Carpet installation,,,,how long should it take?

We finished our basement this summer with a builder. Everything has been smooth and easy until the final project---carpet installation.

Today will be day 2. He spent 12 hours yesterday laying 3 rooms of carpet. I've had a whole house done in less time. The carpet is normal and simple.

I'm trying not to complain to the builder because I fear retaliation from the carpet guy. I'll be done with all these people after he's gone so what would the point be? I'm frustrated. If I complain here I can get it out of my system.

Still, the guy had his girlfriend here for half the day, they took an 1.5 lunch break and she brought in her 7 year old child at 6 pm. We told them to be gone at 9 pm so my kids could sleep for school today.

Who brings others to work with them? Just get it done and be gone!
