Common Questions About Buying Carpet

Choosing Carpet

Can I bring samples from home to compare?

Please do. Bring paint swatches, fabric samples or cushion covers to help choose the right fibre, feel and colour in-store. You can also borrow some of your favourite carpet samples to see how they look in your home.

Which carpet fibre is best for my home?

The right fibre depends on how the room is used. Wool carpet offers natural softness and insulation, solution-dyed nylon is durable and stain resistant for busy homes, and polyester offers softness and strong colour at an accessible price. Come in and talk through the options with John, Dimi or Val, who can compare products across brands and match the right fibre to your room, lifestyle and budget.

What carpet style should I choose?

Cut pile styles such as twist and plush feel soft and comfortable, while loop pile, textured and corded styles add definition and can help disguise everyday marks. John, Dimi or Val can compare styles across brands and recommend options that suit your room, traffic level and preferred look.

Why is carpet underlay important?

Quality carpet underlay supports comfort underfoot and can help improve acoustic and thermal performance. We also sell carpet underlay separately and cut it by the metre in-store, so you only buy what you need.

What brands do you stock?

  • Godfrey Hirst
  • Beaulieu
  • Hycraft
  • Victoria Carpets
  • Feltex
  • Signature Floors
  • Quest Carpets
  • EC Carpets
  • Brintons Carpets Australia

If there's a specific brand or product you're after, call ahead and we'll let you know if we have it in the showroom.

Ordering & Installation

Do you offer free measure and quote?

Yes. We'll come to your home, measure everything properly and give you a written quote with no obligation. No surprises, no pressure.

How much does carpet cost per square metre?

It depends on the material, style and pile type, but most of our range falls between $30 and $120 per square metre. We'll give you an accurate quote once we've measured your rooms. The measure and quote are free.

How long does carpet installation take?

For most homes, installation is done in a day. Larger jobs or multi-room projects might take two. We'll give you a clear timeline before any work starts.

Do you remove and dispose of old carpet?

Yes. We'll take up your old carpet and underlay and dispose of it for you. One less thing to organise.

Can I order carpet online or do I need to come in?

You can order online, over the phone or in-store. If you'd like to order online, we still recommend getting in touch so our carpet or online team can confirm the details and generate an online invoice, giving you more ways to pay.

What does the carpet installation process involve?

We take care of everything, from the initial measure and quote through to laying the carpet and removing your old flooring. Come in, choose your carpet, and we'll organise the rest.

Do you do commercial carpet jobs?

Yes. We supply and install carpet for offices, retail spaces, hospitality venues and strata properties. Give us a call or come in to discuss your project and we'll provide a quote.

Visiting the Showroom

Do I need an appointment to visit the showroom?

No. Walk in any time during opening hours. If you want to chat with someone specific or have a bigger project to discuss, give us a call ahead and we'll make sure the right person is available.

Can I take carpet samples home to try before I buy?

Absolutely! We highly recommend it. We'll take a small deposit that can be refunded on return, or put towards the job.

Do you sell rugs in-store?

Yes, we have a wide range of rugs in-store across various sizes, styles and materials. Pop in to browse. No appointment needed.
