Buyer’s Guide

Value for money "Thats Our Promise!"

United Carpets are committed to offering you the best choice for the best value every time, so we "promise you" we'll always stock a greater choice of carpets at cheaper prices than any other retailer.

Because of our large volume buying power, all our carpets are priced to offer the customer, the best deal in the UK, That's a promise!

Our price promise means that if within 28 days of purchasing your carpet you find the same carpet on sale and in stock at another carpet retailer at a lower price, we will refund the difference.

How much carpet do I need?

In order to work out how much carpet or vinyl you will need you must first measure your room. To do this, simply measure the room across its longest and widest part. Make sure you measure into any alcoves or window bays; remember it's better to have too much than too little! If your carpet or vinyl is running into a doorway, measure to where the carpet or vinyl will finish underneath the door. You should then add 10 centimetres (4 inches) onto each measurement. This will allow for cutting, trimming and will help ensure a first class fit.

 

Use our simple room calculator below to see how much carpet you'll need. Simply enter the width and length of your room and select calculate

You should also note that our carpets come in a standard 400cm width. This means that if both your measurements are under 400cm the bigger of the two will be rounded up to 400cm. If one of your measurements is already bigger than 400cm then the smaller measurement will be rounded up to 400cm. In the event that both your measurements are larger than 400cm we do have Extra Wide ranges for you to choice from.
