Types of carpet
Carpet styles differ, not just in look and feel but in function and features. Get to know each type and determine the best fit for your style and needs.
- Textured: Featuring a dense, uneven surface, textured carpeting lends itself to a casual look that hides footprints and vacuum tracks. It’s a great choice for high-traffic areas and active families.
- Saxony: Also called “plush” carpeting, Saxony features a soft, even surface with a smooth finish.
- Frieze: The long, twisting fibers of a frieze carpet lie in all different directions, providing deep texture for a luxurious feel. Frieze is extremely durable, with a loose, casual look ideal for high-traffic spaces.
- Cable or Shag: Long, thick yarns make shag carpeting very comfortable, ideal for low-traffic areas such as sitting rooms.
- Loop: The durable loops of yarn in loop carpeting can be constructed at even heights for a softer, smoother feel or uneven heights to create unique patterns.
- Cut & Loop: Sculpt soft, smooth and stylish patterns by combining straight yarns with looped ones, which has the added benefit of being able to hide wear and soil.
Best rooms for carpet
Carpet is a soft & comfortable floor covering option that provides cushion for walking, seating and play. This makes it ideal for family rooms and other gathering spaces. The warmth of carpet also makes it an attractive choice for bedrooms, offering comfort year-round.

Benefits of carpet
Carpet certainly offers the softest underfoot feel of any floor covering. You may even find yourself looking for excuses to walk barefoot in your home once you’ve experienced this lushness. It’s also a beautiful addition to nearly any room in your home, especially living rooms, dens, studies and bedrooms.
Carpet, as well as the under padding that goes with it, is like adding an extra layer of insulation to your home. This really changes things in the colder months, and helps to retain much of the heat your furnace produces. In turn, this means your furnace will not run as often and the end result is a savings on your overall energy bill.
To get the most out of your new flooring, and to help it reach its full potential in lifespan, you’ll want to make sure you choose the right fiber. Let your flooring specialist know about the particular traffic levels in your home, whether you have pets or children and if there are any special considerations that need to be taken into account. All of these can help us steer you in the right direction and help you find the best carpet available for your own unique needs.
