Twist pile carpets combine durability with a classic, versatile look that suits almost any interior. At TB Elliott Flooring, our fitter-led service makes it simple: we visit, advise, supply, and install – so you get a beautifully fitted carpet with zero hassle.
We measure up, check your subfloor, talk through fibre choices (wool vs. polypropylene), underlays and stair suitability. No showroom sales chat – just practical recommendations that work in real homes.

Great carpets need stable foundations. We can uplift and dispose of old flooring, smooth or repair subfloors, fit quality underlay for comfort and insulation, and install appropriate door bars and grippers for a crisp finish.
Most of our installers are personally trained by Trevor Elliott, DBS-checked and NVQ Level 2 qualified. Expect punctuality, careful cutting on stairs and doorways, and tight, ripple-free stretching for a long-lasting fit.
We’ll explain simple care routines: regular vacuuming, prompt stain treatment, and the right cleaning solutions for your fibre choice. You’ll know exactly how to keep your twist pile carpet looking good for years.

Thinking about twist pile carpets? Here are answers to the questions we’re asked most often.
Twist pile uses tightly twisted cut yarns that spring back well and disguise footprints, making it more forgiving in busy spaces than saxony (plusher, shows shading) and softer underfoot than many loop piles.
Wool (or wool-rich blends) feels natural, offers great resilience and ages beautifully. Polypropylene is highly stain-resistant, great value and often bleach-cleanable (following the manufacturer’s guidance). We’ll recommend the best fit for each room.
Yes – it’s one of the best choices for high-traffic areas because the twisted fibres resist flattening and hide wear. We’ll specify the correct weight and density so your stairs stay smart for longer.
We strongly recommend it. Fresh underlay improves comfort, reduces noise and helps your carpet last longer. We’ll advise on the right specification (tog rating and density) for your subfloor and any underfloor heating.
Vacuum regularly (more often in high-traffic areas), treat spills quickly, and book a periodic professional clean according to the fibre type. Use entrance mats and felt pads under furniture to minimise wear.
