Carpet Remnants Explained: How to Save Money on Flooring
If you’re looking for affordable carpet, remnants can be a brilliant place to start.
A carpet remnant is usually a smaller piece left from a larger roll. It might be the end of a roll, a leftover section, or a piece that is too small for a full house but perfect for one room.
Because remnants are limited pieces, they can often be offered at a very reasonable price.
What can carpet remnants be used for?
Remnants are ideal for smaller spaces where you don’t need a full roll of carpet.
They can work well for:
- Box rooms
- Spare bedrooms
- Small offices
- Stairs
- Landings
- Small lounges
- Children’s rooms
- Rental properties
They can also be useful if you need to freshen up one room without spending too much.
Are remnants lower quality?
Not necessarily.
A remnant can be from a good quality carpet roll. The reason it’s cheaper is usually because it’s a smaller leftover piece, not because there’s something wrong with it.
That’s why remnants can be a smart option if the size works for your room.
Why stock changes often
Remnant stock changes regularly.
Once a piece is sold, it’s gone. You might visit one week and see something perfect, then come back later and find it has already been taken.
If you’re looking for a bargain, it’s worth visiting the shop and seeing what’s available in person.
Measure before you visit
If you’re hoping to buy a remnant, it helps to have rough room measurements before you come in.
Measure the length and width of the room, and make a note of any awkward shapes, alcoves or doorways.
If you’re not confident measuring, book a free measure instead. That way, we can check properly before you order.
Can remnants be fitted?
Yes, remnants can usually be fitted just like other carpet, as long as the piece is suitable for the room.
If fitting is booked through us, there is no delivery charge and no cutting charge.
