Always get your room measured by a
professional from a reputable carpet retailer.
In doing this you will ensure the best fit and potentially save money from using the right width to reduce the amount of waste.

Think about how much wear the carpet will receive. Hall and stair carpets generally get more wear than those in bedrooms, so consider investing in more durable carpets where they will be used the most.

Try out carpet samples in the room and check you are happy with the shade in different lights, including daylight and at night. Although samples give a good indication, they should only be used as a guide because there may be colour variations.

Don’t skimp on underlay – a good quality one will make your carpet look better and last longer.

Professional fitting of your carpet is always the recommended option.
