Carpet kitchen flooring in Abbey Wood
Fitting Carpet in a Abbey Wood kitchen isn't a like-for-like swap — it's a busy, splash-prone workspace, so we plan around matching an existing kickboard line. Most Abbey Wood homes we visit are post-2018 new-build apartments, and the subfloor beneath the old kitchen floor is rarely ready to receive a new one straight away. Carpet to a kitchen is a specialist install — done carefully it looks brilliant, but it's not the default choice, and we'll be honest about that on the site visit. New-build screed slabs are LVT-ready straight from the developer; council-era boards need ply.

Carpet in a Abbey Wood kitchen — common questions
Honest answer — it can be done, but it's not the default. For a kitchen, we'd normally recommend lvt or karndean. If you want Carpet anyway, we'll explain the trade-offs before ordering.
A typical Abbey Wood kitchen is one working day for the install, plus a separate morning if subfloor screed is needed. We'll confirm at the site visit.
Sometimes yes, sometimes not — most Abbey Wood post-2018 new-build apartments have either original floorboards or a solid screed underneath. We check moisture and level as part of the survey and quote any prep separately.
Both. We supply and fit as standard (best price, one warranty), but plenty of Abbey Wood customers ask us to fit Carpet they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
