Mayfield Milestones

Mayfield Milestones 1981 - 2021

18th May 2021 marks a whole 40 years since the formation of Mayfield Floors.

To celebrate such an impressive achievement, we've taken a trip down memory lane by digging out the archives and looking back at the history of the business. Scroll through below to see some of our best and biggest milestones throughout the past 40 years.

What we now know as Mayfield Floors, was first known as Bluenuit Ltd / Mayfield Carpet Fitters and was established by Eric Francis (pictured right) on 18th May 1981.

Back then, the business installed all types of domestic carpets in the local Stockport area.

In 1982, the business moved to its first business premises at 7 Hopes Carr, Stockport and the first ever staff members were employed.

In 1990, the business was awarded its first contract for NatWest Bank.

In 1994, Mayfield Carpets became an approved contractor to deliver and install flooring to all 'Birthdays Card Shops'; the leading British high street greeting cards retailer.

We Turn Forty!

The biggest highlights over the years for Mayfield Floors has been seeing the growth of the company, not only in terms of turnover but in all aspects. To have a successful family business means a lot to me personally, and it's important for me to keep it going for years to come. We hold dear our company values which keep us in good stead, in terms of our employees, our clients and our suppliers and we hope to continue to go from strength to strength as a business - Anthony Francis
