Here’s the lowdown on modern carpet.

 

Best Types of Carpet

 

Whether you’re working on a brand-new project or a carpet replacement, we are here to make choosing a carpet easy for you, and to help you to understand your many options.

 

As you begin to explore the wide array of carpet styles available, one of the first things you should narrow down is what type of fiber you prefer.

 

We also have high, medium, and low pile carpets. It’s always a good idea to give yourself plenty of time to browse through the various special features, such as stain-resistance, crush-resistance, and fade-resistance.

 

There are even have waterproof carpets, which are great for families who have multiple pets or children. Our waterproof carpets are ideal for finished basements.

 

What Types of Carpet Fibers Are There?

 

We offer high performance synthetic carpet fibers like nylon, polyester, and triexta carpet, as well as naturals like wool.

 

  • Nylon is most popular compared to other synthetic fibers like polyester. The benefits of nylon include impressive performance, and the fact that it looks better for longer. One thing you should know about nylon is that it needs to be treated: namely, each fiber needs to be coated in a stain resistant treatment, so stains won’t take hold in the dyed areas.

 

  • Polyester costs a lot less than nylon carpets but may not be as durable as other options. New technology is changing the way polyester is made, however, making it more durable than what homeowners have become used to. In fact, newer versions of polyester don’t need to be treated for stain-resistance.

 

  • Olefin/polypropylene should be installed in residential areas in low traffic spaces. This carpet is best for quiet rooms or for families who aren’t very active in the home. Olefin carpet has decorative patterns that are designed to be looked at rather than be lived on.

 

  • Wool is one of few natural fibers and is considered a “green” option. Wool is considered a hypoallergenic option because it traps allergens and stops them from floating into the breathing zone. It’s warm, long-lasting, and bright-colored.

 

  • Triexta is a cousin to polyester. It is inherently stain resistant, and unlike nylon fibers it does not need to be treated to be stain resistant. Many consider triexta carpet as an equal option to nylon.

 

Where Can Carpet Be Installed?

 

Avoid installing carpets in bathrooms and kitchens.

 

Most carpets absorb moisture, which creates an ideal environment for harmful allergens and mold. Even with waterproof carpet options, one should always avoid using carpet for these areas.

 

If you have an active family, we recommend using carpet that is stain, fade, and wear resistant. After all- why buy a carpet that you constantly need to look after when we have carpets that are perfect for your space and lifestyle?

 

Modern carpets are more durable than you think and can handle places around your home with heavy traffic or frequent accidents, including:

 

 

  • Hallways
  • Stairs
  • Living Rooms
  • Entryways
  • Children’s Playrooms
  • Home Offices
  • Meeting Rooms
  • Waiting Rooms
  • Retail Shops
  • Hotels
  • Restaurants
  • Dens
  • Finished Basements

 

 

Wherever you choose to install new carpet, a professional flooring installation is usually your best option. Carpet installation isn’t a simple job: It involves careful stretching, measuring, padding, and tools. Stay safe and ensure many happy tomorrows by letting our experts handle it all.
