What Makes Us Different
We measure and assess properly before we quote, so Scalloway customers aren't paying for guesswork or getting caught out on the day.
The same small team handles your job from first message to final clean-up, whether you're in Scalloway or out towards Lerwick.
Prices are agreed upfront on WhatsApp — nothing changes once the van's outside your ZE1 address.
Cover stretches from Scalloway across to Lerwick and Sandwick, so you get a team that knows the area, not a one-off visit from out of town.
How It Works
Measure & quote
Message us on WhatsApp with your Scalloway postcode and rough room sizes — we'll come back with a written quote the same day, free and with no obligation.
Choose your flooring
We'll help you pick the right materials for the room — factoring in footfall, pets, kids and budget — before anything is ordered.
Preparation
Old flooring and any repairs to the subfloor are sorted first, so the final fit goes down flat and true.
Fitting day
On the day, our Scalloway team fits everything to trade standard, protects your home as they go, and clears up before they leave.
Carpet Fitting: Done Properly
Good carpet fitting comes down to preparation as much as the finish. Subfloors need to be flat, dry and clear of old gripper before new gripper goes down around the room's edge. Underlay sits snug against the gripper rather than over it, and the carpet is power-stretched onto the pins with a knee kicker for tight corners — proper stretching is what stops a carpet wrinkling and wearing unevenly within months. Seams are joined with heat tape rather than simply butted, and every doorway finished with a bar matched to whatever flooring sits on the other side.

Guides & Advice
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cover all of Scalloway and Scotland?
Yes. Our fitting teams work right across Scotland, including Scalloway itself and nearby areas such as Lerwick and Sandwick. If you're anywhere near the ZE1 postcode you're comfortably within our patch, and if you're a little further out, just ask — we cover a wide radius and can usually still help.
Do you work weekends in Scalloway?
We do — weekend fitting is available in Scalloway for customers who can't take time off during the week, though those slots tend to book up faster than weekdays. Let us know your preference when you message us on WhatsApp and we'll do our best to match it, or offer the nearest available date.
How soon can you fit in Scalloway?
It depends on the job and time of year, but many Scalloway customers get a date within a week of their quote being agreed. Smaller jobs like repairs or edging can often be turned around faster than a full room. Message us on WhatsApp with your postcode and we'll give you a realistic date, not a vague estimate.
Is underlay included in your Scalloway quotes?
It depends on the job. Where underlay is part of the work, we always list it separately on your Scalloway quote so you can see exactly what you're paying for — from £3 per m². If your existing underlay is still in good condition, we're happy to fit onto it and adjust the price down.
Can I supply my own materials for you to fit in Scalloway?
Yes — plenty of Scalloway customers buy their own carpet, vinyl or flooring and book us for the fitting alone. We'll still come and measure first so you order the right quantity, and we'll flag anything that might affect the fit, like a thin underlay or an uneven subfloor that needs extra preparation.
Do you fit stairs and landings in Scalloway?
Yes — stairs, landings, winders and bullnose steps are all part of the job for our Scalloway fitters, finished to the same standard as any other room. Stairs need extra care to get safe and neat, so where your quote covers them we'll always price that work separately from the flat areas.
Are your Scalloway fitters insured?
Yes, all our fitting teams working in Scalloway and across Scotland are fully insured, so you're covered in the unlikely event anything goes wrong in your home while we're on site. We're also happy to send proof of insurance ahead of the job if your landlord, managing agent or insurer asks for it.
