New carpet

So we are having our attic room/ loft conversion decorated, the carpet is 8 years old. It was cream once, but has plenty of stains now! I went to carpet right to price up a new carpet. £9.99 per square metre. Our room is long ( 11 metres or 36 feet) but narrow ( 10 foot at widest point) by the time fitting, lifting, delivery, removal, underlay and grippers were added the cost was £830. For a boring mushroom coloured bedroom carpet. This is so expensive! We have 6 bedrooms to do, this is just one of them! Any ideas if you can buy carpet cheaper elsewhere?
TIA

How much is removal and disposal? You can possibly save a chunk by doing that bit yourself.

Check out independent carpet fitters in your area. They often work out cheaper. We order direct from the fitter which cuts out the overheads charged by the carpet shop.
