Plumstead living rooms — fitted with Carpet
The living room in a victorian and edwardian terrace sees more traffic than people think, and SE18 is no different. We fit Carpet across Plumstead every month — mostly in Victorian and Edwardian terraces with post-war infill-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, Carpet goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. Carpet is one of the strongest choices for a living room — bedrooms, living rooms, stairs and landings.

Both. We supply and fit as standard (best price, one warranty), but plenty of Plumstead customers ask us to fit Carpet they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
Sometimes yes, sometimes not — most Plumstead victorian and edwardian terraces have either original floorboards or a solid screed underneath. We check moisture and level as part of the survey and quote any prep separately.
