Hither Green utility rooms — fitted with Wool carpet
The utility room in a corbett estate victorian terrace sees more traffic than people think, and SE13 is no different. We fit Wool carpet across Hither Green every month — mostly in Victorian terraces (including the Corbett estate) plus small period conversions-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 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.

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 Wool carpet anyway, we'll explain the trade-offs before ordering.
