Hints and Tips Collecting accurate dimensions
Once all measurements have been taken you can plan what you need to buy taking into account the width of carpet you wish to purchase. In the event that the width of the hallway or landing is greater than the width of the available flooring then you will need to include a join. This area can be used as an infill from excess from the other areas if available.
Seams should run towards primary light sources where possible and be kept to a minimum where possible.
Seams should always be kept to a minimum and avoided where possible.
Carpet should all run in the same direction.
Always begin measurements in the centre of doorways rather than the bottom of walls.
You should allow extra in your purchase for patterned goods such as Wilton, Graphics etc to allow for pattern matching.
Colour is difficult to match between dye batches and different widths so we would recommend that you purchase all you require at the same time specifying all cuts to come from the same dye batch.
