We specialise in the supply and fitting of domestic and commercial flooring. Our team of fitters are experienced in fitting carpets, carpet tiles, and safety and decorative vinyls, together with the necessary floor preparation essential for the highest quality installation.

As you would expect from Gibsons, our professional approach has earned us a reputation for providing a top quality and reliable service with an emphasis on excellence in customer care.

We have the experience to fit flooring or carry out planned maintenance in almost any type of home or business.

Our extensive experience in the provision of adaptations for disabled people has helped us develop a particular expertise in the installation of vinyl safety flooring in wet areas such as bathrooms and kitchens in the domestic, education and healthcare sectors, where customers can be assured that all health and safety requirements, manufacturer’s guidelines and good industry practices are in place.

Floor preparation

Our extensive knowledge of flooring materials and installations enables us to offer the best advice on floor coverings and floor preparation for every situation.

A successful installation is determined not just by the specification and quality of the floor covering but the actual workmanship involved, including the preparation of the sub-floor.

We provide a full range of floor preparation services including damp proof membranes, ply wood overlay and self-levelling screeds.

Good quality underlays are essential for all types of floor coverings. We can provide and lay products suitable for most applications, such as underfloor heating, acoustic solutions to soundproof floors and carpeting.

With certain installations, such as vinyl flooring in wet areas, it is important to ensure that the sub-floor is in good repair and electric and plumbing services are satisfactory. Once installed, it may be next to impossible to access these services without destroying the floor covering. We can carry out any necessary remedial work prior to fitting floor coverings.

Home Flooring

Choosing the right floor covering for your home is a matter of personal choice. Whilst some choose to carpet throughout the house many are nowadays opting for alternatives in one or more rooms. Popular choice in carpet is 40/50 oz twist whilst designer vinyls are increasingly requested.

We offer a wide range of carpets, underlay, vinyl and specialist floor coverings (for example Karndean and Amtico) for the home.

Designer Vinyl Flooring

Designer vinyl flooring is becoming increasingly popular with clients looking for unique and eye catching products. The term ‘designer flooring’ is used to describe products that are not off the shelf but are specifically designed and installed to provide a one-off look to suit an individual’s needs.

We carry a large range of designer floors from Amptico, Karndean, Polyflor and Marley with a full range of border and feature strips. Our bespoke service offers designs tailored to give you that individual and unique look with a wow factor.

All these products are made up of individual components in either plank, tile or sheet format and can be put together to create a distinctive style. Borders or motifs can be incorporated to make an instant and stunning impact.

Vinyl/linoleum flooring has made a real comeback in recent years and is now the first choice for many areas that have high foot traffic or require a waterproof floor. For those who want to combine these hardwearing and easy to clean features, these flooring products can copy real finishes in wood, wood block, stone, marble, ceramic, granite slate and many others to give an astounding range of finishes, designs and colours.


Safety Flooring

We specialise in the supply and installation of all types of high quality safety flooring.

Safety floor coverings need to be non-slip, hard wearing, attractive in design and in many cases waterproof and stain resistant.

We are able to supply and fit the UK’s leading brands of safety flooring including Altro, Polyflor, Tarkett and Forbo to retail and commercial premises, schools, hospitals and many other applications where safety underfoot is of paramount importance.

Typical applications include: kitchens, toilets, bathrooms, changing rooms, nurseries, industrial areas, retirement homes, medical areas, shops, bar areas and many more.

We are particularly adept in the fitting of safety flooring for people with disabilities in situations such as bathrooms, wet rooms, walk-in showers, ramps and kitchens. Popular choices are non-slip sheet vinyls such as Polyflor or Altro, which are available in a wide range of colours that are both stylish and safe.
