Can you install your own carpet?


Question:my husband is extremely handy and we do all our work ourselves ...just wondering if anyone has ever installed their own carpet and how tat wokrd out for you?

Answers:
You can definitely install your own carpet if you get the right tools to do so. However, installing laminate hardwood flooring is easier and stays cleaner reducing allergens, mold, and smell.


Yes, you can. Most tool rental places will have the tools you need, but if this is a first time, I would suggest hiring a carpet layer and watch how it is done. It takes practice to get the seams right.
yes you can, it is actually very easy to do it if you have the right tools, my dad usually does all the work himself and he built a new room in our house and installed carpet he used this site...
