Karpet Mills, the North-East’s leading quality carpet retailer, have been selected as the flooring specialist by one of the region’s fastest-growing businesses, Hive (HR), for the major refurbishment of their new 4,400 sqft office space, located on Market Street, Newcastle.
Hive is an award-winning employee feedback platform and People Science service, partnering with organisations such as Northumbria Police, Travelodge and River Island. The Hive team moved to their new site on Market Street as part of £1.2m investment, to help accommodate team expansion and future plans. “We are delighted with the new office space renovations, including the bespoke flooring project completed by Karpet Mills” said Hive founder and CEO, John Ryder. He added “The guys at Karpet Mills did a great job with minimal disruption and we are happy with the end result. We are excited about the new premises and hope that it can take Hive to the next level” Karpet Mills Director Joel Dickinson, adds “We are delighted to have been entrusted with a prestigious, large-scale project such as this. This project further broadens our scope of commercial work across the North-East, covering everything from office spaces to hotels and schools to churches”
Joel explains that the secret to success is keeping things simple by offering the best choice, the best quality and the best prices. With the huge stock holding capacity across six flooring superstores, Karpet Mills are able to buy in bulk and save money for their customers, both residential and commercial “Too often there are too many people taking a cut between the factories making the carpets and the end user buying them – this means higher prices for the consumer. We cut all of those people out to give our customers genuine wholesale prices. Whether it’s top quality woven Axminsters for a living room or hard-wearing, stain-free carpet tiles for busy city centre office space, we simply cannot be beaten”.
Karpet Mills combines the experience gleaned from over a 140 years trading with the modern day expectations of quality and service to provide the full package for every customer. All branches (Kingston Park, Gateshead, Hetton-Le-Hole, Hexham and now Benton) are open for trade 7 days a week.

Karpet Mills, which currently operates five stores and employs 40 people across the region, have opened their brand-new head office facility, complete with multiple offices, boardroom and internal storage space.
The company has invested over £600,000 in the new, purpose-built office space, located in the busy Bridge End Industrial Estate in Hexham, Northumberland and will be home to several Karpet Mills departments, including Accounting & Finance, Marketing & Advertising. It will also act as a hub for Karpet Mills commercial, contract and business development.

Our flagship new building gives us a platform to build upon our long-standing reputation as the North East leading flooring supplier.”
The completion of the new premises marks a successful end to what has been a landmark year for Karpet Mills, as the 6th generation family run business opened a brand new flagship store in Hexham, Northumberland and also heavily invested in the extensive refurbishment of their branch in Hetton-le-Hole.

We cut all of those people out to give our customers genuine wholesale prices. Whether it’s top quality woven Axminsters or simple stainfree twists we simply cannot be beaten. Our prices are the most competitive around and now with these new finance options available, alongside our professional fitting and complete aftercare guarantee, we make buying a carpet a stress-free, reliable and easy process.”
