Yes, you can get new flooring without a credit check. At My Dream Flooring, we don’t run credit checks on any plan, carpet, laminate or vinyl. Instead, we have a straightforward conversation about what you can afford, so a poor credit history, or no credit history at all, doesn’t shut the door on you the way it would with a store card or a bank loan.
Why do most flooring companies run credit checks?
Most pay weekly and pay monthly flooring plans are actually financed through an external credit agency, a separate lender who checks your credit file before approving anything. That’s standard practice across the industry, and it’s why so many people get turned away or offered a much smaller amount than they need.
What happens instead of a credit check with My Dream Flooring?
Your rep asks what you can genuinely afford each week or month, based on your circumstances, not a credit score. Your plan is handled entirely in-house, with no external credit agency involved at any stage, so there’s no automated computer decision working against you.
Does bad credit affect my chances of getting new flooring?
No. Because we don’t run credit checks, a poor credit score or past rejections elsewhere won’t stop you. What matters is whether the weekly or monthly payments are genuinely affordable, which we work out together at your home appointment.
Will applying affect my credit score?
No. Since we don’t use external credit checks, there’s no credit search recorded against you in the way a traditional loan or credit card application would show.
How much can I get without a credit check?
Credit amounts are agreed individually at your appointment, up to £1,500, interest free. That’s enough for more than just one room if you need it. Every order also comes with 10mm luxury underlay as standard, free grippers and door bars, and the full price, including fitting, told to you upfront before you commit to anything.
We cover England and Scotland, specifically the North East, Yorkshire & Humber, Midlands & Cheshire, North West and Scotland. If you’re claiming benefits, that doesn’t affect your eligibility either, see our guide on getting new carpets while on benefits for grants and support worth checking first.
