Tips on choosing the correct carpet

The perfect carpet is the one best suited to you and the needs of your home. You may already know exactly what you’re trying to achieve from a design perspective. But if not, here are a few tips and invaluable information to help you choose which pattern, style and texture would suit your room best.

There is no doubt that carpets offer homeowners more warmth, softness and are much quieter than any other floor coverings. Today’s carpet styles, colours and textures, blend well with any home décor and with a variety of other flooring products. From traditional to formal to country you will always be able to find a carpet that will suit and enrich any interior setting.

Decorating with carpet can be simple once you know the basics. Do you want your carpet to be a subtle background, or the centre of attention? If it’s a subtle background that you require then stay in the neutral colour families such as earth tones, beiges, greys etc. If you want your carpet to stand out or make a statement, then it may be a striking colour you require or a bold pattern.

Your furniture will also play an important part in your colour selection. If your furniture is dark then you will probably want to choose a light colour so that the furniture stands out. If you have light coloured furniture then you would reverse this process. Your life style is also an important factor. If you have children, pets, etc. you will probably want to stay clear of the lighter coloured carpets. With these sort of living conditions your carpet will most certainly be difficult to keep clean regardless of any warranties or stain inhibiting treatments.

Choosing your new carpet needs careful consideration as it needs to suit the different requirements of a room. practical and hardwearing, as well as beautiful and insure it will continue to look great for years to come.
