Buying tips for carpet
Carpet has always been a popular choice when flooring any room in the house. In fact, carpet is as fashionable as ever since it comes in so many different styles, colors, and fabrics, which only creates a larger price range so that it is affordable in any house. Carpet is also so prevalent because of its comfort level. It creates a visual and physical warmth to any room, and therefore it can act as a natural form of insulation during the winter months.
Don’t take the quality of your carpet pad lightly
The performance of many carpets will hinge on the performance of the pad. Spending a few extra dollars on cushion can mean extra years of performance for your carpet. Some carpet warranties also hinge on the grade of cushion you select. Carpet cushion affects the luxury feel underfoot, quietness, resilience, cleaning, insulation, and, ultimately, the life of your carpet. Crushing or flattening of your carpet fiber causes it to look ugly long before it’s useful wear life is over. Quality cushion will help resist this condition.
Read the labels
Generally speaking you can review the stain resistance, anti-static claims and wear warranties right on the back of the sample. You also will see the type of fiber: nylon, polyester, polypropylene, or triexta.
There is no substitute for a knowledgeable sales person
As you can see there are a wide variety of issues to resolve in buying the best carpet for your needs. The performance and quality characteristics of carpet vary more widely than that of other flooring materials and a knowledgeable sales person will help you match up your performance needs.
Choosing a carpet that works for you
When you're ready to find the perfect carpet for your home, be sure to match the fiber with your lifestyle. For instance, nylon and polyester are excellent options for highly traveled spaces and busy families. For the utmost protection, ask about SmartStrand products by Mohawk.
