Carpet Whipping & Edging in Selly Oak, West Midlands
From B29 terraces to new-build estates on the edge of town, our carpet whipping service in Selly Oak is built around one idea: do it once, do it properly. We measure accurately so you don't overbuy materials, fit with the correct underlay for each room, and finish edges so they stay put for years. Selly Oak bookings are handled by the same regional team that covers Bournville and Weoley Castle, so local knowledge — parking, property quirks, disposal rules in West Midlands — comes as standard, not an afterthought tacked on to a national call centre script. That means fewer surprises, fewer call-backs, and a finish that still looks right long after the fitters have driven off to the next job.

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.
The same small team handles your job from first message to final clean-up, whether you're in Selly Oak or out towards Bournville.
Prices are agreed upfront on WhatsApp — nothing changes once the van's outside your B29 address.
We measure and assess properly before we quote, so Selly Oak customers aren't paying for guesswork or getting caught out on the day.
How It Works
Measure & quote
Send a few photos and measurements from your B29 property and we'll price the job properly, not with a vague ballpark figure.
Choose your flooring
If the job needs new materials, we'll talk you through samples and price points so you're not guessing what carpet whipping will actually look like in your home.
Preparation
We confirm access, parking and timings for your B29 address in advance, so the crew turns up ready to start straight away.
Fitting day
The crew works methodically through each room, checking seams, trims and finishes before asking you to walk the job with them.
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
Can you take away my old flooring in Selly Oak?
Yes — uplifting and disposing of old carpet, vinyl or flooring is standard on most Selly Oak 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 Selly Oak?
Yes — stairs, landings, winders and bullnose steps are all part of the job for our Selly Oak 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.
How soon can you fit in Selly Oak?
It depends on the job and time of year, but many Selly Oak 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 work weekends in Selly Oak?
We do — weekend fitting is available in Selly Oak 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 much does carpet whipping cost in Selly Oak?
Prices for carpet whipping in Selly Oak 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 Selly Oak quotes?
It depends on the job. Where underlay is part of the work, we always list it separately on your Selly Oak 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 Selly Oak and West Midlands?
Yes. Our fitting teams work right across West Midlands, including Selly Oak itself and nearby areas such as Bournville and Weoley Castle. If you're anywhere near the B29 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.
