FAQ
Why does carpet need a waste allowance?
Carpet comes in fixed-width rolls and the pile direction must match between pieces, so installers cut and discard more than with tile or plank flooring.
How do I convert square meters to square yards?
One square yard equals 0.836 square meters, so divide your area in m² by 0.836 — the result line shows both units.
Does this include underlay and installation?
No — it prices the carpet only. Budget separately for underlay, gripper rods, and labor, often quoted per square meter.
