Choice Carpets

Choosing flooring for a home means thinking about more than the color of a sample: how each room is used, how it will be cleaned, and the feel the household wants all matter. Choice Carpets, a family-run business trading since 1979, brings flooring sales and installation together with curtains, blinds, shutters, and awnings in Kent. It serves customers from two stores, in Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells, and brings samples to people’s homes so they can decide in the space itself.

Flooring options include carpet, vinyl, laminate, solid wood, and engineered wood, along with contract safety flooring. Window furnishings include made-to-measure curtains, Venetian, Roman, roller, pleated, panel, and vertical blinds, as well as basswood shutters. The range also includes pelmets, tiebacks, swags and tails, tracks and poles, plus awnings and canopies.

The company’s “shop at home” service means customers do not have to imagine a finish from a photograph. A team member brings samples of carpet, curtains, blinds, and hard flooring in a van; the visit is free, and the quote carries no obligation. Sales staff also have fitting experience, so they can discuss materials and styles in light of how a home is used.

Choice Carpets employs its own fitters and describes installation as part of the service rather than a separate step. Its explanation of pricing includes measuring and planning, moving furniture, lifting and disposing of old carpet where applicable, trimming doors, and cleaning up afterward. The company says measurements and quotes are stored in a centralized system that its fitting teams can access, with the aim of shortening lead times and avoiding repeated questions for customers.

Window options range from practical light control to decorative finishes. Blinds can adjust light and privacy, while made-to-measure curtains allow customers to choose fabrics and proportions for each opening. In the flooring range, carpet provides a textile surface, while wood, vinyl, and laminate suit different maintenance needs and visual preferences. The store also lists safety flooring for commercial projects.

The two stores have separate contact details. The Maidstone branch is at 8 Palace Avenue; the Tunbridge Wells store is at 2 Nevill Street, in the town center. Both publish the same hours, Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and close on Sundays. The contact page assigns a phone number and email to each branch, which helps when arranging an in-home visit or asking about a project in a particular area.

The company’s local history, dating back to 1979, is part of how it presents the experience behind a purchase. Customers can review samples, get advice, arrange measurements, and coordinate installation with the company’s own staff. Quotes include tasks that may appear separately elsewhere, so comparing the full scope helps customers understand what is covered before they commit.

For a renovation completed in stages, Choice Carpets lets customers consider flooring and window furnishings together: a sample can be viewed alongside the real light and furniture, and installation can be planned with the same company. Its coverage extends across Maidstone, Tunbridge Wells, and other parts of Kent. The result is a home-furnishings retailer with mobile sampling, two locations, and a range spanning carpet, curtains, blinds, and hard flooring.
