Already bought your carpet?
You don't have to buy the carpet from me to get it fitted properly. Plenty of customers shop around Carpets Online, Factory Direct Flooring, Flooring Superstore, Floors Direct, Amazon, eBay or a local carpet shop for the cheapest carpet they want, then call me in to do the fitting. You get the choice and price you want, plus a local independent carpet fitter you can trust to do the job neatly.
Measure wrong and you waste money — or run short and the roll's sold out. I'll come and measure for free before you buy, so you know exactly what to order.

“Very happy with the flooring laid today in our garage. Despite it being muggy and humid, Garrie got the job done, well, and at a good price. It’s very well stuck down, and cut nicely around the awkward wobbly garage walls! Very friendly and was very accommodating when the flooring hadn’t arrived for the original fitting date. Would absolutely use again, thank you!”
