What to Consider when Choosing a Carpet for your Home

Selecting the right carpet depends on a variety of factors. Here are some of the most important items to consider as you work with one of our flooring sales people to choose carpeting for your home.

Location – Think about where the carpet is going. You might choose different styles and fibers for your main living areas than you would for hallways, stairs, or rooms that aren’t used a lot.

Lifestyle – Consider how much use the carpet will get. Does the room get a lot of use? Do you have small children who spill drinks and track in mud? Are you a pet owner? You’ll want to balance beauty with practicality.

Maintenance – Be realistic about how much time you’re willing to put into caring for your carpets and choose the best style accordingly.

Budget – At Hiller’s Flooring America, we always ask for a ballpark budget and then we find the right type of quality carpeting that will fit your budget.

Style – First, choose a color palette to set the kind of mood and tone that you want in the room. The color of your carpet can change the whole feel of a room. Also consider your personal design style and your preference for patterns and fibers, and our sales team will find the best options for you.

Types of Carpet Fibers

NYLON

Nylon is the most durable carpet fiber available. It is the carpet of choice for homes with pets and children and for those who entertain a lot. It’s also perfect for heavy traffic in hallways and stairs.

POLYESTER

Polyester is known for its luxurious look, feel, and wonderful selection of colors and styles. It’s a good value for homes with a normal amount of traffic, although less durable and stain resistant than nylon.

OLEFIN

Olefin offers good stain and moisture resistance, but scores below nylon and polyester for wearability. It can be a good choice in loop pile construction, although its colors and styles are limited.

WOOL

Favored for its natural beauty, wool has natural soil resistance quality but is not stain resistant. Wool looks good for a long time and is constructed well but may be too expensive for most people.

How to Care for Carpets

No matter the type of carpet you choose for your home, normal foot traffic and soiling will cause it to look dingy over time. Routine maintenance and cleaning are essential to keep your floors looking like new. In addition to regular vacuuming, it’s essential to hire a trained carpet care professional every 1 ½ to 2 years to rejuvenate the carpet’s fibers.
