Visited and picked a carpet (from stock) on the Monday - delivered and fitted Wednesday morning. Superb service, worth paying that little bit extra. Kind staff. Clear communication. Vast range.

Report
Fantastic service! The man I saw guided me away from my first choice of a striped stair carpet as we have a turn. He explained this would result in the stripes not lining up, which would have driven me mad. He 'got' that I wanted something bold and helped me choose a fantastic quality Kingfisher/teal blue plain carpet instead. The carpet was fitted perfectly and has been down a couple of months now. I am still overjoyed with the choice and have had no problems.
