4 Things to Consider When Buying a New Carpet

4 Things to Consider When Buying a New Carpet

There are many obvious decisions to make when buying a new carpet, such as its color and texture. But there are other things to consider that you might not even be aware of. So, here’s a carpet buying guide with four important things to think about when shopping for your home.

List of Contents

1. Carpet Weight

A lot of people think the heavier the carpet is, the better its quality. And though it’s easy to make that mistake, there are other factors involved in the quality of a carpet, such as twist and density.

The weight of the carpet is not the main indicator of quality, but many salespeople find it easier to tell buyers that weight is everything, rather than go into detail and risk losing a sale. The professionals at Dublin Carpet will thoroughly outline the carpet weight, as well as its other factors.

2. Carpet Style

Most homeowners purchase a style based on the way it looks before considering what it is that they really need. There are many different styles including plush, textured, Saxony, and frieze to name a few, and they all require different kinds of care and maintenance. Remember that areas with a lot of foot traffic require a more durable carpet. There are too many options to cover in a quick carpet buying guide.

3. Carpet Padding

Without the right kind of padding and supportive cushioning, new carpets can suffer from wear and tear. It’s important to match the right padding with the right style of carpeting. Certain padding options can even help absorb some sound.

4. Factor in Your Lifestyle

If you have a large family, you likely need a carpet that can withstand stains, so opt for something kid-friendly and pet-proof. It’s important to note that some types of carpeting are easier to clean than others, so keep that in mind if it’s important to your active lifestyle.
