Which type of carpet is best for your chosen room, your lifestyle and your interior style? With the expert knowledge of our professionals, we can tell which carpet is most suited to the different areas of your home. The great thing about the carpets in our range is their versatility, with many styles suiting more than one room.

Living room
Carpet is perfect for the living room because it feels warm and soft underfoot. Saxony carpets are a popular lounge carpet as they have a deeper, more luxurious pile and twist carpets work well as they are a perfect mix of comfort and durability. loop carpets will suit your lounge but not if you have dogs or cats with claws that can catch.

Bedroom
Like the lounge, carpet is ideal for bedrooms. With a lot of time spent barefoot in a bedroom you can afford for your carpet to be more luxuriously soft and comfortable than practical. So again, soft Saxony carpets are perfect. Want a bit of luxury? Velvet ...
... carpets with their rich texture and colours will really indulge your feet – and your eyes.

Hall, Stairs & Landing
The hall, stairs and landing are high wear, busy areas which require a carpet that can withstand regular comings and goings, especially in family homes. Twist, plain and textured carpets made from Polypropylene, Polyamide or wool are ideal for these spaces because they offer a blend of comfort and practicality. Consider stripes for extra impact on stairs.

Dining Room
Whether you host occasional dinner parties or enjoy regular family meals in the dining room, we recommend a stain-resistant carpet to remove the worry of accidental spills. Wool carpets are easy to clean while polypropylene carpet can be cleaned with a bleach solution.

Bathroom
Although not an obvious choice for the bathroom, there are carpets available which can deal with the challenges of this wet zone. Look for plain stain-resistant carpets with a waterproof gel backing. Use carpet to transform a cold bathroom into an inviting space.

Kitchen
Like the bathroom, the kitchen is an area prone to staining but which also can be the busiest room in the home. Choose one of our specialist carpets for this area which can deal with the high traffic and staining of everyday family life. Update the heart of your home with carpet.
