I am not an employee of carpet land however, I do install carpet and have been in the industry for over 7 years. Square foot pricing is put in view instead of Square yard pricing because it is the law to do so. Every retailer in the country has to do that. As far as extr carpet, carpet is manufactured in 12',13'6",and 15' goods. Depending on what the manufacturer has to offer the estimate has to be made on those numbers. If a room is 14' wide and the manufacturer does not have 15' goods then your retailer has to order extra carpet in order to cover that floor. yes there is waist, we cannot get away from that. If a customer wants more seems then some retailers will cut off some of the carpet but that will not give a good instalation. Less seams are better. Your salesperson should have explained that to you. I am sorry that you are not enjoying you new floor. If you have any other questions feel free to email me at Ejkps@aol. My name is Eric Kuhn. thanx.
