Carpet laying is easier than plumbing, just do it yourself!


Might be to you, but it's not to me. If you want a neat job, that is. ;-)


I'll second that. I'll do any job on our house except for carpet laying
and whole-room plastering. I am not good enough to get a decent finish,
and I don't have enough rooms to practice on.

Yup. And if you make a mistake in plumbing, it's no big deal to simply do
that part again. Slice into a 1000 quid carpet wrongly and there's not
much you can do to fix it.

Call in Bob the Builder, he can fix it
