Any time I've bought carpet, they've always offered to fit gripper rods
and underlay for no extra cost, as long as I bought them from the place -
they usually charge a lot more for the materials though, so I've always
ended up doing the gripper rods and underlay myself and just getting them
to fit the carpet (I might try fitting myself next time as we're doing the
small spare room, an ideal room to mess up on my first attempt!)



I have never had underlay in my room before so I dont wanna attemot the
gripepr stuff myself - i wil lwatch and learn.


It really is easy - if you ask here how to do it I'm sure several people
(including me) will post details and you can choose the best bits from
each!

Still I wont miss having to lug around all the carpet, making it fit, cut it
and getting sweaty


Never done that bit, but I'm going to have a go next time!

Anyhow - i will have the real work of reassmbling my bed and wardrobe
afterwards!


Sure enough, thats where the fun starts!
