“Nylon carpets are engineered for resilience - and we fit them with equal precision. At TB Elliott Flooring, we take advantage of nylon’s elasticity and strength, using tight tensioning and clean, accurate trimming for a seamless, professional finish. Every installation is designed to maximise bounce-back, wear resistance and long-term performance. When you want a carpet that’s as tough as it is beautiful, we make it happen.”
Nylon (polyamide) carpets are renowned for combining toughness with comfort. At TB Elliott Flooring, our fitter-led service keeps things simple: we visit, advise, measure, supply and install, so your new carpet performs beautifully from day one.
We start with an in-home survey to measure accurately, assess subfloors and discuss how each room is used. You’ll get practical guidance on nylon vs. other fibres, pile type (twist, saxony, loop), and the right underlay – no sales patter, just what works in real homes.
We match pile height, density and backing to the space: denser twists for stairs and landings, softer saxony for bedrooms, and resilient loops for family areas. We bring curated samples so you can see colours and textures in your own lighting.
Long-lasting carpets start beneath the surface. We can uplift and responsibly dispose of old flooring, repair or smooth subfloors, and fit premium underlay to improve comfort, insulation and lifespan – finishing with the right grippers and door bars.
Most of our installers are personally trained by Trevor Elliott, DBS-checked and NVQ Level 2 qualified. Expect tight, ripple-free stretching, sharp stair turns, neat thresholds and daily tidy-downs with on-tool dust extraction.
Nylon is simple to live with. We’ll explain the right vacuum settings, stain treatment guidance, and when to book a professional clean. You’ll have clear routines to keep colour bright and the pile resilient for years.
Nothing beats hearing it from homeowners like you. Read our latest 5-star reviews for real stories about tidy workmanship, clear communication, and floors that still look great years later. Many customers are returning clients – or the next generation – who trust us to deliver the same high standard every time.
Considering nylon carpets? Here are answers to the questions we’re asked most often.
Nylon offers superior resilience and recovery from crushing versus polypropylene, making it excellent for stairs and high-traffic spaces. Compared with wool, nylon is typically more stain- and fade-resistant and often better value, while wool provides natural luxury and insulation.
Nylon fibres are highly stain-resistant and many ranges include additional stain protection. Treat spills promptly and follow our care guidance for best results.
Yes – it’s one of the best choices. With the right density and backing, nylon maintains its pile height and appearance in the busiest areas. We’ll specify and fit for tight, safe stair detailing.
Absolutely. Modern nylon yarns can be exceptionally soft, especially in saxony constructions. We’ll help you balance softness with the resilience you need.
We strongly recommend it. Quality underlay improves comfort, reduces wear, enhances insulation and helps the pile recover after compression. We’ll match density and tog rating to your subfloor and any underfloor heating.
