Seeing samples in your own room is useful near the coast, where bright light can make a colour look very different from how it does in a warehouse. We bring carpet, LVT and laminate options, leave you time to decide, and measure up during the same visit so the written quote follows.
Where a property has been split into flats, sound between floors is often the deciding factor. Carpet with a good underlay is the quietest option, and if you want a hard floor, an acoustic underlay can help. Check your lease first, as some buildings set their own rules.
Ground floor rooms in older properties can be cold and uneven. Preparation is what makes a new floor last, so we would rather quote for levelling or an overlay than fit over a problem.
If you are buying for a rental or a second home, tell us who will be using the property. A floor for a family who lives there full time is chosen differently from one for short stays, and knowing that lets us suggest products that suit the way the rooms will actually be treated over the years ahead.
