Economical and Low Maintenance Carpet:

Selecting Berber carpet would be the choice for any home with kids and high foot traffic. Berber carpet offers homeowners many benefits including: 

  • Soft underfoot comfort
  • Long lasting durability
  • Spill and stain resistance
  • Great carpet option for staircases

Due to how Berber carpet is constructed, liquid tends to sit on the surface for easy and quick cleanup. Berber has the advantage of looking like wool carpeting and comes in many beautiful earth tones.

Frieze carpet is another good choice for a busy household, with the same benefits as Berber. But, unlike Berber’s looped technology, Frieze carpet falls into the “cut pile” class of carpeting; it has more texture.

Unlike other cut pile carpeting, Frieze is considered “trackless” carpeting because it hides foot traffic, giving off a clean and smooth appearance. This is due to the height of its fibers being short and smooth. A multi-colored frieze carpet will help hide soil and dirt intrusion well.

Both Berber and Frieze, if well maintained, have the ability to last between 15-20 years.

Luxurious and Inviting Carpet:

Want carpet that is soft and velvety underfoot? A high quality plush carpet is a perfect fit for you.

It is ideal for formal living spaces like bedrooms or living rooms. They are durable, elegant, and long-lasting. Because of the soft and delicate fibers in these styles of carpeting, they are not made for aggressive foot traffic.

Plush is considered the more elegant of their class and is highly desired by many homeowners. They come in an array of color options, making your choice easy when matching your home’s color and decor.

Does Carpet Have to Match?

Flooring does not have to match in every part of the house, but you also don’t want it to look sloppy or inconsistent.  Let The Carpet Guys help you choose the best carpet you’ll fall in love with every time you step into your home.

It isn’t uncommon for homeowners to choose one type of carpet for formal areas and another where most of their activities take place. This is also common with flooring. You can mix and match surfaces.
