What the example includes—and leaves out The 475-square-foot allowance reflects a fictional layout, not a standard waste percentage. Confirm carpet width, pattern and seam placement for the selected product. Outside this scope: No subfloor repair, furniture moving, stair carpeting, specialty pattern matching or floor leveling. Keep unresolved selections and site conditions visible.
