I am getting conflicting info. Need to recarpet the clubhouse - 15 x 15

room. one estimate is 220 sq YDS and the other is 60 sq YDS. what am I
missing here - other than the ability to figure out how many sq. yds. +
excess for a 225 sq ft. room.


You have 25 sq yards to cover. However, and this does not account for
some of the numbers you got, it does not mean you only need 25 sq yards of
carpet. Consider how wide the carpet comes, they will not and you will not,
want to piece small pieces together to make use of some of the waste. I
don't know how they figure the waste and charge you

I suggest you make sure they do the measuring and give you a firm price
quote for the carpet you want installed with the pad you want and let them
worry about how much carpet they will need and you worry about how much they
are charging and if you trust them.
