Stain-Resistant Carpet in Mottingham — 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 The old "plastic" feel is 15 years out of date.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 SE9/BR7 — covers common household staining but not pet urine (that needs a specific pet-treated range).
