HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT CARPET FOR YOUR HOME

Updated: Aug 21, 2023

Choosing the right carpet for your home is not just about selecting a colour or texture that catches your eye. It requires careful consideration of various factors to ensure you make a well-informed decision. With so many types available it can be a difficult choice but that's where we are here to support you.

There are a couple of steps that we have listed below when it comes to choosing the right carpet for your home, so you can create a comfortable and stylish space that suits your lifestyle.

Step 1: Assess your needs and lifestyle before diving into all the different carpet options. Consider factors such as the amount of foot traffic in different areas of your home, the presence of pets or children and any specific requirements you may have regarding maintenance and durability. This initial assessment will help determine the carpet fiber, pile type, and level of stain resistance that will best suit your household.

Step 2: Exploring different carpet fibers, carpet fibers play a vital role in determining the carpet's appearance, durability, and performance. Common options are solution dyed nylon, wool, polyester & triexta. Each fiber has its unique characteristics, such as softness, stain resistance, and longevity.



Step 3: Then it's time to look at pile types, this refers to the density, height and construction of the carpet fibers. For example a cut pile provides a plush, soft feel, while a loop pile offers durability and hides footprints. Understanding the different pile types will help you narrow down your choices based on your desired look and practicality.
