Living room carpet — Pathhead
The living room is where a carpet earns its keep: sofa moves, kids on the floor, guests, hoover twice a week. In Pathhead we mostly recommend 80/20 wool twist for a spec that still looks the same after five winters — but we'll bring saxony and polyamide samples too so you can see everything in your own light.
Sitting near Path Brae, Pathhead living room projects tend to be family-scale, medium-traffic, budget-aware.

Why this room, this way, in Pathhead
Living room spec in Pathhead isn't the same brief as in a rental turnover flat or a busy retail unit — this page is about the residential living room we fit week-in, week-out in KY1. The Victorian sandstone housing here means restoring pine boards in upper flats is usually the first thing we flag on the survey; stair carpet on narrow tenement winders.
Our recommendation for most Pathhead living room projects: 80/20 wool twist. It's the spec that hits the price/lifespan sweet-spot for this room and this housing type — but we bring samples of all three options on the survey so you can compare in your own light.
