What Makes Us Different
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.
Prices are agreed upfront on WhatsApp — nothing changes once the van's outside your DA14 address.
Cover stretches from North Cray across to Cray Meadows and Ruxley, so you get a team that knows the area, not a one-off visit from out of town.
We measure and assess properly before we quote, so North Cray customers aren't paying for guesswork or getting caught out on the day.
How It Works
Measure & quote
Tell us what you need doing in North Cray 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 North Cray.
Fitting day
Fitting is usually finished in a single visit — furniture back in place, offcuts and rubbish taken away, North Cray 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 North Cray?
Yes — uplifting and disposing of old carpet, vinyl or flooring is standard on most North Cray 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 fit stairs and landings in North Cray?
Yes — stairs, landings, winders and bullnose steps are all part of the job for our North Cray 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 cover all of North Cray and South East London?
Yes. Our fitting teams work right across South East London, including North Cray itself and nearby areas such as Cray Meadows and Ruxley. If you're anywhere near the DA14 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.
Are your North Cray fitters insured?
Yes, all our fitting teams working in North Cray and across South East 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 North Cray?
Prices for carpet whipping in North Cray 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 I supply my own materials for you to fit in North Cray?
Yes — plenty of North Cray 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.
How soon can you fit in North Cray?
It depends on the job and time of year, but many North Cray 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.
