What Makes Us Different
No call centre and no subcontractor auctions — your Altrincham enquiry goes straight to the fitter who'll actually do the carpet whipping work.
Prices are agreed upfront on WhatsApp — nothing changes once the van's outside your WA14 address.
The same small team handles your job from first message to final clean-up, whether you're in Altrincham or out towards Bowdon.
We tell you straight if a job's not worth doing, or if a cheaper fix will do — even if that means a smaller invoice for us.
How It Works
Measure & quote
Tell us what you need doing in Altrincham and we'll talk it through by phone or WhatsApp, then send a clear, itemised quote before anything's booked in.
Choose your flooring
Where new carpet, vinyl or flooring is needed, we can supply it ourselves or fit materials you've already bought — either way works for us.
Preparation
Before fitting day, we check subfloors, doors and thresholds so there are no surprises once the team is on-site in Altrincham.
Fitting day
Fitting is usually finished in a single visit — furniture back in place, offcuts and rubbish taken away, Altrincham floors left clean.
Carpet Whipping & Edging: Done Properly
Whipping is the cheapest way to rescue good carpet that's fraying or being cut into rugs. Offcuts get a whipped edge machine-stitched around the perimeter, which stops the backing unravelling the way a raw cut edge does within weeks. Two edge types come up most often: a simple whipped edge for rugs and runners, and a heavier bound edge for stair runners taking repeated foot traffic. We match thread colour to the carpet rather than whatever's on the machine, so the finished edge looks intentional — a cost-effective option for anyone with decent offcuts left over from a bigger job.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you take away my old flooring in Altrincham?
Yes — uplifting and disposing of old carpet, vinyl or flooring is standard on most Altrincham jobs that involve a full uplift, so you're not left with offcuts piled in the garden. If your job doesn't naturally involve an uplift, such as a small repair, just ask when you get your quote.
How soon can you fit in Altrincham?
It depends on the job and time of year, but many Altrincham 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 Altrincham quotes?
It depends on the job. Where underlay is part of the work, we always list it separately on your Altrincham 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.
Are your Altrincham fitters insured?
Yes, all our fitting teams working in Altrincham and across North West 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.
Can I supply my own materials for you to fit in Altrincham?
Yes — plenty of Altrincham 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 Altrincham?
Yes — stairs, landings, winders and bullnose steps are all part of the job for our Altrincham 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.
Do you work weekends in Altrincham?
We do — weekend fitting is available in Altrincham 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.
