10/10 all round! Lovely guys in the shop super helpful and friendly and so down to earth. Shout out to Kieran for sorting everything out efficiently and super quick! Super fast turn around for fitting too- James was amazing, he just got on with it and managed to fit a lot of carpet by himself in a short period of time. 100% recommend- Thanks Guys! :)

I bought the carpet for my new apartment from here, something I had no idea about doing at the time. Rob S was extremely helpful explaining the ins and outs of the process, and showed a full range of carpets at different price points to work with my budget. Jason who went to take measurements at the apartment was really friendly and followed up immediately with a phone call to keep me in the loop.
The original carpet we wanted was out of stock, so another quick trip in had everything sorted in no time, and we had the perfect carpet fitted ready to move in. I couldn't recommend the team who work

Very knowledgeable and professional staff and happy to help and spend time with the customer. Nothing was a problem. Very quick on sorting out the measuring and getting the carpets. So confident in the service we have used them twice and would happily use them again.

Brilliant service from start to finish. Good quality carpets to choose from and expert friendly advice given. Very competitive prices, we have used Urmston carpets for 3 rooms and would not consider going anywhere else. Great fitters, arrived on time and did an excellent job. Would highly recommend.

Lovely place, couldn't recommend this place highly enough. The guys in there are great to talk to and very experienced, they know their job. I felt very confident when I came out. So many carpets and vinyl.
