What is in the shop
Come In and Stand on It
A carpet is chosen with the hand and the eye, in daylight. That is what the shop is for.
Directions- ·
Every Carpet Range on a Stand
Cormar, Abingdon and Associated Weavers, wool and man made, in every colour the mills make. Pull a sample, feel the pile, put two next to each other.
- ·
Full Size Boards for the Hard Floors
LVT planks and herringbone, and laminate, at the size they are laid, so you can see the grain and the plank width properly.
- ·
Underlay You Can Stand On
The difference between underlays is under your feet, not on a spec sheet. Try them.
- ·
One of Us Behind the Counter
Not a sales team. The person you talk to in the shop is the person who measures and fits.

From the shop to the van
Choose Here, Measured There
The shop is where you narrow it down. The measure is where it becomes a plan: one of us comes to your home with the samples you liked, measures every room, checks the floor underneath and quotes in writing for the whole job.
If you cannot get to Hampden Park, skip the shop altogether. Tell us about the room on the phone and we will bring the samples to you.

The shop is a showroom rather than a warehouse. Most flooring is ordered from the mill or distributor for your job once it has been measured, and rolled onto the van for fitting day.
