Nan's Space – Prebbleton
The Brief
This homeowner in Prebbleton was on a mission to spruce up a little glass conservatory at Nan’s. It was meant to be a cosy spot for relaxing, reading, and enjoying a cuppa, but the reality wasn’t quite so charming. The old carpet was musty and worn out, and every time it rained, the room felt damp and uncomfortable. It just didn’t have that warm, inviting vibe they were after.
They needed a flooring solution that could handle temperature changes, resist moisture, and be easy to clean without losing the cosy, homely feel they wanted for Nan’s special spot. That’s when they called us in to see what we could do.

The ProGroup Solution
We knew straight away that ordinary carpet wouldn’t cut it in a conservatory that deals with dampness and changing temperatures. It needed to be tough enough to handle a bit of moisture but still feel warm and comfy underfoot. Our answer? Heavy-duty garage carpet. Here’s how we pulled it off:
Preparing the Space:
We started by removing the old carpet and underlay, making sure the floor underneath was dry and squeaky clean. This step is super important to stop any lingering dampness from mould or musty smells developing later on.
Installing the Garage Carpet:
We used heavy-duty garage carpets specifically designed for spaces that face moisture and temperature fluctuations. It’s synthetic and non-rotting, so even if the conservatory gets a bit damp in the winter, there’s no risk of mould, mustiness, or general degradation.
We custom-cut the carpet to fit the room perfectly, ensuring a snug fit against the walls. The carpet lay flat and stayed put with the help of heavy-duty glue.
Finishing Touches and Clean-Up:
We made sure the edges were perfectly aligned and that there were no gaps or trip hazards. Once the flooring looked up to our standards, we gave the room a final vacuum and left it looking spotless and cosy, ready for Nan to enjoy on those lush, sunny days.
The Finished Conservatory
Nan’s conservatory went from cold and musty to warm, inviting, and downright cosy. The new garage carpet looked fantastic and completely changed the feel of the room. It was comfortable underfoot and added a touch of warmth that the old space was seriously lacking.
Even better, it’s incredibly low-maintenance. Unlike traditional carpets, which can get smelly and stained, this garage carpet is water-resistant and easy to clean. A quick vacuum or a wipe-down is all it takes to keep it looking fresh. Plus, it doesn’t hold onto odours, so no more post-rain musk after a bit of drizzle!
The homeowner was over the moon with the transformation. They loved how it made the room feel more like an extension of the home rather than just an awkward extra space. It became the perfect spot for Nan to relax, read, and enjoy her cuppa, just as she had always imagined.
