Most Popular Carpets for Student Accommodation
Foxglove Flooring knows what carpets work best in Newcastle student properties. We've fitted hundreds of student flats, halls, and new buildings across the city.
We pick carpets that last longer and cost landlords less money. Here's what we recommend for each type of student property.
Private Student Flat Carpets
What We Recommend
Heavy-duty polypropylene carpet in light colours This works great in student flats around Jesmond, Heaton, and Sandyford.
Why This Carpet Works Best
- Spills clean up easily - perfect for student life
- Keeps looking good even after lots of cleaning
- Lasts the whole academic year without wearing out
- Looks professional when new students come to view the flat
Best Colours
We suggest light gray, beige, or soft brown. These colours hide small stains well. They also look good with whatever furniture students bring.
The Right Underlay
We use thick foam underlay under these carpets. Most Newcastle student flats have old solid floors. This underlay makes the carpet feel comfortable to walk on. It also stops noise going through to the flat below.
This matters a lot in busy student areas like Sandyford. Houses are close together there. Good soundproofing keeps everyone happy.
University Hall Carpets
What We Recommend
Heavy-duty nylon carpet with extra strong backing These work perfectly in big university buildings with hundreds of students.
Why This Carpet Works Better
- Handles thousands of students walking on it every day
- Won't wear out in busy doorways and corridors
- Resists stains from spills and dirt
- Keeps looking good for years, not just months
- Perfect for busy places like Newcastle University halls
Why We Use Nylon
Nylon handles lots of foot traffic really well. It stays strong in doorways where students walk most. It also lasts in corridors where students hang out together.
Safety Rules
All our university carpets follow fire safety rules. They also cut down noise between rooms. This is really important when hundreds of students live in the same building.
Premium Student Development Carpets
What We Recommend
Premium wool-blend carpet with moisture-resistant backing. Perfect for high-end student developments and modern city centre accommodations.
Special Features
These carpets have backing that won't shrink or move. This is important in new buildings with heating and air conditioning. Temperature changes can ruin cheaper carpets.
Modern Look
High-quality wool blends give a luxurious feel underfoot. They match the premium finish that new city centre student buildings want.
Premium Colours
We use dark charcoal, warm brown, and textured gray. These colours look expensive and modern. They also hide wear and small stains well.
Extra Benefits:
- Stop dampness from bathrooms getting through
- Cut noise between different flats
- Easy to keep looking professional
- Support premium property positioning
These carpets help attract quality tenants while maintaining the upmarket appeal that makes these developments successful.
