Ask yourself these important carpet questions
Before getting started on your carpet-shopping spree, there are a few important things you'll need to be sure of, right up front. Knowing the answers to these questions, which your flooring professional will be asking you anyway, will hasten the process and make your carpet shopping experience go a lot more smoothly.
First, what room or rooms of your home are you planning to carpet? For each one, you'll want to have an idea of what type of color or design would best suit that room. It's easy to find a carpet to match your existing décor. Will the area you are carpeting be low traffic or high traffic? This is one of the most important questions you'll need to answer. Some carpet fibers are great for high traffic areas, and are created for just such an atmosphere. But you would never want to place a carpet that's rated for low traffic in a room where high traffic will be the norm. It will wear out much more quickly and look older much faster. Will there be any moisture, humidity or dampness in the room you plan to carpet? This would be the case in rooms such as the kitchen or basement. Most people think that these two rooms are strictly off limits when it comes to carpet, but that's not entirely true. While you wouldn't want to place wool carpet in either of these rooms, since cool carpet holds about ten times its own weight in water and moisture, you can use an Olefin carpet with no problems at all.
