{"ai_json_enabled":true,"answer":"Installation duration varies with total area, room layout and access, stairs and landings, number of joins, underlay selection, subfloor condition, trims/thresholds and any preparatory work required. To prepare a site, clear small items and fragile objects, provide clear access for tradespeople and vehicles, protect adjacent surfaces and decide furniture placement after installation. Customers should confirm responsibility for furniture moving and old\u2011carpet removal prior to installation, as these are not assumed. Some carpet ranges are available in wider formats, which can reduce joins; current widths vary by product and should be confirmed.
