This was old farmhouse. The baseboards were actually pretty beat up from 100+ years of use. I used to carry old English and sometimes buff after I would get done putting carpet in
Sometimes those subtle patterns are tougher to line up than a something distinct! Always a treat to watch, where I’m from, it’s scary to watch other carpet guys work haha. Have a Good Friday floorinator see you next time.
Glad I could entertain you! I enjoy watching others work as well. It’s always fun to see a different way to get the project done and have it still look awesome!
I am currently picking up all those pro tips of the trade. Been at it for 5 or 6 years. That's how long it takes to really get good at notching and taking excess from other parts. Too much complication to say in a comment. I'm lucky enough. The guy I'm learning from doesn't want to do carpet that much anymore so that's my time to shine lol
I saw your TH-cam channel. Your videos are very nice. But due to some problem in your channel, your video view and channel subscribers are not getting. May I explain in more detail if you allow?
Normally, that’s exactly how I would do it! But I tried this out and it works pretty good. The one bedroom at the back of the hall I left my cuts a little full. I figured what happened in the video was going to happen anyways, and I wanted to have some extra carpet just in case I started moving things a little crazy.
@@jonathancowdin3775 I wasn’t overly excited about it, but it actually came back pretty darn easy. I set the stretcher head up parallel with the door and when I took the stretch, it naturally wanted to pull away from the door. Straightening the hall right back out. Ran a row right down the middle measured to the wall and knee kicked the stretcher head a little. Like I said, I normally like to take big stretches down the hallway and then hook bedrooms on.
Did great work not scratching up the baseboards. Dark stained are the worst especially if you aren’t installing soft back. Beautiful work as usual

Good for you. Nationwide good carpet installers are rare to find

I imagine the job will still last a considerable time that way, but twisting and binding up like that certainly isn't the best way
I chase out my whole hallway width wise too on a cut pile, but patterns I usually wait on width, play it by the situation
