Overview
Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around Parsons Green, carpet fitting here covers supply-free fitting from £120. With 67% of Parsons Green's 7,318 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SW6 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
Room measured with the pile direction planned so seams fall away from the window and the main sight line.
Step 2
Old floor lifted, boards screwed down where they creak, and any damp or rot flagged before we go further.
Step 3
Gripper pinned or glued at the correct gap from the skirting, underlay laid staggered and taped.
Step 4
Carpet rough-cut, kicked and stretched properly so it will not ripple in six months, then trimmed in.
Step 5
Doorbars fitted, doors trimmed if needed, off-cuts and old carpet taken away.
Why choose us
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. Permit-only terraced streets, narrow front paths and basement conversions reached by internal stairs.
Most bookings are within a week, and we hold slots that match carpet delivery days so nothing sits rolled up in a hallway. Parsons Green (District) is the nearest station, so a SW6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in SW6, with metal stud partitions between rooms — measured on the walk in from Parsons Green (District) rather than assumed from a map in SW6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in SW6, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — and with 34% one-person households in Parsons Green, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Fitters carry £5m public liability cover, and old carpet leaves under our upper-tier waste carrier registration with a transfer note emailed the same day.
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. |

Scope
Sulltan is the best handyman in London. He is very reliable and professional. I highly recommend.
We did an end of tenancy cleaning service with Hello cleaners last month at Camden. The team was very professional right from booking to completion. Dhaval and team did an excellent job, and the cleaning quality especially of carpets and wooden flooring was of a very high standard. Highly recommended!
