“Jordan put in carpets for our 2 bedrooms, landing and stairs in our new loft conversion and in 2 existing bedrooms. The quality of the carpets is excellent and the price for the work very reasonable. He gets on with the job, very professional, work of the highest standard. Top class.” — Gary Simmons, verified Google review

- Door undercut
We trim doors on the day so they swing cleanly over glue-down LVT — no scraping, no callbacks.

Plank run follows the longest sightline; in narrow Blackfen hallways that means front-door to kitchen.
