Remnants of the Week: Oshun in Alabaster

This week’s bargains are a bit special.

Oshun is an incredibly soft, luxurious and hard-wearing carpet, made using ECONYL® regenerated nylon produced from recycled waste such as old carpets and abandoned fishing nets recovered from the sea.

So it doesn’t just feel good underfoot, it helps protect marine life too. 🐢

We currently have:

* 2 x 3.20m × 4m - £199 each
Normally £485 each

* 2.50m × 4m - £149
Normally £379

* 2.50m × 5m - £149
Normally £411.86 (Sold as seen due to slight soiling)

All in the versatile Alabaster colour and suitable for heavy domestic use.

These are genuine premium carpet remnants at seriously reduced prices, with savings of up to £286.

Available from our Torquay showroom while stocks last. Once they’re gone, they’re gone. 🌊♻️

We’ve given two of our newest recruits annual leave tonight… apparently they’ve got a semi-final against Argentina 🇦🇷

Harry was just getting the hang of the carpet kicker, and Jude had finally been trusted with the spray adhesive. Typical.

Come on England! Bring it home! ⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

It’s the finishing touches that make all the difference.

A carpet doesn’t have to end at the edge.

With our bespoke taping and binding service, we can transform almost any carpet into a stunning stair runner, hall runner or made-to-measure rug.

✔ Choose from a wide range of tape colours
✔ Add a contrasting stripe for a truly bespoke look
✔ Turn leftover carpet into a matching rug instead of throwing it away

It’s those little details that take a floor from standard to something special.

📍 Visit our Torquay showroom to explore the options.

When we say we’ve got a LOT of remnants… we mean it 😅

The team have been busy unloading a fresh delivery of them ready to be cut down into 50+ room-size remnants.

With the cost of living still hitting hard, we know not everyone wants, or can afford to spend a fortune on flooring right now. So we’ve decided to go bigger than ever on quality bargain remnants to help people freshen up their homes for less.

Expect:
✔ Big savings
✔ Room-size pieces
✔ Quality carpets at clearance-style prices
✔ Perfect for bedrooms, rentals, offices, lounges and more

Once these are cut and labelled, they’ll be out on the shop floor ready to go… and at prices that’ll be very hard to beat 👀

If you’re after a bargain, now’s the time to keep an eye on the page or pop into the showroom before the best ones disappear.
