Carpet is priced by the yard
US carpet and some artificial turf is still sold by the square yard; imported products by the square meter. A $30/yd² carpet is $35.88/m² — the metric price looks higher but isn't. Rolls are usually 12 ft (3.66 m) wide, so you buy whole running feet of a 12 ft roll; the carpet calculator handles the roll layout.
