Carpets for 2 bed bungalow

Dick_here

2 'normal' sized rooms, a small 2nd bedroom and a hallway. They're coming round to measure properly, but in the shop I was quoted (very roughly, obviously) £775 covering carpet, underlay, grippers, fitting etc.

Is this a decent sounding price ?

Seems the thing is to find the carpet, and get the underlay and grippers elsewhere

See if you can get someone to recommend a good fitter.

Good luck

Seems fair to me - does depend on quality of carpet and underlay though, how much is that per m?

The carpet is 58 sq m @ 6.50 per sq m = £377.

Underlay £190.

Labour £180.

Grippers / door bars etc £65.

Total £812. Would this inc VAT, it isn't mentioned ?

They'll take up and remove the old stuff for £10 per room. Worth it ?
