New Eltham kitchens — fitted with Wool carpet
The kitchen in a 1930s bay-fronted semi sees more traffic than people think, and SE9 is no different. We fit Wool carpet across New Eltham every month — mostly in 1930s bay-fronted semis with a scattering of post-war infill-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, Wool carpet goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. Wool 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.

Wool carpet in a New Eltham 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 Wool carpet anyway, we'll explain the trade-offs before ordering.
A typical New Eltham 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 New Eltham 1930s bay-fronted semis 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 New Eltham customers ask us to fit Wool carpet they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
