[?] Flotex - suppliers in the SE London area (and fitting of it).

[David Chapman]

We're considering using Flotex Classic floor covering in our conservatory and would like to know if anyone in this NG can recommend a supplier offering it for a good price in the S.E. London/Kent area.

I called into Carpetright who don't stock it but can get it to order, at a price of £24.99 per square metre. Is this a good price, or can I get a better deal somewhere else?

I'm going to need to cover a square of (just under) 4metres by 4 metres - is laying it a straightforward job that I can do myself, or is it something that needs to be laid by a 'professional'?

Many thanks in anticipation,

- Dave.

Just typing flotex classic into google takes you to the manufacturers website, who list these five stockists in London:

Brocklehurst

6 Englands Lane NW3 4TG London Phone: [phone]

CFC Interiors

75a Clooney Road BT47 3PA Londonderry Phone: [phone]

Coraff Carpets

51 Market Place NW11 6JT London Phone: [phone]

Supafloors

293 Mitcham Road SW19 9JQ London Phone: [phone]

West End Carpets

928 High Rd N12 9RW London Phone: [phone]

One or more of them may be able to supply it at a better price and may also be able to fit it, although the manufacturer offers a full range of equipment to DIY - it looks like it gets glued down:

That all depends on wether you trust yourself to accurately cut a carpet that costs £400. I can't imagine it's too difficult to lay once it's cut accurately.
