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
Are your Holborn and Covent Garden fitters insured?
Yes, all our fitting teams working in Holborn and Covent Garden and across Central London 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.
How much does carpet whipping cost in Holborn and Covent Garden?
Prices for carpet whipping in Holborn and Covent Garden typically run £3–£6 per linear metre for whipped edge, and £35–£70 per rug for offcut to rug (2×3m). Guide prices — your exact quote depends on room sizes and the materials you choose. Send your room sizes on WhatsApp and we'll reply with an exact, itemised quote the same day — free, with no obligation to book.
Can you take away my old flooring in Holborn and Covent Garden?
Yes — uplifting and disposing of old carpet, vinyl or flooring is standard on most Holborn and Covent Garden 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.
Is underlay included in your Holborn and Covent Garden quotes?
It depends on the job. Where underlay is part of the work, we always list it separately on your Holborn and Covent Garden 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.
Do you work weekends in Holborn and Covent Garden?
We do — weekend fitting is available in Holborn and Covent Garden 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 Holborn and Covent Garden?
It depends on the job and time of year, but many Holborn and Covent Garden 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.
Do you cover all of Holborn and Covent Garden and Central London?
Yes. Our fitting teams work right across Central London, including Holborn and Covent Garden itself and nearby areas such as Holborn and Russell Square. If you're anywhere near the WC1R 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.
