Successful flooring projects start with careful planning. Whether you’re updating a single room or renovating your entire home, proper planning ensures smooth installation and results you will love.
Creating Your Room PlanStart by drawing a simple floor plan showing the room’s shape and dimensions. Include doorways, windows, radiators, and any fixed features like fireplaces or built-in furniture. This plan helps you visualise how the flooring will work with your space and identify any potential challenges. Consider the flow between rooms and whether you want matching flooring throughout or defined zones with different materials. Think about how natural light affects colour choices and how the flooring will complement your existing décor.
Understanding Flooring WidthsMost carpets come in 4-metre or 5-metre widths. Understanding these standard sizes helps minimise joints and waste. Sometimes choosing a different carpet width can significantly reduce costs or improve the finished appearance. For rooms wider than standard carpet widths, joins are inevitable. Our experienced fitters position joints in less visible areas and ensure perfect pattern matching where possible.
Installation ConsiderationsFactor in furniture removal, subfloor preparation, and installation timing when planning your project. Some flooring types require acclimatisation time, while others can be fitted immediately. Consider underlay quality as it significantly affects comfort, insulation, and carpet longevity. The right underlay provides cushioning, sound reduction, and thermal insulation while protecting your carpet investment.
