Factors that affect cost

  • Room size and shape — irregular or L-shaped rooms produce more waste
  • Carpet quality and pile type — budget carpets start at £5/m², luxury at £30+/m²
  • Whether old carpet needs removing and disposing of
  • Furniture moving requirements during fitting

💡 Money-saving tips

  • 1.Buy carpet and underlay separately — fitters often mark up carpet supply significantly
  • 2.Get quotes that include grippers, threshold bars, and door trimming
  • 3.Always use quality underlay — it extends carpet life and improves comfort underfoot
  • 4.Book in winter when carpet fitters are typically less busy and more negotiable on price
