West Wickham utility rooms — fitted with Carpet
The utility room in a 1930s detached home sees more traffic than people think, and BR4 is no different. We fit Carpet across West Wickham every month — mostly in 1930s detached and large semis-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, Carpet goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. 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.

Carpet in a West Wickham 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 West Wickham 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 West Wickham 1930s detached homes 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 West Wickham customers ask us to fit Carpet they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
