I live in North Kent and have a Coachman Pastiche 540/4 2001 which has fixed fitted carpets.  I need to replace them either with similar carpet or with lightweight laminate and loose carpets.

Does anyone have knowledge of a company that supplies this service?

we put cushion flooring in our ace celebration which looked like laminate but was warmer and not had to fit but most carpets shops would fit it.

we /i did  our own on our 93 bailey.if you go to a carpet warehouse and pick out a roll end of about 16 foot long.lay it outside,cut out your old one lay it on top and cut with half inch all round,then refit with a sharp knife.they have carpet fitters to hand anyway if you do not want to do it yourself.the carpet cost from £10 to £60 depends on quality.[:o)]

We also fitted our own carpet/laminate, we did the lounge/seating area of the van in carpet and the kitchen area in laminate. As michael says, removing the old carpet and using it as a template for the new one is the easiest way to measure/cut to size.
You won't have to pay too much for the new carpet.... much less than £100, but getting it fitted too will double or even treble that!

I have a friend who is an independant carpet fitter and he replaced ours for us, he just asked what colour carpet we wanted and he found a roll end piece and fitted it in under an hour for us. I would recomend trying to find an independant carpet fitter near to you and see what they could do.

from experience if you did not do it this way it would be near impossible to fit a new carpet because of the room available inside the van.when the lady bought ours she remarked the carpet looks brand new.[:D]
