable, we can also discuss laminate flooring or hardwood flooring as alternative flooring options.

Carpet problems can develop over time through everyday use, previous fitting issues or changes to the flooring underneath. We can identify what is affecting the carpet and determine whether it needs refitting, adjustment or replacement. In older properties, we can also consider related Victorian terrace repairs where wider flooring or building issues may be involved.

The cost depends on the room size, carpet type, underlay, floor condition and complexity of the installation. Stairs, awkward layouts, floor preparation and removal of existing carpet can also affect the final price. London labour rates can vary from one project to another, so an accurate quote is usually based on the property and fitting requirements.
A standard bedroom can often be fitted within a few hours, while larger rooms, hallways and staircases can take longer. The overall time depends on the size of the area, room layout, preparation work and whether old flooring needs to be removed. A fitter can give you a more accurate timeframe after assessing the job.
In many cases, replacing the underlay at the same time is recommended, particularly if the existing underlay is worn, compressed or damaged. Good underlay can improve comfort, insulation and the overall performance of the new carpet. The condition of the existing underlay should be checked before deciding whether it can be reused.
Yes. Stair carpet installation requires careful measuring, secure fixing and suitable underlay because stairs receive regular foot traffic. Straight stairs are generally simpler to fit than staircases with turns, unusual shapes or landings. The carpet and fitting method should be selected according to the staircase layout.
Generally, existing carpet is removed before a new carpet is installed so the subfloor and underlay can be properly checked. Fitting over old carpet can hide problems underneath and may affect the finished result. The existing flooring should therefore be assessed before installation rather than automatically covered.
Depending on the agreed service, carpet fitting can include measuring, preparing the floor, fitting underlay and grippers, laying and stretching the carpet, trimming edges and finishing joins or transitions. Removal of old carpet, furniture moving and disposal should be confirmed when getting the quote because they are not always included.
It depends on the condition of the carpet. Minor fitting problems such as loose areas, ripples or lifting edges may sometimes be corrected by refitting or adjustment. If the carpet has extensive wear, damage or deterioration, replacement may provide a more practical long-term solution.
