We are still doing our PPOR renovation... one thing leads to another, and it is becoming the never ending story.
We got a quote for carpet, underlay and installation, which was $10K for 8 rooms. 6x bedrooms, one living area and one entranceway/ stairs) I was a bit surprised by how high the quote was. We never choose the cheapest products, and we have included a very high quality underlay, because I use a wheelchair part time and need to be able to wheel over the carpet easily.
When I questioned the guy, he suggested that we should allow some joins in some of the rooms, which he said were odd shapes/ sizes. He thought in one room alone we could probably save $500. (we will also probably use a cheaper underlay in rooms I dont use very often).
But we were concerned about the joins..... are they usually visible? Do they affect wear and tear of the carpet? (I'm not quite sure where they will be and how many there will be)
thx
