Carpeted stairs: the pros and cons

Do you feel like there’s something not quite right with your Wellington carpets? Do you feel as though your Wellington carpet installation could have been a lot smoother?

In order to achieve this transformation, corners tend to be cut; walls are painted and insulation is stuffed into walls and roofs in the hope of achieving some semblance of shininess, newness and warmth. Unfortunately, renovations really ought to start from the ground up if they are to be effective, both stylishly and practically.

And by the ground up, we, of course, mean your carpets!

The top reasons why you haven’t updated your Wellington carpets (yet)

We’re two months into 2019, can you believe it? Was this the year that you promised you’d get stuck into some much-needed renovations? No matter how much you paint and polish your house, or how many fancy new furnishings you install, nothing refreshes a home quite like a fresh floor of Wellington carpets. The dusty, musty and worn carpets of old can clear the way for fluffy new floors – perhaps with a lighter and brighter colour to really lift the overall appearance of your home.

While new Wellington carpets might sound like a good idea, we usually find that most of our clients put off the installation due to the stress that they believe the process must involve. Before you picture where and how you’ll shift your furnishings to make way for fresh floors, we suggest you read this blog…
