Living room carpet — Pittencrieff
The living room is where a carpet earns its keep: sofa moves, kids on the floor, guests, hoover twice a week. In Pittencrieff 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.
Most living room jobs in KY12 we quote sit in the period townhouse owners bracket — spec picked to suit that use.
A typical Pittencrieff living room (roughly 16–22m²) is £320–£620 fitted including 10mm PU underlay.
Best-suited: 80/20 wool twist · saxony deep pile · polyamide twist
- 80/20 wool twist for warmth that keeps its look
- Saxony deep pile for a plush finish
- Heavy-domestic polyamide for budget-conscious fits

Why this room, this way, in Pittencrieff
Living room spec in Pittencrieff 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 KY12. The Victorian sandstone housing here means restoring original parquet in main rooms is usually the first thing we flag on the survey; narrow stair gripper for Victorian risers.
Our recommendation for most Pittencrieff 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.
