What Makes Us Different
We measure and assess properly before we quote, so London customers aren't paying for guesswork or getting caught out on the day.
No call centre and no subcontractor auctions — your London enquiry goes straight to the fitter who'll actually do the carpet whipping work.
The same small team handles your job from first message to final clean-up, whether you're in London or out towards Charing Cross.
Cover stretches from London across to Charing Cross and Whitehall, so you get a team that knows the area, not a one-off visit from out of town.
How It Works
Measure & quote
Tell us what you need doing in London 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 London.
Fitting day
Fitting is usually finished in a single visit — furniture back in place, offcuts and rubbish taken away, London 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.

Guides & Advice
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cover all of London and Central London?
Yes. Our fitting teams work right across Central London, including London itself and nearby areas such as Charing Cross and Whitehall. If you're anywhere near the WC2N 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 I need to move the furniture before you arrive in London?
Not for most rooms — our London fitters will move sofas, beds and other everyday furniture as part of the job and put it back afterwards. For fitted wardrobes, heavy units or anything fragile and valuable, we'd ask you to clear it beforehand so nothing gets damaged and the day runs to time.
How much does carpet whipping cost in London?
Prices for carpet whipping in London 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.
Are your London fitters insured?
Yes, all our fitting teams working in London 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.
Can you take away my old flooring in London?
Yes — uplifting and disposing of old carpet, vinyl or flooring is standard on most London 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.
Do you work weekends in London?
We do — weekend fitting is available in London 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.
Is underlay included in your London quotes?
It depends on the job. Where underlay is part of the work, we always list it separately on your London 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.

Whether you're in London itself or out towards Charing Cross, our team is a WhatsApp message away. Mention this page and we'll add a free underlay upgrade quote alongside your carpet whipping price.
