Wool carpets continue to offer timeless appeal, combining natural comfort with classic style across a variety of interior settings. From traditional cottages to modern homes, recent installations demonstrate the versatility of wool in both texture and tone, tailored through expert fitting and thoughtful finishing touches. Here are just a few of our recent projects that have utilised these wool carpets:

Thatched Cottage – Hereford Hobnail Wool Carpet
Installed: Hereford Hobnail Wool Carpet by Likewise, in the colour Madley, to the hall, stairs and landing of a listed thatched cottage. Each step was individually templated and fitted due to the complexity of the staircase, resulting in a seamless finish that complements the character of the home.

Bedroom – Balta Luxury Weave
Installed: Luxury Weave by Balta, in the colour Old White, in a bedroom. This white-toned wool carpet brings a soft, neutral feel to the space and is currently featured as one of our Manager’s Specials in-store, with 30% off selected Balta wool ranges.

Stairs & Landing – Elements Africa Stripe
Installed: Africa Stripe Carpet by Elements, in the colour Antelope, on the stairs and landing. The stair runner was professionally whipped by ACE Carpet Edging in a complementary light beige tone and finished with Premier Stair Rods in Antique Brass with acorn finials, adding a polished and traditional touch.

Stair Runner – Kings Hill
Customer: Kings Hill
Installed: Prestige Design by Balta, in the colour Champagne, as a stair runner. Finished with bold black whipping by ACE Carpet Edging, this combination delivers a sleek and modern contrast that elevates the overall look of the staircase.

Conclusion
These installations highlight the enduring appeal of wool carpets, offering natural warmth, rich texture, and long-lasting quality. Whether enhancing the charm of a heritage property or adding understated elegance to contemporary spaces, wool remains a trusted choice for design-led, comfortable flooring.

Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) continues to prove itself as a versatile and stylish flooring solution, delivering both practicality and design impact in a variety of settings. Recent installations highlight how different finishes and laying patterns can completely transform spaces, from statement bathrooms to expansive open-plan living areas.

Bathroom Elegance – Bev King
Bev King’s bathroom installation demonstrates the subtle elegance of Tarkett’s English Oak Grege LVT. Laid in a straight plank formation, the flooring balances perfectly with the room’s bold, colourful wallpaper and the striking free-standing bath. The result is a bathroom that feels both luxurious and inviting.

New Build Character – Seven Developments
Across new build homes in Essex and Suffolk, Seven Developments opted for Tarkett Inspirations Classics English Oak Brown in a herringbone pattern. The distinctive layout adds depth and sophistication to lounges and dining rooms, showcasing how LVT can introduce traditional styling with a modern, durable finish.

Open-Plan Living – Tim Stapor
Working with EP Consultancy Limited on six new build homes in Maidstone, Kent, two complementary LVT designs were installed across kitchens and dining rooms. Tarkett Inspirations Classics Antik Oak Beige in straight planks offers a bright, contemporary look, while Karndean’s Knight Tile Traditional Character Oak brings warmth and natural character. Both choices demonstrate how LVT adapts to different interior styles without compromising on practicality.

Outdoor Entertainment – Monk
For a bespoke garden bar, Tarkett Inspirations Classics Contemporary Oak Grey was installed, creating a durable yet stylish surface ideal for entertaining. The flooring’s sleek, modern tone enhances the outdoor setting while providing easy maintenance in a high-traffic area.

Conclusion
These projects highlight the adaptability of LVT across diverse environments, whether enhancing a bold bathroom scheme, adding charm to new builds, brightening open-plan kitchens, or elevating unique outdoor spaces. With a wide range of colours, patterns, and finishes, LVT continues to be a go-to solution for design-led, durable flooring.

Solid wood flooring at it’s best! This customer went for a traditional parquet pattern throughout the downstairs area. As wood is a natural product you can change it’s appearance by sanding the wood down and appling a lighter or darker oil. Wood flooring is hard wearing and great for heavily used areas but isn’t suitable in wet areas including kitchens and bathrooms.
