Quake3World

Carpets were recently replaced under insurance and I am having difficulty in the company seeing there is a problem

To me it is obvious. I value your opinion so what do you think?
Use the magnify option and you see it as it is

++++++++++++

I'd have thought that by your ripe old age you'd know the right people to get the job done properly. You should have asked about to make sure you got people who are good at it to do it. I hope you get it resolved

Thanks and so true of course DTS.

If I had picked the business to do the work I'd have some clout, IE not pay until satisfied sort of deal but this is a little different, this company was chosen by the insurance company and in their defense they (insurance co haven't seen the finished job (yet)...

I have just compiled and email to the insurance company with the same photos.
Just tell me it is an obvious problem (as you have ) and I'll be happy ..

Ohhh, you might want to get a better insurance company...

Lol that's shit...

well I could handle the join in the doorway, but the join in front of the sofa is fucking lollable.

i think you should execute every last motherfucking one of them for this crime against interior decor

^

They'll probably end up with excuses like how it'll disappear over time so you shouldn't worry about it.
They always try to get away with shit like that.

Did they forget tO install pad? Did u get a shit pad or upgrade? Looks like u both fucked up...

I see cheap carpet with shitty, visible seams. Time to grab yer shotgun.

agreed. Shitty carpet coupled with a shitty installation.

shitty as shit

Quite shit.

And the poll should be changed:

[A] Grow a pair and force these cunts to do a decent job
Shrivel and whine on Q3W, while you fucking know you should go with option [A]

^ This. What did they use, 2 foot wide rolls of carpet? They might as well try carpeting your floors with streamers. Looks like your insurance company is trying to hire the cheapest contractors with the cheapest grade carpets to try to pull a fast one one you. You might want to check to make sure these guys didn't carpet over your cat in some corner of the house.

lol, your right though, its been a while but I thought you only needed joins if it was over 12-15 foot wide ?, they laid it the wrong way ?... it looks like someone just rolled a piece of wallpaper under your sofa lol

Id be going through the roof tbh, have them fix that then n all

also, cream carpet ?, your sposed to be wise, man

This thread screams POOR PPL...lol...

being poor relative numb nuts, if your as posh as you say your sucking top trump ass

even i don't know what that means, and i can usually understand welsh people

gissa cwtch boyo

yea looks shit

welcome to my world tho

now that my little ones are bigger i'm ready to move to hard surface floors

my wife has been telling me to find a hardwood installer

but i am so fucking sick of these type of services/installers

i do not like paying to be turned into a complainer, i fucking hate that.

so i just lalala ignore everything! lol

Hardwood floors are actually quite easy to install yourself. As with most things around the house, don't trust contractors when you can do it yourself.

Thanks all for the opinions. Appreciated
Seems I am correct in my beliefs.

Yes they tried that on the install day a month/6 weeks ago.
They said the join would settle down and disappear
I said I don't think so (may age and experience the better of them) but agreed their boss attend in a month. I couldn't wait and had them back in a week.

Two install experts have attended thus far and say it is technically installed correctly*.

Plan B:
Shrivel and whine on Q3W...
Thought you knew me by now
I intend to chase this to the ends of the Earth for justice.


losCHUNK:
What's wrong with cream carpet?
It is expensive New Zealand wool. Very nice and soft to walk on.
My beef is the two different textures/densities.

...you only needed joins if it was over 12-15 foot wide ?, they laid it the wrong way ?

Yes wrong way was my immediate though but they have demonstrated they are both laid in the same direction. I just see different density carpet?

The photos don't do the room size justice and I thought large today by comparison to most others I have seen in apartments.
Hang on, just measured the room and fyi and it is 4m x 7.5m (13.2 feet x 24.7 feet)
So the room being wider/longer than the carpet width, I expect a join somewhere.

In all previous carpet installs they have never been visible and I always choose a wool berber carpet

*The manufacturer is attending soon and I should wait to see what they say.

At the end of the day I was looking for opinion across the world, hence Q3W, so thanks again. I am not alone

I wouldn't be happy with it. Especially if this is a home you plan on living in for a long time. But it really wouldn't bother me that much when it comes down to it.
