Sidcup's Local Carpet Flooring Specialists
Sidcup sits just off the A20 between the M25 and Eltham, and most of our carpet work here is for homeowners looking for a tidy, long-lasting carpet job in 1930s bay-fronted semis. 1930s pine boards over joists — usually need a 6mm ply overlay before LVT or vinyl.
Carpet for 1930s bay-fronted semis
Most 1930s bay-fronted semis in Sidcup share the same quirks — we know what the subfloor will throw up before we lift the old floor.
What carpet in Sidcup actually involves
Sidcup sits just off the A20 between the M25 and Eltham, and most of our carpet work here is for homeowners looking for a tidy, long-lasting carpet job in 1930s bay-fronted semis. 1930s pine boards over joists — usually need a 6mm ply overlay before LVT or vinyl.
We supply and fit a full range of carpets — from soft deep-pile bedroom carpets to hard-wearing twist piles for stairs, landings and busy hallways. Underlay, grippers, door bars and disposal of the old floor are all included.
Sidcup sits between Eltham and Bexley, so we frequently combine jobs here with work in Blackfen (~1.5 mi) and Eltham (~2.5 mi).

Sidcup carpet — the details that matter
1930s pine boards over joists — usually need a 6mm ply overlay before LVT or vinyl.
8mm crumb is the usual call for Sidcup bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.
Most 1930s bay-fronted semis doorways here need a bevelled bar rather than a Z-bar to clear the carpet next door.
