A NEW flooring company which specialises in commercial contracts will be opening a shop in the Old Village, Huntington, next month.

Appletree Flooring, which was formed last November by Jason Lamb and Daniel Seamman, has already won contracts with Starbucks, Pizza Express, Mothercare and PC World.

The shop, which is expected to open in Derwent Walk in mid-May, will allow them to extend their reach to private homes.

Jason said: “Because we are a small company without huge overheads we are competitively priced and anyone entering the shop will deal directly with practical fitters who will offer a personal service. rather than go-getting salesmen.”
