We do have our own team of salespeople who can take away the pressure of measuring. However, if you would like a quote for comparison we can offer this. We have products designed for this form our good, better, best selection. We can send you samples in the post as required. All you have to do is measure.
For a standard room these are the basic steeps you will need to do.
- Measure the longest points of the room. Remember the carpet will come in one piece. So it must fit. A carpet is generally 4m wide (sometimes slightly less). The length can be as long as you wish (within reason).
- If measuring for a vinyl the widths are 2m, 3m or 4m wide.
The room a bay window, making the room slightly odd in shape – this usually doesn’t affect how you measure the room, as you measure the longest and widest parts (3.8m and 4.4m). Once you know these measurements, you can then pick a carpet size that will fit. In this example, the 3.8m would become 4 metres the second size – 4.4m – would become 4.5 metres. In this example, the final carpet size required would be 4m x 4.5m. Don’t worry if this looks confusing. The customer service team will help you out.
Stairs & Landings.
We would suggest that you let one of our experienced sales professional carry out this process for you. As it can be rather complicated for anyone who is not experienced.
However, if you do wish to try.
Stairs.
As a rule 2m x 4m piece of carpet would cover the majority of stairs. The carpet fitter will use his experience and knowledge to cut and fit the stairs.
Landing.
Measuring a landing is the same as measuring a basic room. Remember to add on a little extra to cover the first step.
Once you have the measurements give them to the customer service team and they will do the rest.
