My brain is becoming tired and i can't think without my head herting :lol:

I've no idea! I would prob think around £40 tho. I need to measure it properly and then i can work it out. I'll do that tomorrow and have a think because i think it will be cheaper to piece the carpet together at the beginning of the hall where it is hardly walked on.

If your coming from Cheshire then that's around 25 miles i think so bearing in mind the cost of petrol too.

no how much do they want to fit it?

I went to a shop and they said £2.30 a sq meter. The carpet i was looking at was on £4 a sq meter so...

Just had a quick look and the hall is about 7 metres long and 2 metres wide

no probs
how much do fitters charge a hour?

I think i'll have a look around on Monday so i'll let you know what i have got then. I'll U2U on Monday. Thanks mate :thumbs:

i may come and have a look bud i can do it, but need to see it, ill ask my dad he cant do it now but he knows exaclty how 2
ive fitted carpets myself before up stairs etc
but always under guidence so ill ask him tomorow :thumbs:

The floor it's going on is concrete which has those crappy tiles on. It's a dead easy job, i'll even do the underlay myself cause i can't really fuck that up. I would like the fitter to put the gripper things down though as my drill is fucked with my dodgy DIY skills :lol:

The carpet will be plain with just the odd pattern in -- i.e the one i fancy has the odd leaf in it.

If someone wants the job they can do it whenever they have chance, i'm not really in a hurry.

erm how big? and any fancy bits like alcove's
is it a wooden floor?


and is it a fancy expensive carpet?

I'll check back later to see if anyone wants the job on here. If no U2Us or reps i'll get someone out of a local paper.

Cheers guys

The fitters in the shops cost to much. All my mates still live at home or in student places so all they need to know is the price of booze and petrol :lol:

Can get the carpet in the back of my car, it's only a small area i'm covering.

Not sure where i'm getting the carpet from yet. There are loads of place around here with sales on. Not sure whether to get it tomorrow or on Monday, see how i feel

just get the company who fit the stuff to lay it,

they contract the work out...

Hmmmm ... yellow pages and ask ur mates, their bound to know of someone who could do it for you .......

Where u getting this carpet from? The shop might have fitters that will deliver it and fit it for a good price.

Will cost a bit to much from a shop, infact as much as the carpet a sq metre. Will phone a few ppl in my local paper if no-one on here wants the job.

Ally, as i said, i don't wanna fuck the carpet up by doing it myself. Gonna be paying around £100 for the carpet and that underley stuff so...

Do it urself.....

Yellow pages????

It's a flat BTW, no stairs to fit carpet to etc!

I want to get a carpet this weekend for my hall because i've never got around to it :lol: Anyway, i need someone to fit it for me once i've got it and wondered if anyone can do this. I don't wanna fuck the carpet up myself as money is becoming tight at the minute due to it being MOT, TAX and insurance time at the end of June.

Obviously i am prepared to pay someone for doing this and should only take them 20 minutes.
