Our story

Specialist experience in every type of floor covering

P. Layden & Son (trading as Layden Contracts) was founded in 1964 as a family business specialising in the supply and installation of floor coverings. Six decades on, we are a private limited company working throughout Scotland and the UK.

Our experience covers a wide range of floor coverings and property types: schools and colleges, hospitals and hospices, airports, offices, shops, hotels, restaurants and housing.

We are based in Newton Mearns, on the South Side of Glasgow, at our 7,500 sq ft purpose-built facility at North Walton Farm.
