When the time comes to buy new carpeting, there are dozens of questions you will need to consider before selecting the carpet that will best fit your specific needs. First, what area of your home are you carpeting? Is it a high traffic area? Will my pets and children track a fair amount of dirt on the carpet? Will it possibly endure staining from food or drink?
These questions can help you decide on what characteristics you need most. Things like wearability, cleanability, stain resistance, high traffic, tread, etc. Answering these questions and considering these characteristics can assist you in selecting the carpet that will best fit your lifestyle and budget.
Once you know your need, you’ll want to consider the fiber. Carpets come in Wool, Nylon, Polyester, Olefin, Serona, etc. Each fiber will give you certain benefits, Wool for example is a natural product but is somewhat expensive. Nylon wears the best, cleans up easily and won’t matte quickly but is a bit more expensive than Polyester. Olefin, on the other hand, is even less expensive than Polyester but is usually better in a berber carpet.
