In the past and even today, carpet is very popular with home owners all
across the U.S. Carpet is the most
practical, fashionable, and versatile choice of flooring out there, as it also
accounts for more than half of all flooring purchases that are made each and every year. The
fact is, carpet has outsold every other type of flooring for more than 60
years.
Carpet offers you several advantages that other flooring options can't
compete with. Below, you will find many
of the features that carpet will add to your home.
Warmth
Carpet is the best choice you can make for your bedroom, family room,
and other areas where you need warmth underfoot.
Insulation
Both carpet and carpet padding will provide an extra layer of much
needed insulation between the floors of your home. Depending on the density and weight of the
carpet, it contributes to the R-value of your home, which adds to the energy
efficiency
as well.
Safety
Carpet offers a slip resistant surface that will prevent accidents along
with a natural cushion in the event of someone falling. For young children and the elderly, this is
very important.
Reduction in sound
Carpet will also reduce noise better than any other type of
flooring. Carpet works to dampen noise
in three ways:
1. Reduces surface noise from foot traffic
2. Absorbs airborne sound
3. Blocks transmission of sound
These qualities are valuable in apartments as well as semi-detached
homes.
Surface
Adding carpet to a room can also disguise any existing damage to the
floor and also hide any other problems such as warped floors. The thicker density the carpet is, the more
problems it will be able to hide.
Easy to care for
The carpets of today are more stain resistant than they have ever been
in the past, which makes cleaning even the worst possible spills easier than
ever. No matter type of spill it may be,there
is always a way to clean it up.
Clean air
Research has proven that carpet can indeed improve the quality of air by
trapping allergy causing dust and allergens if it is properly cleaned and maintained.
Variety of use
Carpets aren't only for floors anymore, which is a really great
thing. You can easily add carpet to
steps, stairs, walls, posts, and other non level surfaces, without having to
worry about it slipping, lifting, or buckling.
Flexibility
Carpet is the primary foundation in almost any room. Because it is available in a variety of different
colors and textures, it helps to create an unlimited number of possibilities
for decorating. From the neutral tones
to rich solids, carpet is the first step you can take to make your home look
better than ever.
Low cost
Carpet doesn't cost a lot of money, as it offers an economical alternative
to the other types of expensive flooring.
Even with professional installation, you won't pay near as much as you would
for hard surfaces. Unlike hard surfaces,
carpet can keep you comfortable if you decideto lay down on it.
Life span
The carpets of today are very durable and can outlast most other types
of flooring available on the market. All
you have to do is select a type of carpet that has a life span of 5 – 30 years
or more, which is very common now days.
Warranty
With most manufacturers, you can get great warranties with your carpet
purchase. This way, you'll be protected
when you install your new carpet. Once
installed, all you have to do is enjoy it - as the warranty will ensure that
you are very well protected.
