Interested in installing carpet in your home?
Great!
Wondering about the optimal carpet type? What key characteristics should you prioritize?
We’re here to offer some guidance.
Here are four essential terms to grasp when choosing carpeting…
Density — This indicates how closely threaded the carpet is. Higher density carpets tend to be of better quality and more durable.
Fibre — This refers to the material composing the carpet. Common fibers include nylon, polyester, polypropylene, acrylics, wool, and sisal.
Pad — This is the layer beneath the carpet, providing insulation and enhancing comfort while walking. Typically, it’s a thin foam, fiber, or rubber pad.
Pile — This describes the carpet’s surface and how the fiber tufts are looped, cut, or uncut, primarily influencing style.
Now, consider these four factors…
Cleaning — How manageable will it be to clean the carpet? Opt for stain or soil-resistant options for easier maintenance.
Room — Which rooms will the carpet adorn? Common spaces include bedrooms, living rooms, family rooms, playrooms, and dining areas.
Pets — Is the carpet suitable for homes with pets? This consideration becomes crucial if pets are present.
Underlayment — The underlayment contributes to the carpet’s comfort and longevity. Consult the manufacturer for the best choice!
