Questions

Yes. Our local fitters cover Bishop Auckland and the surrounding area, including Shildon, West Auckland, Coundon and Toft Hill. Or take it supply only and fit it yourself.

Do you cover farmhouses and older homes?

Yes. Uneven floors, big rooms, stone flags and stairs that aren’t quite square are all part of the job round here. Tell us what you’re working with and we’ll help you pick something that suits it and lasts.

Can I take samples home?

Yes. It’s the best way to choose, because the light in your room changes everything.
