It is easier than you have thought actually; installing carpets isn’t really difficult as compared to decorating your house all by yourself. You need simple tools that you can find at your nearest hardware store; knee kicker, seaming iron, seam tape and cutter, power stretches, strip cutter and steam roller. Placing the under pad down in form of strips without overlapping them is the first step that needs to be done. You need to make sure to trim out the underlay in excess in order to make it look perfect.

Now you need to draw a line along the back of the carpet overlapped and trim out a plane edge just before overlapping with the help of a row cutter.  Using the seaming tape in the center of the seam right under it the adhesive is melted by the iron slowly. The edges of the carpets can now be pressed against each other followed by rolling the seam with a pin. The power stretcher keeps the carpet hooked and makes sure that it’s evenly pressed.
