James fitted front room carpet, bedroom carpet and challenged them to fit gym flooring in my conservatory (something they have never done before) - and I am extremely impressed with all the fitters and James for such a fantastic service, turned up on time, completed all jobs quickly, tidy and superbly! The gym floor is excellent, the jigsaw pieces that needed to be fitted together in all the corners was easy for them to complete! Even filled in the holes behind the radiators - fantastic job! Well done guys! Highly recommend! x

Report
I had the most amazing experience with this company. I was looking for carpets for a family I work with and having been quoted extortionate prices from other rather unhelpful companies, Alison could not have been more understanding to my needs. She went above and beyond to help a family in need and was excellent at communicating with me. When I visited the family after the carpets had been fitted I was blown away by the quality of the carpets and how much of a difference it made to their home. This company changed this family's life and turned a house into a home. I could not recommend this company more and I will be using them when I look at carpeting my own home. Thank you all so much
