    @@eggyfits Nice, I have to do the same as this in my bathroom, I couldn't have picked a better clip to watch for advice, I thought I'd have to slap Evo-Stik everywhere, it's been over 30 years since I last put lino down, used to have to cut it first, then Evo-Stik the floor and lino, then struggle to fit the lino without making any mistakes. But the biggest thing that you've put my mind at rest with is, you laid it straight onto chipboard surface, it's the same as what's down in my bathroom, and so many saying that it should be ply'd first, I just hope I can make as good a job of it as you have here, thanks 👍

    Sorry for the late reply I don't know what that is but normal sisal with a sprayed foam back is what I use if there is gripper you can knock pins down. a normal situations dictate that you glue down the underlay unless it's very heavy underlying not gonna move stapling is not good because you see all the dips where the staples have been after you've glued it thanks for the question@@larrythebarberman

    @@eggyfits Thank you once again for getting back to me !! Okay so have learn’t a bit more about carpet fitting since last week - the problems I was having were as follows: 1. Carpet was not gripping to gripper : cause plush walk 12mm underlay was too high for grippers 2. Carpet was not gripping to gripper, other possible cause - woven back (sisal) a.k.a no bother sisal Solutions: 1 . Raise gripper with 5.5mm plywood strips to get gripper (wood) level with underlay 2. Double bank the gripper ( to rows of gripper side by side) So I think the puzzle should be solved now - thank you once again for your input and your part helping get closer to an answer

    @larrythebarberman5 ай бұрын

    Oh one other thing I should mention (no Bother sisal ) produced by alternative flooring, boast’s this product can be laid like conventional carpet. The reason I was doubting it, was as follows: 1. The company gives no clues how to lay it, or what supporting parts to use ( gripper, underlay) they force you into a supply and fit situation through your local dealer of the product 2. I thought some parts or the fit, maybe like the double stick method 3. the woven back sisal is as tuff as old boots 🥾 which makes you think is it possible
