Choosing the right carpet

Choosing carpet over other types of floors has several benefits. Carpets don’t scratch or squeak, they’re warm under foot to provide a comfortable indoor environment and they absorb sound, creating a quiet ambience compared to other types of flooring.

Carpet comes in a range of fibres like wool, nylon, triexta, solution dyed nylon, polypropylene and polyester. Each fibre gives a different finish depending on the weave. Choose from cut pile, loop pile or a combination of these two styles. Which one is right for you will depend on how you’d like your carpet to look and feel. There are some areas in the home where carpet seems like the obvious choice. The bedroom is an area you’ll want to feel relaxed and comfortable in and soft flooring will make the room warmer in appearance and temperature.
