What you need to know about carpet

If you've picked carpet for a floor covering in areas of your home, you’ve probably already made some important decisions. For instance, it’s likely you’ve already considered that carpet is much better for a softer and warmer feel in the home. You might also know it’s a safer floor covering for homes where elderly persons live. No matter what your specific reason, this is the flooring to go with when hard surface materials just won’t do.

The first thing you’ll want to know is that you’re buying a carpet that has the right kind of and style for your home. For instance, you wouldn’t want to buy a high pile, extremely plush carpet for an area with extremely high traffic, or stairs. It would crush quickly and its lifespan could be cut very short.

On the other hand, that same fiber might work wonderfully in a bedroom, where traffic is minimal and that feathery softness is ideal. The important thing in matching fiber type with specific use is that you’ll get the longest possible lifespan, while maintaining that beautiful look for as long as possible.

Still focusing on the fiber of your flooring, you will also want to consider what type of stain protection you need or want. For instance, if you have pets that are indoors more often than out, you can purchase flooring with stain and odor protection built right in. If you have chemical sensitivities, Wool carpet is for you. Wool is an all natural fiber that lasts forever, and even inherently includes fire resistance.
