I listen to this guy when I'm stressed, He makes everything seem okay. I would buy him a dab of ale, now crikey.
I installed my first room of carpet today in a small rental house we acquired. I watched your video yesterday and I have to say I did have fun doing it. Your video answered a lot of questions and I saved money doing it my self and the tools were cheap,I bought them at an auction. Thanks for the video, very informative
Holding up quite well. Thanks
In the same position, how about now?
Rich Parker how about now?

Thank you for this clear and thorough vid! I'm watching it a second time because I'm laying my own carpet today.
thanks for the video, i'm finishing off a room and will be putting a carpet down soon, your direst and to the point directions are just what i needed, thank you
Just a quick tip if your working on a wood surface it's better to staple the underlay in before you trim in to prevent shifting and UN-needed frustration
No. Use padding glue
@@joshuamarroquin803 on concrete yeah but on wood theres no need to adhere the pad that hard to to substrate, staples are more than suffice and you wont mar your plywood underneath to the point of repair the next time its replaced like with a glue. Unless your talking like those actual little squeeze bottles of pad glue I would use them but they're not common stock around here
@@Rock_Shady plus when using staples you know the pad isn’t going to move
Perfect! Thank you for uploading this.
Simple and straight to the point. Thank you
Great video. Gonna do this when the weather is good enough to put all my furniture outside!
perfect, thank you! this helped me carpet my house.
Great video!!!
Awesome instruction and description, thanks so much.
Great video, thanks for posting a do-it-yourself project will save a homeowner $$$
Nice informative video. Thanks !!
Interesting rebond you have. In the US our tacks are beveled at a 45 on one side so you can feel which way they go.
Very well explained. Thank you.
Good tutorial - thank you mate!
Thanks for creating and uploading this very helpful video !
Excellent video, Thank you this helped a bunch.
Thanks for tips
I like how he mentions bragging to your friends about it several times lol
This is amazing g how they put carpet in I had no idea 🤷♀️ 😀
Thanks. Really helped out.
I can hire a person to do my carpet but I'm actually quite interested to do it myself.. So this video has really helped get some ideas and actually build up my confidence! Thank you for this clear, neat and tidy video!
Ertrinkt
Did you end up fitting the carpet yourself? If so how'd you get on with it?
Out door capter
He forgot to mention that 99% of flooring specialists at home improvement stores don't know shit about flooring.
Dont knock it 😀 thats where we get repair jobs over the holiday breaks
"A beautiful room... of carpet"
lmao
lmao
lmfao
lmfao
lmao
Really really good video. Thank you
awesome thank you!
Aaaaaight mate wonderfull
Beautiful work
Thanks!
helpful thanks
Brilliant.
doesnt matter if its a small or big room a carpet stretcher is always needed! But if you want to bust your knees use a kicker
Great job
perfect Thanks
I have go through whole video it is best.
Bob good job
you hit it three times must be a pro
thank you
Does it match the drapes though?
great video
ive seen videos where they say to start in the center of the longest wall. some say start at corners. where are you supposed to start?
I used to install hard wood floors and we always used ply wood for the sub floor ....I've never installed carpet but can you use plywood along with the ( carpet pad) when installing carpet?
nice vid...
Ive been doing remodeling for 3 years and I tell you . Ive seen some really messed up . Ill do it myself jobs . Some are pretty ugly and others they actually had us impress with their own techniques and ideas . Which is not the same as HIRING someone to do it correctly . But doing something yourself can be really fun
Good job, mate. As for those saying he needs a strecher, yes the carpet will wear and eventually have wrinkles. HOWEVER by the time that happens (15-20 years down the road ) the room would be ready for a makeover.
Many, many times it's more like 15-20 months... Just long enough to wear out the one year install warranty
That's what I was wondering.
This just saved my @ss! I have a Belgian, and he ate all of the carpet in front of my door. The renters left some carpet behind. Looks solid!
Do you need to put down new padding every time you install new carpet?
thanks Red Foreman
You mention to make sure the pile is going the right way, how do I know this. thanks
how high off the ground is the skirting board? or is it touching the ground?
Where do you buy the rug gripper or the smooth edge
thanks for the video. Could you please provide the name of edge bar with the nails upright? and the installation layer? Thanks!
Xiaofeng Li in the UK it's called gripper rod/bar and in the US its called tack bar. Amazon ship it in about 600mm /2ft lengths in a cardboard box. Alternatively the pros buy it in 3 and 2 M lengths.
When is it getting stretched? the next day.
sausage man lol fr
Nice
This is the best and precise Video Instruction I ever saw on Carpet Installation. Good Job. I always forward it to all my customers and refer them to alrasbank site for financing.
Hahahahahahahaha
Always read the reviews first cause they always know best 🤣
You mean comments?
lol this is interesting I always get calls from people who buy from bunnings. I wonder if they teach them how to join?
Mate did the carpet had pockets? I just fight w one with heaps of bubly pockets that are impossible to stretch. Would the carpet be funny or old?
im stoned... why am i watchin this
Cuz your carpet looks like shit
rahultmnt me too lmao
Same bro
rahultmnt right
HK- [THE MESSIAH IS COMING] lmfao 😂😂😂
Wow fort your supposed to kick the kicker to stretch the carpet not tap it lol and one tip when you underlay don't let it bubble else your cut it to short
Nice video, good learning video.
Great video, very straight forward with the information. I think all I need is a carpet laying kit
nice n if the wall was a tan color it would be so much cuter
very nice installation and explanation. looking forward to do my whole flat :-) Thanks
did ya put in NEW! Baseboard
Im ready to impress all my friends
And don't forget to always keep the carpet fuzzy side up when installing .
This is Bunnings , like the say buy cheap buy twice
There is a specific kicking pattern when doing a room, if it's not installed properly u will have bubbles.
Whens he cutting it 10mm away from the skirting and using the bolster to get a smooth egde is that going under the skirting or butt up to it, would you be left with a lip or a ripple if you went butt up to the skirting, as I haven't got a gap under my skirting.
Any help would be appropriate.
it but up to the smooth edge
You should tuck it under the baseboard then cut.
I'm just curious, he had a seam but he didnt connect the two. How did that work? Also, how is it now?
Do you need the underlay if your working on a wooden floor or can you just go straight to laying down carpet? Noob here!
***** I like that word, "footsies." It sounds cute.
3:53... That's not a knife
+Double Gunns Croc Dundee......"Now that`s a Knife!"............
lol everyone getting upset that he didn't use a stretcher in a room the size of a small jail cell. A kicker would do the job fine here.
Not with the way that dude is kicking ...if you're going to "boot'n'scoot" you have to have some power behind it.
This guy even kicks the same place twice! Without lifting the head! ..we both know that should put a hole in it
I wish he do a video on how to join seams and door ways
So when do you use a stretcher to straightening out the carpet? I didn't see you do it
We call it tack strip here in michigan
if you need to used power strech
how do you install how do you install
4:38 because we can't staple into the concrete.... But you have!! Lol
not a trade it's diy job... big difference
Why is he wearing an apron
lol
Adam Wallis he don't want to scuff up his knickers lol
that Apron is from a hardware shop called Bunnings in Australia, so i presume he works there.
Bc he's a gangster
So people like you would ask questions.
It’s called tackless or tack strip
How do you get a nail in concrete?
Equaldust 493416 technique
Haaaa I love how people say you need a power stretcher. No you don't, not in small rooms. If you kick it correctly you will have no issues
He is to old to used the kicker
Tip 1: Always buy 1 piece of carpet which fits the entire room to begin with.
True fact bro
wow what a hack ...room is definitely gonna need a restretch in no time...this dude would never make it in a carpet one store
not only would I say it to his face but I'd probably be hired to fix jobs done by guys like this...
if you do shitty work I'd gladly let you know to your face ...I get tired of fixing half ass jobs
just don't do shitty work and I won't have to hurt your feelings
you mad bro? lol!!!😭
do you really want to leave your mom's basement to meet people to kick your scrawny ass for some comments on RUclips? You ma'am are a fucktard!
You dont have to adhere the underlay to the concrete?
Had lots of people call us who tried to fit their own carpet they need us to fix what they stuffed its like doing Ur own plumbing leave it to a Pro
What is Kaaahpit?
Good video, but carpet layers doing this everyday must have terrible backs, knees and necks.
Back more than anything most of us use stretchers so the knees not so bad.
Jeez the comments below are hilarious, people ready to kill each other over how to lay carpet.
Maybe its time to start Carpet Cage Fighting, you have try and lay carpet while at the same time trying to beat the shit out of the other carpet layer who uses a different technique to you.
No hand contact and the only weapon is the knee kicker.
Bruh im weak
@@blairjames414 😂😂😂😂
I don't think we have a Bunnings here in America...lmao.
You have to kick it harder than that! Not you will have wrinkles to come up. Not using right knee kicker either.. that one done even have the spikes it's just for moving carpet, or to help on making seams.
My mans using a kids knee kicker
I check a lot of woodworking handbooks. These one from woodprix are the best.
That stretch will not hold
Its not that it won't hold its more that it's not enough to stop it wrinkling a couple months down the track.
