Carpet and flooring in the Melbourne CBD
The Melbourne CBD, centred on the Hoddle Grid between Flinders Street and La Trobe Street, is home to offices, hotels, shops and thousands of apartments. It’s about 20 km by road from our Huntingdale showroom.
Floors in the city have to work around tenants, guests and building managers.
Hotels, serviced apartments and offices
- Hotels and serviced apartments: floors are replaced around bookings, often a few rooms or a floor at a time. We’ve supplied and installed floors for the Pegasus Apart’Hotel on A’Beckett Street: see the project photos.
- Offices: commercial carpet tiles ($35–$60/m² supply, $15/m² installed), laid after hours or at weekends so work carries on.
- Apartments: carpet or hybrid, planned around lift bookings and building rules. Apartment and body corporate jobs in homes add 10%.
- Access: loading docks, parking and lift bookings are worked out before the job starts.

Frequently asked questions
Can you work at night in a hotel or office?
Yes. For hotels, offices and shops we can install after hours or at weekends, and plan the work around guests and staff.
What carpet suits a hotel room?
Something hard-wearing and easy to spot-clean, such as solution-dyed nylon broadloom or carpet tiles. Our hotel carpet page has more.
Can you replace the carpet in one apartment?
Yes. A single apartment is quoted like any home, with the 10% apartment and body corporate charge on the installed price.
