    Went to my local floor layers shop and he couldn’t recommend any carpets that came in 3 meter drops .

    Might not seem that big an issue but I have 4 rooms all generally 2.8 meters by 4.2 / 5 m so slightly frustrating that 16+ square meters of waste at least

    Can anyone recommend any carpets that do or is it quite niche ? He will be supplying underlay / gripper just trying to save a little on carpet

    Thanks

    Just going to have to buy the 4m widths.
    Is one of the rooms a box room/spare room?

    I had similar few months ago and I managed to get the 3rd bedroom out of the waste with a nice neat join.

    Every room is awkward . Least I can have plenty of spare stairs :) ( the landing however again is 2.6 width at its widest point )

    Tapi carpets have ranges available in 3m, you could see if they have anything you like.

    Abingdon only do a 2 and a 2.5m variant on top of the usual 4 &5m now.

    Associated Weavers still do a 3m in certain carpets from the Invictus range.

    It's one of their "regular" sizes, so comes out at the same cut price we usually pay. They recently discontinued the 1m and 2m drops.

    It's only the Invictus and StainAway ranges - so not on iSense, Softissimo, Vivendi, Sedna etc....

    Oh yes, and around a sixth of the showroom is AW. Have most (if not all) their current pp/sdn/pa products on display.
