Before we quote a carpet job in Charlton
- Stair nosings
Older Charlton stairs often have shallow treads — we re-cut grippers rather than force a standard kit.
- Doorway transitions
Most victorian village terraces doorways here need a bevelled bar rather than a Z-bar to clear the carpet next door.
- Underlay choice
8mm crumb is the usual call for Charlton bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.

Stain-Resistant Carpet in Charlton — common questions
Yes — modern solution-dyed nylon is barely distinguishable from a wool blend underfoot. The old "plastic" feel is 15 years out of date.
10 years on the ranges we fit most in SE7 — covers common household staining but not pet urine (that needs a specific pet-treated range).
Wool resists dirt but holds dye — red wine and coffee will stain permanently. For a Charlton family home we usually steer wool to bedrooms and put solution-dyed nylon in the living areas.
On solution-dyed ranges, yes — 1:10 household bleach and water is the manufacturer's recommendation for stubborn stains. Colour survives because it's built into the fibre, not printed on top.
