Tip: When comparing prices on vinyl, timber, ceramic tiles etc, remember that carpet is often sold and quoted by the linear metre or 'broadloom metre' (1m x 3.67m) while most other products are sold and described in square metres (1m x 1m). That means, you are getting around 3.5 times more carpet for the comparable square metre price of other products.
