Benefits of Carpet

Nothing says comfort like a nice carpet flooring. When it comes time for your family to actually choose a carpet for your home, you will learn that there are a number of options. Our St. Paul, MN carpet store carries hundreds of different types of carpeting to fit every home. The challenge is knowing exactly what you want out of your carpet and we can help you out with making these decisions.

Carpet has so many great characteristics. It’s soft, inviting, warm and prevents sound from traveling throughout your home. It also saves energy and is an excellent value for the price. Carpet is also proven to trap dander and allergens which can easily be removed with the right vacuum when used regularly. So for a beautiful comfort under your feet, consider carpet.

Popular Carpeting Fibers

Carpet floors come in many different materials. The first thing to know before making a decision is what kind of carpet fiber will best fit your family’s needs.

Smart Strand: One of the most popular features of the SmartStrand fiber is that it has permanent stain protection built right into the fiber so it can never wear or clean off. Even the worst of stains such as coffee, mustard or even red wine will come right off with nothing more than hot water and a little detergent. We all know that the carpet warranty says it all, so consider this. Mohawk carpet is so confident in the stain resistance that for the first time they are offering a Limited Lifetime Stain Warranty for their SmartStrand carpet. If seeing is believing, take a look at this video to see just how seriously stain resistant this carpeting really is.

Aside from the superb stain resistance, this carpet is extremely soft to the touch too. Ask any carpet store owner what kind of carpet they would install in their home, and most will tell you that they would install SmartStrand carpet. Take a look

Nylon: Considering all of its characteristics, nylon carpet tends to be the most versatile of all fibers. It is durable, resilient and very receptive to dyeing for color versatility. In addition, many of the new nylon carpets are also exceptionally soft. Though it is not inherently stain resistant, most nylon carpets are treated with stain-resistant carpet treatments for protection against common houshold spills and stains

Olefin: Unlike all the other carpet fibers, Olefin will not absorb water and must be solution dyed. During the solution dyeing process the color is actually built right into the carpet fiber when it is formed. Therefore the color becomes a part of the carpet and cannot be removed from the fiber. The color will not fade, even when exposed to the elements such as sunlight, leach or other harsh chemicals. But, because this carpet fiber is not as resilient as others, this carpet fiber is normally used in loop pile type carpeting where there is less of a need for resilience in the fiber.

Polyester: Polyester

Carpeting Styles

Once you are comfortable with a carpet fiber, your next decision lies in the style or look of the carpet.

Twist: The twist is carpet trend that is back. It’s relaxed but elegant and nice to the touch.
Loop: The loop provides a modern take of handcrafted styling. It works best in active areas, where you don’t want to worry to much about your carpet.
Texture: The destinct look and feel of these cut yarns will give any room a great look. This style varies from deeply to lightly textured to create a fresh, easy-care surface.
Pattern: Almost an art form in itself. You will see cut and uncut loops that will form a unique design on your floor. This pattern will allow you to decorate with originality and flair.
