    I once took a frantic phone call from my husband when we were having carpets fitted.

    HIM: "Did you order red carpet?"
    ME: "No, cream, why?"
    HIM: "It's red I tell you, RED!!"

    It was the underlay that was red. LOL

    lol a difficult time. whats difficult about ordering underlay and getting underlay.

    You need to get a grip.

    You ordered underlay and are getting underlay. If you wanted 9mm or whatever you should have ordered it.

    Let them fit your carpets and keep your unknowledgable nose out of it.


    Yes, pardon me for getting out of an abusive relationship and having to buy a house and start from scratch with nothing.

    I was that stressed out with everything going on I didn't even think to ask about the type of underlay when I ordered it, we can't all be perfect.

    Now, why don't you go and patronise someone else.

    If by a difficult time,you mean in your personal life,I am sure no one on here would want to make that worse.Its just that you have been somewhat unclear in what you wanted.Anyway,I hope the carpet looks great and I wish you a better new year.

    thank you, at least there are some people out there who are understanding instead of getting a kick out of someone going through a bad time.

    my oh works in the carpet business. where did you order from?

    what the fitters have said is correct and cloud 9 and cosi are same in quality just different names.

    they cannot nail gripper into quarry tile however he says they should glue it instead.
    There's someone in my head, but it's not me
