If you are installing carpets in your residential or commercial property, hiring the right professional is important. They have years of experience in the industry and are aware of the various complications which might arise when fitting carpets. Here are a few tips to make the carpet installation process quick and hassle-free.
Few Steps You Can Follow When Fitting A Carpet
• Instead of relying on the videos available online, hire experienced carpet fitters to measure the room. They will measure the length and breadth of each room before calculating the total square metres.
• Choosing the right type of carpet for your home will become easier if you consider the area you are carpeting. If you are planning to fit carpet in high traffic areas like the staircases, you should buy a hardwearing fibre carpet. A softer material is suitable for carpets in your living room and bedroom.
• Just buying new carpets for your room isn’t sufficient. It is your responsibility to dispose of the old carpet before the new carpet arrives. Some councils have a recycling policy for carpet removal. You can even donate it or use it to insulate compost heaps.
• Once you have removed the previous carpet, remove all the furniture from the room and clear it. Don’t forget to vacuum the existing carpet before removing it and wear a dust mask during the process.
• Removing the old carpet is a complicated task so take the aid of experienced carpet fitters.
• Once the carpet has been removed, get rid of the old underlay. Even if you think that it will last for a few more years, replacing it will enhance the life of your new carpet. You can use adhesive remover and scraper to remove the underlay if it is glued.
• Assess the condition of the bare floor after removing the underlay and decide whether they need repair. Vacuum the floor to get rid of the debris before installing a new carpet.
• Hire carpet fitters to fit the new carpet. Carpet suppliers offer fitting services at a low price. You can have complete peace of mind by hiring professionals as they ensure that the floor covering is laid properly.
