I would like to replace my caravan carpet with vinyl/flotex, does anyone know how to do this or a company that could do it for me.

Any suggestions / advice would be appreciated. Thanks Nicola

If you have the job done by a carpet shop you can make the job cheaper if you remove the old one yourselves

.Sometimes the fittings are on top or the carpet is stapled around the edges and these are a pig to get out.I took ours up while on site a couple of weeks back ready for some vinyl and it took a couple of hours to get all the tiny staples out as we have a trap where the spare wheel is and there were hundreds of them.If you leave any sticking up it will make fitting vinyl difficult

Fairly easy job for me as i am a carpet fitter, its just finding the time to go to the van in storage to do it.

Guys

Thanks for all the advise, i was quoted £360 for doing it, so i might give my hubby a couple of patience pills and see it he can do it.

Thats after i have a quote from a carpet fitter, if it is not to expensive i may not have to endure the swear words.
