Report
Absolute pleasure to deal with. Turned up on time for initial quotation and provided a competitive quote and advice on flooring choices. Booked me in quickly for fitting. Fitting was carried out on time and in a professional and courteous manner. Very happy with the final flooring. Will be back soon to get the rest of the house sorted!

Report
We have been using Eric Wright carpets for over 35 years and have never once been disappointed. We have had 2 carpets and kitchen flooring laid over the past 3 days. The fitters arrived on time, were pleasant and well mannered and nothing was too much trouble for them, we consider this to be a first class service and would thoroughly recommend to anyone. Carry on the good work!

Report
Eric Wright were recommended by a member of my family. Recently I bought my first house and their team were fantastic in fitting my new bedroom carpet, they are so helpful in the shop and the fitters were friendly and in and out within no time at all. Would definitely use them every time.
