Carpet utility room flooring in Charlton
Fitting Carpet in a Charlton utility room isn't a like-for-like swap — it's a small room with a washing machine and dryer running most days, so we plan around vibration-tolerant finish under the washer. Most Charlton homes we visit are victorian village terraces, and the subfloor beneath the old utility room floor is rarely ready to receive a new one straight away. Carpet to a utility room 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. Riverside blocks have leasehold acoustic specs — we always use the specified underlay.

Carpet in a Charlton utility room — common questions
Honest answer — it can be done, but it's not the default. For a utility room, we'd normally recommend lvt or karndean. If you want Carpet anyway, we'll explain the trade-offs before ordering.
A typical Charlton utility room 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 Charlton victorian village 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.
Both. We supply and fit as standard (best price, one warranty), but plenty of Charlton customers ask us to fit Carpet they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
