As a fitter the above comments are correct. I would go for an 8mm underlay, yours looks like 10mm to me? And i always cut the underlay back on the...
Hello, I've had a look at the post before you and your photos. I hate to say it but its the carpet that's made that way. It's a woven carpet, like...
10mm is the max I use. Just buy a thicker carpet!
Wow, you wouldn't be able to put gripper down in 5 days without smashing up skirting boards! Sorry mate, it's a skill and takes years we just...
Sounds like it's a job they didn't want to do or can't so whacked the price up. It takes a lot more time then a standard staircase but someone...
I have a rage and it's a bit harsh. Got a new toy.. a grinder Chopsaw or you can get a stand for a regular grinder from Amazon. A metal grinder...

Mmmmm, glad they went but sounds like he creased it up a bit and couldn't stretch them out. Probably in the width, harder to get out. Nice that he...
Well gel back carpet isn't really ment for gripper but I would do a tight gap as the thinner the carpet the small the gap. Go's in tight and spray...
