Berber Carpet Fitting in Mottingham — common questions
A single claw can catch a loop. For Mottingham 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 1920s cottage-estate terraces and post-war infill 1920s cottage-estate terraces flights across Mottingham.
Wool berbers hold shape and feel warmer; polypropylene berbers are stain-friendly and cheaper. Most SE9/BR7 customers pick wool for lounges, poly for hallways.
Far less than a saxony — that's the main reason people in Mottingham choose them for open-plan spaces where the light catches every line.
