Carpet has become the standard floor covering for most rooms. Almost every home has carpet in at least a few rooms. Carpets are warmer and more comfortable than tile and stone floors. Carpeting can make a room feel cozy and warm. Carpet also adds color and texture, provides soundproofing, insulates cold floors and offers underfoot comfort. Carpeting is favored in bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways. But never use carpet in bathrooms, kitchen, laundry rooms, or mechanical rooms because carpeting in these areas inevitably becomes damp, inviting mold and bacterial infestation.
When shopping for carpeting, there are a number of factors to consider, including fiber content, type of pile, and durability. To install carpet in your home you can do it yourself or hire someone. If done well, new carpeting can make a house, or at least certain rooms in a house, look fantastic. If you cannot do it yourself, hire professional installer.
