I'm about to embark on decorating hall/stairs/landing which will include new fitted carpet. I would prefer wooden floors but that's never going to happen. There are no kids here (permanently, anyway) and just an elderly cat as a pet, so an average wearing carpet should do.
So any recommendations or opinions for Best or Best Avoided for the following please?
Material (think the choice is wool v. polypropylene)
Type (short/long tufts etc)
Backing (e.g. I prefer hessian to foam)
Underlay (someone said there is a different one for stairs from floors)
Suppliers (we have a small Indy up the road who's always seemed reasonable but are the sheds any good e.g. Carpet Right?)
I saw one around £25 sq yd which I quite liked but that came out at top end of budget given the area we're covering. I'd sooner not increase budget unless there are significant advantages.
All hints and tips appreciated. Thanks :-)
