Amount of carpet to order
Anonymous user 28/02/2024 - 2.52 PM
Hi, I was trying to figure out how much carpet/vinyl I would need to have my whole house redone. I did the following calcs which I would be grateful if an expert fitter could advise on. All the carpet will be the same to make things easier. The parts I am unsure on is the stairs and lounge, where the width of the carpet (4m wide) is smaller than the length needed. Any help will be gratefully received. Lounge - could the carpet be stretched 0.06m? 5.1m X 4.06 = 20.69 sqm Carpet 4m x 5.25m = 21sqm Bedroom 1 3.72m X 3.27m = 12.15 sqm Carpet 4m X 3.5m = 14 sqm Bedroom 2 3.28m x 2.79m = 9.12 sqm Carpet 4m X 3m = 12 sqm Bedroom 3 3.16m X 2.0m = 6.32m Carpet 4m X 2.25m = 9sqm Upstairs Hall 2.32m X 2.27m = 5.24sqm Downstairs Hall 1.05m X 2.35sqm = 2.46sqm Upstairs & Downstairs Combined Carpet 4m X 5m = 20sqm Stairs - (11 steps, fall = 0.24m, tread = 0.22m, width = 0.8m) 5.06m X 0.8m = 4.05sqm Carpet 4m X 2m = 8sqm Kitchen 3.98m X 2.10m = 8.36sqm Vinyl Flooring 4m x 2.25m = 9sqm Bathroom 1.15m X 1.46m = 1.68sqm w/c 1.75m X 0.76m = 1.32sqm Vinyl Flooring For Bathroom & Kitchen 3m X 2.5m = 7.5sqm Thanks, Priya
