Measuring a Room

You will need to measure your rooms length and width at their widest points taking into account any drop backs in doors and alcoves etc.

Once you have your measurements you need to add at least 10cm on all sides to allow for the fitting of your new carpet.

When you have the room width you need to check that it is less than the width of the carpet you are buying to avoid any joins, for instance if your room width is 4.5m wide and the carpet you are buying is available in 4m and 5m widths then you should buy the 5m wide carpet.

If the carpet is only 4m wide but the width is more than 4m then you will need to buy either the length of the room by the width twice and use the second piece to fill in a join or buy a 5 meter width carpet that we also hold in stock.

Hall, Stairs & Landings.

You need to measure the stairs taking into account the riser and the tread.

As long as the stairs are all the same you can measure the bottom riser and tread and then multiply this by the amount of steps that you require.

For measuring your hall & landing please follow same guide as measuring a room above.
