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
Do you cover all of St. Katharine's and Wapping and East London?
Yes. Our fitting teams work right across East London, including St. Katharine's and Wapping itself and nearby areas such as Wapping and St George in the East. If you're anywhere near the E1W 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.
Is underlay included in your St. Katharine's and Wapping quotes?
It depends on the job. Where underlay is part of the work, we always list it separately on your St. Katharine's and Wapping 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 I need to move the furniture before you arrive in St. Katharine's and Wapping?
Not for most rooms — our St. Katharine's and Wapping 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.
Can I supply my own materials for you to fit in St. Katharine's and Wapping?
Yes — plenty of St. Katharine's and Wapping 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 much does carpet whipping cost in St. Katharine's and Wapping?
Prices for carpet whipping in St. Katharine's and Wapping 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.
Do you fit stairs and landings in St. Katharine's and Wapping?
Yes — stairs, landings, winders and bullnose steps are all part of the job for our St. Katharine's and Wapping 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 work weekends in St. Katharine's and Wapping?
We do — weekend fitting is available in St. Katharine's and Wapping 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.
