Customers’ frequently asked questions

And the answers from Avonvale Carpets

A. Important things to consider when choosing your new flooring include: how it’ll complement existing and perhaps future décor; the amount of wear and tear it’ll be subject to; how long you want it to last; how much you want to spend in total on flooring, underlay and fitting. We can help you choose.

A. Yes, we always recommend that you borrow samples so that you can see carpets in the environment you’re planning to have them fitted, since natural and artificial lighting can have an impact on appearance. Limit yourself to half a dozen samples, split them up and view them individually in different areas of the room.

A. Yes, we offer a free, no obligation measuring service that you can book for a time and day that’s convenient to you. We will accurately measure your rooms to ensure just the right amount of flooring is ordered, thereby minimising waste and assuring the best price for you.

A. Yes.You should always buy new underlay with a new carpet. To meet performance guarantees carpet manufacturers actually expect new underlay to be fitted. And there are just so many great benefits to be gained from modern underlay, read all about them on Avonvale Carpet’s Underlay page.

A. Since Avonvale Carpets only works with trusted, locally-based, professionally trained fitters, the length of time really depends on the time of year. At busier times like Christmas for example, the waiting time will be longer. As a general rule, however, there is typically 2-4 weeks between ordering and fitting.

A. Yes, we require a 50% deposit in advance of ordering your carpet. The outstanding 50% is to be payable within 14 days of final fitting.

A. Yes, this can be arranged for an additional cost.
