London carpet fitting · West London
Carpet fitting across Ealing, from NW10, UB1 and UB2 outwards. The 'Queen of the Suburbs' at Ealing Broadway, plus Acton's terraces, Southall's Punjabi high street and Greenford's industry, and that is what shapes every quote we write here.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single room up to 12m² | £120 | 1.5–2.5 hrs | Gripper, underlay, one seam at most, and a doorbar at each threshold. |
| Room 12–20m² | £180 | 2–3 hrs | A wider room usually needs a seam, and a seam is where a bad fit shows first. |
| Straight staircase, 13 treads | £220 | 3–4 hrs | Each tread and riser is cut and kicked individually; winders on a London turn cost more again. |
| Landing and stairs together | £320 | 4–6 hrs | Priced as one job because the landing carpet has to run into the top tread invisibly. |
| Lifting and disposing of old carpet, per room | £45 | 20–40 min | Old carpet and underlay go to a licensed transfer station with a waste transfer note. |
| Door trimming, per door | £25 | 15–25 min | A new underlay adds height; the door is taken off, planed and rehung so it clears. |
Fitting labour only — carpet, underlay, gripper and doorbars can be supplied at cost or you can buy your own. Uplift and disposal of the old floor is priced per room and comes with a waste transfer note. Permits, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge where they apply are itemised in the quote.
Working in Ealing
What our crews walk into in Ealing is edwardian villas, 1930s semis, victorian terraces in acton and new crossrail-era blocks at southall and ealing broadway, and the mix changes street by street — Acton (W3), Ealing (W5) and Greenford (UB6) each behave differently on the day.
Parking is the job before the job here: mixed — driveways in ealing and greenford, but acton and southall have tight cpzs and busy narrow shopping streets. Locally that means narrow terraced streets with permit bays, plus new towers requiring booked lifts and broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks. Ealing sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so only ULEZ applies to the van and the quote is that much simpler.
Leases across Ealing restrict drilling into party and structural walls. We check what the wall actually is before we start, and where consent is needed we say so rather than fixing anyway.
Victorian villa suburbs built for City commuters, expanded hugely by the Great Western and the Central line. That history is why Ealing property behaves the way it does today.

Single room up to 12m² starts at £120 in Ealing, and the ladder runs up to £25 for the largest job on the table above. Floor area, stair count and access set the price. Winders, bay windows and awkward thresholds all add cutting time, and an unlevel subfloor adds preparation before fitting starts. The borough is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on — only ULEZ, which our vans are compliant with.
We cover the whole borough: NW10, UB1, UB2, UB5, UB6, W13, W3, W5 and W7. On the ground that includes Acton, Ealing, Greenford, Hanwell, Northolt and Park Royal.
Most bookings are within a week, and we hold slots that match carpet delivery days so nothing sits rolled up in a hallway. West London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Mixed — driveways in Ealing and Greenford, but Acton and Southall have tight CPZs and busy narrow shopping streets. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Ealing and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. Edwardian villas, 1930s semis, Victorian terraces in Acton and new Crossrail-era blocks at Southall and Ealing Broadway is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
Fitters carry £1m public liability cover, and old carpet leaves under our upper-tier waste carrier registration with a transfer note emailed the same day. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Ealing tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
One fitter for a room or a straight flight; two for large open-plan floors, winder staircases and anything carried up above the third floor without a lift. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Ealing postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Levelling screeds or replacing rotten floorboards, which are quoted after the uplift, Damp-proofing solid floors: carpet over a damp slab will smell within a season and Lifting flooring that may contain asbestos backing, which needs a licensed contractor. If something on that list turns up in Ealing, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
I had a huge, heavy Ikea, mirrored wardrobe to re-assemble. Adam was very polite, carefully got on with the job (without instruction guide); gave me helpful tips and also repaired some of the parts that had got broken over time. I thought this company was very professional and would certainly recommend.
I booked the services for putting together some new bedroom furniture. This was agreed for 3 pm. I got a call at 3pm to say they were going to be late and be there at 5, they arrived at 5:30. The workmanship and the guys who fitted it was excellent and they were very friendly… Read in full →
