Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

I strongly suggest you contact a carpet company in your area. Most will give you a free estimate. You don't have the tools to do a good job with this anyway.

I don't believe this post is a troll but there are a few problems with your two posts.

Where did you get your tape measure? Probably a typo but there are only 12 inches in a foot, not 13 inches.

As you're using feet and inches, you're probably in the USA. Carpet here is sold by the square yard, not square meters. We can give you both square yards and square meters but we need to work the bugs out of 22 feet 13 inches first.

Carpet is sold in 13' and 15' widths. Buying 23' of carpet 13' wide and cutting it to 4' wide is a complete waste of money.
