Berber Carpet Fitting in Greenwich — common questions
A single claw can catch a loop. For Greenwich homes with cats or puppies we usually fit a tight-loop or level-loop berber rather than a chunky one — same look, harder to snag.
Yes, but only tight loops — chunky loops can catch a heel on the nosing. We regularly do it on Georgian and Victorian period homes near the park, modern flats on the peninsula georgian and victorian period homes flights across Greenwich.
Wool berbers hold shape and feel warmer; polypropylene berbers are stain-friendly and cheaper. Most SE10/SE3 customers pick wool for lounges, poly for hallways.
Far less than a saxony — that's the main reason people in Greenwich choose them for open-plan spaces where the light catches every line.
