How much cost to carpet 4 rooms (mid price carpet).?
I am buying a flat and the seller wants to charge me for carpets (don't think I can call their bluff on this). Carpets were not in the place when they purcased [shared ownership]. I need a rough estimate for carpeting a 2 bed flat.
2 bed rooms approx 12x8ft
1 hall approx 3x18ft
1 lounge approx 12x18ft
Not the kitchen/bathroom
I need to know the re-carpeting costs before I offer somehting for the current carpet as I don't have much case available after the purcahse.
Any help with coming up with a rough cost for purchase and fitting (including underlay) would be really helpful.

First of all, i still do not understand why they are charging you for carpet? Did you not say that you are buying the flat? The cost should include the flat, everything inside is included. I would talk to a real estate attorney before i hand over any cash. If you want a real estimate, call someone who sells carpet or go to the showroom with your estimates. They can give you exact cost plus installation costs.
Bit of a guess, but off head-top £1200?
You really need to call a few people out to give you a "FREE" price quote. It can vary so much, depending on the area you live in, if they need to move your furniture, etc.. Call an expert and find out, it will be much better for you that way.
Yeah, I agree, you just be buying the place regardless of whats in it. If the current owners want to give you new carpet and include that in their price that is up to them.
If you want to install new carpet after you buy it then that is up to you and wouldn't effect the value.
Firstly i dont know how they can justify selling them to you, they sound tight.
A carpet has a five year life span,(this is a general guideline) so i would find out how long they have been in there, and they cannot charge you for this time while they have been in there as you were not occupying the property, and they cannot expect you to pay the same amount as it would for you to recarpet the whole property. say they have been in thier three years, this would mean the carpets have a two year life left. i suggest going to a carpet shop with the measurements and getting a quote and then divide that by five, and if they have been in there 3 years offer them 2/5ths of the price the carpet shop quote you.
the reason i am saying do it like this is because i work in a letting/estate agents, and this is how we resolve issues with security deposits if the landlord wants to claim for carpet damages.
Hope it heps you
You seem to have 54 square yards of space for which you would need to buy around 66 square yards of carpet to allow for cutting. A good mid range carpet is around £9 per square yard so around £600 but then you have to pay for fitting.I reckon you could get away with £1000
