Visited Durham Indoor Market numerous times. Cafe Cenno super, Durham City Watches always first class, card stall well stocked. Loved Andersons Shoes, sadly gone. First time we have shopped at Bound 2 Fit Floor Coverings. Gillian knows her products inside out. Happy to advise even brought carpet sample books to our home. First class service. Finally, because of the pandemic and other house improvements, our hall staircase and landing were refitted with Berber carpet this week. Wow. Freddie's fitting is superb, he is a true professional and works so hard. He even sorted a creaking floor board for us!!! Gillian was his able assistant, gofor, forever tidying the bits of fluff. A first class team. Thank you Bound 2 Fit we will certainly shop with you again and share our experience with family and friends. We wish you continued success.
