The Carpet Guy 13 - Cavalier Carpets

The Carpet Guy returns to talk about Cavalier Carpets and takes us through a few of their ranges. The first of which is the Pennine Heathers range of carpets which has a delicate finish and is perfect for every room of the house. And the Country Classics Collection which is heavily berbered (flecked) to give a country cottage rustic feel. The Carpet Guy concludes with Cavalier's Strata range which is a collection of striped carpets.


The Carpet Guy 12 - Namgrass (Artificial Grass)

The Carpet Guy 8 - Archway Carpets Turn 35!

This month The Carpet Guy takes a break from sharing tips and trends from the world of flooring to focus on celebrating Archway Carpets' 35 years in business. Darrell's father Graham started the business in Woodbridge, Suffolk with his wife, Barbara, in 1984. After nearly 25 years in business, Barbara fell seriously ill. At the time she asked Darrell to join the family business, and Darrell said he would. His mum sadly passed away three weeks later knowing that he would be there to support his dad and the business.

Archway Carpets is the business it is today because of Graham, Darrell, and Barbara. What also makes Archway Carpets a success is, of course, our customers. We want to thank every one of you! We literally could not have done it without you. There are also special thanks to family and friends who have supported Darrell and Graham over the years. I'm sure we'll think of a reason to have another party soon!

In a first for the Archway Carpets production team, we've left the shop in Woodbridge for our first filming on location. Where did we go? The Carpet Guy's house. Darrell recently had work completed on a loft conversion and got his trusted carpet fitter, Bill, to come and the carpet. In this episode, Darrell takes us through his choice of flooring. SPOILER ALERT! Brockway Carpets & Spring Bond underlay.


The Carpet Guy 3 - Monochrome Carpets

In this month's video, Archway Carpets owner, Darrell Smith aka The Carpet Guy, takes us through a range of monochrome carpets. For those who don't know monochrome is a design that uses one colour. For example, black or white is presented in different shades or as a single colour. Darrell presents a number of designs ranging from the very bold to more subdued patterns and suggests where they might work well around the home.


The Carpet Guy 2 - Heavily Patterned & Tartan Carpets
