Find the Right Fit
What to Look for in Carpet
Not all carpet is created equal—and the right choice depends on how you live and what you love. Here’s what we recommend keeping in mind when choosing your new carpet:
- Durability: Choose high-traffic carpet for busy areas like hallways, stairs, and family rooms.
- Fiber Type: Nylon offers strength and resilience, while polyester provides softness and stain resistance.
- Pile Height: Low-pile carpets are easy to clean, while plush styles add cozy comfort.
- Color & Texture: Light tones open up a room; patterned carpets help hide daily wear.
- Padding: Don’t overlook the underlay—great padding enhances comfort and carpet life.

Carpet Flooring FAQs
Why does my carpet look matted in high-traffic areas?
Over time, carpet fibers can become crushed by foot traffic, especially in hallways or near doorways. A durable, low-pile carpet or resilient nylon fiber can help prevent this.
How do I know if it's time to replace my carpet?
If you’re noticing stains that won’t come out, persistent odors, fraying edges, or general wear, it’s probably time to consider a replacement.
What type of carpet is best for homes with pets?
Look for stain-resistant carpets with low pile and tight weave. Certain carpets are designed to resist pet accidents and make cleanup easier.
Can I install carpet in a basement?
Yes—but make sure it’s appropriate for below-grade use. We’ll help you choose the right materials and pad to handle moisture and temperature changes.
What’s the best carpet color to hide dirt and wear?
Medium-tone, multi-color, or patterned carpets tend to hide dirt and foot traffic better than solid light or dark colors.
