If you have children or pets, your carpet is more likely to face spills, stains, and "accidents." In this case, you should look for a carpet with added stain resistance. While some treatments can be applied later, the most effective ones are integrated during the manufacturing process. Be sure to ask about our stain-resistant options when you visit us!

The type of carpet you choose should be based on where it will be installed. Different rooms have different needs.
For areas with a lot of foot traffic, like hallways, staircases, and living rooms, we recommend a closed-loop carpet style, such as a Berber loop.
Durability: The looped yarn is less likely to show wear and tear.
Resists Dirt: Closed loops are less likely to trap dirt and dust, making them easier to clean.
Organic Look: Berber carpets provide a unique, organic texture.
For spaces like bedrooms where comfort is a priority over durability, a plush pile or textured plush carpet is a great choice.
Plush carpets are soft and luxurious, perfect for walking on with bare feet.
The cut-pile construction creates a dense, velvety surface.
Plush carpets lend a bright and open feel to any room in the house.
Carpet is a great way to express your personal style. Whether you prefer a bold statement or a subtle backdrop, there’s a carpet for you.
The material of your carpet affects its cost, durability, and stain resistance. Here’s a quick overview of some common options.
The most popular synthetic fiber. It's highly durable, resilient, and stain-resistant, making it a great choice for busy households. Has become very popular for families.
Known for its luxurious softness and vibrant color options. It is also stain-resistant but not as durable as nylon, making it ideal for low to medium-traffic areas.
A natural fiber that is incredibly soft, durable, and fire-resistant. Wool is a premium option and offers a classic, timeless feel.
A synthetic fiber that is naturally stain-resistant and moisture-resistant. It's often used in looped carpets and is a budget-friendly option.
Professional installers know how to measure complex spaces like stairs and closets, minimizing waste.
They use specialized equipment, like power stretchers, to ensure your carpet is installed flat and smooth, preventing wrinkles and bumps.
They consider the carpet's grain and pattern to ensure a flawless finish.
