Frequently Asked Questions About Carpet

Polyester carpet fiber offers style, value, and even sustainability, along with durability, stain protection, and fade resistance at a valuable price point. Triexta fiber is an incredibly stain-resistant, eco-friendly, and durable carpet fiber. Polypropylene fiber, better known as olefin, boasts outstanding moisture and stain resistance, making it an excellent fit for indoor-outdoor carpet use and entranceways. SmatStrand boasts increased durability and the ability to handle pet accidents. And wool is an affordable and eco-friendly option.

When you see the terms “loop pile” and “cut pile” when shopping for carpet, this refers to the carpet’s construction and how carpet fibers are attached to the carpet backing. Loop pile construction features fibers that are bent into small loops, which creates durable, stain-resistant, low-profile carpets. Level-cut loop carpets are excellent for resisting foot traffic and make a great fit for entryways, hallways, and stairs.

We always recommend hiring licensed installation professionals to handle your carpet installation. Carpet can be glued down directly to a concrete floor or glued to a carpet pad that is glued directly to the floor using a tack strip. Stretch-in carpet installation is a popular, efficient method for residential homes. This process involves strips of wood with protruding angled nails secured to the edges of a room, attaching the carpet to the nails, and then stretching the carpet tight across the room.

The best general carpet care starts with investing in the right vacuum cleaner that matches your carpet type and vacuuming your carpet weekly to remove damaging particles. If you have pets in the home, you should trim pet nails and claws to avoid snagging the carpet and creating scratches, brush your cats and dogs regularly to reduce pet dander, and make sure to complete house-training before your pets can spend time on the carpet.
