You need enough carpet to cover the floor

Trike,
    Since your in my neighbor hood could you give me some contact info on whoever you have doing the vinyl for you, I will be looking to farm some of that out soon.

I seem to remember buying 6 yards. Just find out how wide the carpet is then just measure it up. If the width is sufficient to do the floor and sides, then simply the length of the floor divided by 3 is your answer. If not, then the floor length times two and then divided by 3 is your answer.

Sorry, but no I did not have to replace the carpet as I deemed it in good condition and was able to protect it sufficiently during the restoration process. But, I would call a carpet supplier and inquire about the available widths and actual widths.

well, I bought 36' by 6' of carpet from Lowes for $100. I had to get plenty of it because it has "lines" and I want them to all go in the same direction. Its nice carpet and even if I bought 20 bucks too much who cares.
I figured 15 x 5 for the floor 18X3 for the one long side, should have plenty left to wrap the shelf thing there and seat base, few misc pieces. If not, Lowes is not that far away. Im going to try to chalk trace the old pieces on the new and cut it out, glue it in.
