    You do an awesome job at explaining your work and I am a DIY guy and I have followed your videos and advice on installing carpet and I have to admit it looks like a professional job. So thank you for your videos! I have liked all that I have watched and I have subscribed to your channel. Thanks again!

    I cut the cross seams with a T square instead double cut but every one have different options.

      @@FloorsbySouthernboys , I also use ,,actually a drywall t-square. I used to do it like this , I would use my straight edge to keep the length straight, push my cross up against it! Do you have to seal all seams? I always did regardless! Now it's required again on all carpets in Ohio. Used to be Berbers and karastans. But one dollar and twenty minutes have saved me a lot of headaches I'm sure. I don't do videos so on other videos when people ask questions I send them to your channel. I use different techniques than you a lot but yours are correct, there are so many videos that I watch that the guys are just hack that I can't believe they would put it on Utube!!

    Ruben I like your videos and I’m not in any way debating your style but over the last 50+- years of installing I’ve found some quicker ways on cutting what we call the “butt” seams. Throw that straight edge away first of all. Use that same seam cutter you used on the long side seam. Just use the blade closest to the piece your going to use so it cuts close to the yarn. No flipping carpet over two times and as you said the yarn covers over the seam edge.
    Just a tip from an ole guy 🙄

    Always cut your side seams with nap falling down also you could of layed all 3 pieces face down and place your straight edge over 2 pieces so you can cut both without moving straight edge and after seaming sides cut the length seam last.

    Basicly why to seal the seam if taylor seamiron do it at the same time thanks i will appreciate your answer because i am thinking buy one of those but if works the same as a regular seaming iron other than the ligth idon 't see a benefit thanks

    I’ve come across plenty of jobs where rookies have tried to install rooms and they cut the carpet wrong or they run two different carpets in the wrong different directions or someone butches the carpet up so bad that you have to put a head seam in which in the carpet world is a no no!
