carpet laying - direction to go...
Dave wrote:
Next week I (hope) to lay a (more or less) fitted carpet in a bedroom. The room has a semi-circular bay window, two plain walls, and the other has a chimney breast in the middle of it. Which direction is best to start laying the carpet from. I guess start from plain wall opposite bay and work toward bay? How exactly I'm going to cut an accurate curve to fit the bay I shall of course leave until the very last moment :-) thanks (ps Yes I know I should get real carpet fitters it - but I'd like to try and diy this one). Your best getting the carpet fitters in. My local carpet shop throws in the fitting free,provided its not cheap carpet. You will struggle to cut/workout how best to cut the bay window area doing it the way you have said. I'd work from the bay window first. -- Sir Benjamin Middlethwaite |
