The time required depends on the type of flooring and how it was originally fitted:
Carpets – Quick to remove, often less than 10 minutes per room.
Vinyl – If only fixed at the edges, it can usually be lifted in minutes.
Laminate & Luxury Vinyl (LVT) – Removed plank by plank, so it takes longer and may vary depending on the size of the room, furniture, or how strongly the floor was glued down.
Our fitters will always let you know what to expect and ensure the process is carried out efficiently on installation day.
The cost of uplift & removal depends on the size of the area and the type of flooring being taken up. Don’t worry — we’ll provide you with a clear, upfront quote before any work begins. Once agreed, you can pay the fitter directly on the day of installation, giving you complete peace of mind that everything is taken care of.
The best way is to try them out. We encourage you to visit our Kingston showroom to lie on our different mattresses to see what level of firmness and comfort suits you best.

Carpet is overwhelmingly the most popular and practical choice for stairs due to its safety (slip-resistance), comfort, and noise-reducing properties. We recommend a durable twist or loop pile carpet for this high-traffic area.
We are proud to have a dedicated, in-house team of experienced fitters. We never use external subcontractors. This means we can guarantee a consistently high standard of workmanship and complete peace of mind for you. The person who arrives at your door is a trusted member of the Kingston Carpets and Beds team.
We ask that you remove all small, delicate, and valuable items from the room. We can assist with moving larger items of furniture, but this is a chargeable service that must be arranged in advance. Please discuss this with us when you place your order so we can plan accordingly.
Usually yes. LVT shows imperfections, so we prep with ply (timber) or smoothing compound (concrete) for a flawless result.
