Can someone give me a really simple guide to laying a carpet?
The carpet is felt backed. Not expensive - it cost me £271 for two rooms which I thought was reasonable.
The one room is oblong and doesn't seem to have any recesses except for a couple of inches into each window. (12x20ft) The other room is 12 x 10.5 ins and I have bought 12x13.1 ft to make sure I have enough because there is a step from the room to the sitting room ( which is at right angles to it).
Now do I attack the step?
Other half has refused to help. I needed a carpet , old is thread bear and even ripped in places. Its got an underlay and gripper rods all round in both rooms. I had planned on leaving old underlay down and putting carpet on top just for ease and cost cutting.
Any help would be gratefully received.
