What Type of Carpet Is Best for My Home?

Selecting the best carpet for your home depends on factors such as traffic levels, desired comfort, and aesthetic preferences. Plush carpets are perfect for bedrooms and living rooms, offering a soft and luxurious feel underfoot. Berber carpets, known for their durability and stain resistance, are great for high-traffic areas like hallways and stairs. If you have pets or children, consider a pet-friendly or stain-resistant carpet to ensure longevity and easy maintenance.

Preparing for Your Carpet Installation

Before your carpet installation, it is essential to prepare your space to ensure a smooth and successful process. Remove all furniture and personal items from the room to enable the installers to work efficiently. Clear the pathways for easy access and make sure the subfloor is clean, dry, and level. Plan for proper ventilation during installation to allow the carpet to acclimate to the room's temperature and humidity.
