Default Fitting carpet - DIY?

And in five years all the foam turns to black dust and makes the floor lumpy
and it comes up at the corners? Or is foam backed better these days.

I'm about to research DIY carpet fitting, just wondering if anyone has
done the same and were you pleased with the results?

The first room i'm planning to do is only about 3m x 3m so not too much
of a liability.


Last one did was 3m x 3.5m (mini cinema room) and just used double
sided carpet tape stuck to the floor screed all around the perimeter of
the room and stuck it down. It's been fine for the last 3 or 4 years.
Carpet was a foam-backed off-cut, no underlay, underfloor heated.

Easy peasy.
