CARPETS DERBYSHIRE
Contrary to what you may think one carpet fitting will differ from one install to the next. Whether this is due to getting the carpet to the room itself, fitting round the walls and other fixtures such as fitted wardrobes or working around furniture since the space to completely clear a room is just not possible. Essentially every carpet fitting in Derbyshire is a custom fit of sorts but we're up to the challenge.
For supply and fit services we take ownership of accurately measuring and ensuring that the direction of any carpet pattern is as you want it and you are fully aware of any potential joins if the carpet you choose does not come in a width that completely reaches from one side of the room to the other. If you do require a joint we will fit your carpet to minimise any visibility of these joints. We can remove your old carpet and underlay too if this has also deteriorated and then prepare the floor properly. If existing grippers are in good condition we will re-use them and if not, place any additional grippers as and where required. We ensure the underlay is securely in place before starting to lay the carpet. The importance of a well fitted carpet is to have it very subtly stretched into place onto the grippers so that it is taught enough to prevent any ridges from forming whilst still being flush to your skirting boards. Appropriate door bars will be fitted to prevent any section of lose carpet from becoming a trip hazard at the entry point of the room. We will advise on the right type of door bar to connect from one type of floor to the other but there as there are options such as silver, gold or wood colours you will have a choice on the aesthetic look of these too.
CARPET SUPPLY AND FIT DERBY
When carpet fitting options such as door bars or even grippers can be impacted by the type of carpet and underlay combinations you choose we are confident we will be able to accommodate your requirements. If you select a combination which may, for example, cause a more noticeable height difference between one room and another, we will ensure you know what to expect based on the choices you've made before any firm order is taken. We take great care in ensuring that our customers never feel disappointed once a job has been completed - our transparent, honest approach means our customers always know what to expect based on their carpet choices.

Choosing a carpet
With so many choices and price points where do you start when choosing a carpet and what should I know so I can make an educated decision on what type of carpet to choose?
Well clearly the aspect you will initially be most interested in is the aesthetics, the colour or patterns to fit in with the interior design you have in mind so this is probably going to be the most emotional aspect of your decision making. The next bits will revolve around value for money against other criteria such as the comfort, or softness of the carpet versus the durability and wear the carpet will be subjected to. Some materials will be easier to keep clean than others so maintenance may also become a factor to consider.
A carpet primarily will be tufted or woven based on the manufacturing process, with woven being a more traditional way of making carpets using a loom and operators intervening more than for a tufted carpet which leads to woven carpets being more expensive. A tufted carpet will also have price variation based on the material used and whether the pile finish is a loop or straight cut end. These differences play a big part in costs and feel of the carpet.
Carpet Designs and Colours
Choosing the design an colour is probably the most enjoyable part of choosing a carpet - provided you are in agreement. At Derbyshire Flooring Specialists our carpet fitters can provide you with a wide variety of carpet options to choose from to find the right colour scheme and pattern if you are looking for a mix of colours in your carpet. The use of dyes and weaves can effect how your carpet may appear from different angles so having samples to place around your room means you know exactly what to expect. We're happy for you to take your time to select the right carpet designs and colours for your home or business. We can advice on what the price differences will mean in terms of quality, durability, feel and cleanability too, so please ask for our assistance if required.
Carpet Materials
It is possibly the carpet material choice which will be the most tricky to decide upon. Especially if you have found a carpet which has the look you were after. The material of a carpet has the biggest influence on its features and benefits so it's worth understanding the implications of your carpet material choice. There are also new materials coming on the to market all the time based on the trend to utilise natural sustainable materials too - just to complicate matters further, such as Seagrass and Jute! However, the artificial fibres have been designed to incorporate higher levels of stain resistance and cleanability making them better from a hypo allergenic perspective vs natural fibres but the compromise may be on durability. Natural wool is a good all rounder which is why a number of carpets incorporate wool content to create a blended material option which is extremely popular.
Carpet Pile
Most people are familiar with the term carpet pile but quite often have a misconception of what this actually means as in reality there are two carpet pile criteria, it does not just refer to the height of the carpet fibres. Carpet pile height specifically does refer to the height of the either a looped or cut carpet fibres. Carpet pile weight refers to the density of the carpet fibres i.e. how many there are in a square metre and also takes into the account the height too to give an overall weight rating. The important aspect to remember when choosing a carpet is that the higher the carpet weight the better it will wear - simply because there is more carpet to wear! As a result higher pile carpets (around 45oz) should be chosen for higher traffic areas such as hallways, landings and living areas whilst bedrooms will be fine at around 30oz. A looped finish will typically have a higher pile weight making it harder wearing than a cut equivalent.

CARPET UNDERLAY
Carpet underlays are an essential component of any carpet installation and at Derbyshire Flooring Specialists we can recommend the ideal underlay for your carpet. They provide a cushioning layer between the carpet and the floor, which not only enhances the comfort and feel of the carpet but also improves its durability. Underlays act as a shock absorber, reducing the impact of foot traffic and extending the lifespan of the carpet. They also help to insulate the room, keeping it warmer and reducing energy costs. Additionally, carpet underlays can help to reduce noise transmission, making them particularly beneficial in multi-occupancy buildings or areas with high foot traffic. Overall, investing in a quality carpet underlay is a smart decision that can greatly enhance the performance and longevity of your carpet.
CARPET DOOR STRIPS
Carpet door strips are important for ensuring a smooth and seamless transition between different types of flooring, particularly when there is a carpeted area meeting a hard surface like tile or wood. These strips, also known as threshold strips or carpet trims, and provide a neat and professional finish to the edges of a carpet, preventing fraying and tripping hazards. They can also help to reduce noise transfer and improve insulation between rooms. Carpet door strips come in various materials, such as metal or plastic, and different designs to suit different styles and preferences. Installing carpet door strips not only enhances the overall appearance of the flooring but also adds durability and functionality to the space. We can provide a wide selection of door strips to find the perfect fit and style for you.
