    Carpet adds beauty and style to any room. Today, there are thousands of colors to consider. It can be a neutral foundation or a focal point with bold colors and dramatic patterns and textures. Carpet is available in a wide array of colors and textures to suit all decors. 
     
    Carpet is warm and soft underfoot, and creates a quite indoor environment as it absorbs sound and reduces household noises produced by footsteps, items dropped on the floor and chair legs. Carpet also provides a comfortable thermal indoor environment due to it's insulating properties. Contrary to popular belief, carpet actually traps dust and prevents it from becoming airborne, allowing you to breath easier.
     
    So where do you start in choosing the right carpet for your home? Let’s start with construction and texture because that affects how the carpet will appear and wear. Texture refers to the surface appearance of the carpet. Texture is created by the size of the yarns, the twist of the yarns, and the surface structure of the finished carpet. Some textures create patterns. Well constructed carpet is important for durability. In fact, construction has as much or more influence on performance than the fibers or other materials that make up the carpet.
     
    Color is one of the most important things to consider when choosing carpet. It can change the look and feel of a room and bring your floor to life. As well as the visual appeal, the color of your carpet affects the appearance of the size of a room.  Dark colors can make a room appear smaller whereas lighter carpets open a room up and make it appear larger. However, darker multi-colored and patterned carpets are especially effective at hiding soiling compared to solid shade lighter carpets. Darker colors are popular with families with children or pets for that reason. The mood of a room can very often determine color. A room that is restful and soothing often uses soft, cool neutral colors, while a room that is more dramatic and intimate may need stronger colors. Warmer, contrasting and brighter colors adds to the atmosphere of a room where all the activity of the day takes place.
     
    The lighting environment between our store and your home may vary. Therefore we recommend that you take a sample of carpet and view it in your home for color before making your final purchasing decision. Samples can be ordered at no charge so that you can take them home and through them down on your floor in your lighting.

  • Types of Carpet

    LEVEL LOOP PILE
    Many carpets are constructed with a loop pile surface. Loop carpets are marked by a continuous uncut surface that resists crushing and matting. This style wears well and is suited for casual rooms with lots of traffic and activity.

    CUT PILE
    Cut pile is probably the most popular construction. It’s durable because of the type of fiber used, the density of the tufts and the amount of twist in the yarn. Highly twisted yarn will hold its shape longer which makes it a smart choice for higher traffic areas.

    SAXONY
    Saxony is similar to velvet but it’s not quite as smooth. It has a soft texture that’s created by twisting fibers then uses heat to straighten the yarn. This style will show foot and vacuum marks. This is a good choice where you want a formal look in a room that has less traffic.

    FRIEZE' (pronounced free-zay)
    Friezé has tightly twisted yarns giving it a contemporary look while making it a smart choice for any high traffic area of your home. This style is less likely to show vacuum marks or footprints than other cut pile styles.

    CUT AND LOOP
    Cut and loop carpet combines cut and uncut loops to create a pattern available in solid colors and multi colors. There are infinite numbers of unique geometric and overall patterns from which to choose. This style is suited for both formal and contemporary looks.

    BERBER
    Berbers are usually made in a loop construction from thick bulky yarns. The term Berber actually refers to the flecks of color against a pale background. Berbers are available in not only loop style, but in other styles like shag, cables, and friezés.
