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
How soon can you fit in Porthleven?
It depends on the job and time of year, but many Porthleven 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.
Can you take away my old flooring in Porthleven?
Yes — uplifting and disposing of old carpet, vinyl or flooring is standard on most Porthleven 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 much does carpet whipping cost in Porthleven?
Prices for carpet whipping in Porthleven 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.
Is underlay included in your Porthleven quotes?
It depends on the job. Where underlay is part of the work, we always list it separately on your Porthleven 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 cover all of Porthleven and South West?
Yes. Our fitting teams work right across South West, including Porthleven itself and nearby areas such as Helston and Gweek. If you're anywhere near the TR13 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 Porthleven fitters insured?
Yes, all our fitting teams working in Porthleven and across South 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.
Do you fit stairs and landings in Porthleven?
Yes — stairs, landings, winders and bullnose steps are all part of the job for our Porthleven 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.
