Our carpet fitters have modified the door height to clear new carpet. None have removed the doors though.
Hi Clive i think it because we brought some new underlay and then the new carpet would not go under door height the fitter removed the door .
Good progress. Nusiance that you have to reduce the door height.
Be careful with that. Some doors are not solid wood and may have a limit to the amount you can cut off before it weakens the door frame. It's possible you may need to take some off the top and bottom to reduce the risk.

When my son had a look at the living room door it was solid wood but he took off 10mm at the bottom and there only one more door so thanks for the information.
We used the EasyCare on the recomendation of the decorator. But not at Skye high prices, about £38. It is expensive, but it has proved the test of time. We are very happy with it and did not have ill effects from the smell. In fact, it was not particularly unpleasant.

We're in the south now visiting family. Guess what....Dad can you paint my lounge and bedroom?
So got some Dulux Easycare, mixed in the store at Homebase...£38 for 2.5l, which was the same as the last can on Skye. Not sure why we got charged more than that previously...maybe the price has dropped.

All this talk of decorating has caught me out. Last week I took my wife and daughter to a Dunelm, ostensibly for new bedroom curtains. We bought some curtains but I have now got to install a curtain rail with draw cords. Then there's the new window blind too. Also daughter suggested to my wife a papered wall at the bedhead would look nice. Suffice to say we then bought three rolls of paper. Some years ago I ditched my paper pasting table, soft wide brushes etc, vowing never again to put wallpaper up. And just for good measure two wired bedded lights have been acquired which will need setting into the wall and wiring back to socket. Plus the en suite electric heated radiator towel rail must now be replaced as it has rust on it. I suggested it be removed and not replaced as in four years here it has only been switched on once, just to see if it worked. Lost that one too, as just removing it would leave holes in the tiles.
Good luck with the Dunelm curtains. Mrs V is currently remaking the ones our daughter got from Dunelm for the patio doors. The quality of finish was appalling...width and length variable across the curtain.
Should have really taken them back but the colour/pattern goes well and no guarantee others would be any better.
Get what you pay for I guess.
It never stops does it.
