RESIDENTIAL CARPET

Types of Carpet

Each carpet style offers unique characteristics to consider in terms of softness, durability and look.  We serve Wewahitchka, Defuniak Springs, and Freeport with carpet rolls and carpet installation.

Textured

Dense with an uneven surface, textured carpet presents a casual look. It’s good at resisting stains and hiding footprints and vacuum marks. Ideal for active rooms.

Saxony

Also known as "plush," Saxony yarn is closely packed, giving a soft, even surface and smooth finish that works well in formal setting. Tends to show seams, footprints and vacuum marks.

Frieze

Short, twisted fibers curl in different directions, creating a loose, casual look. Ideal for high traffic and active areas.

Loop

Yarns curl in a loop that’s fastened to the carpet backing. This durable style is a good choice for high traffic areas where an informal look is desired.

Cable/Shag

Yarn is thicker and typically longer and very comfortable underfoot. Works well in low traffic areas like bedrooms. Not recommended for active areas where wear patterns can form.

Cut & Loop

Straight and looped yarns combine in interesting sculptured patterns with high shading values. Softer than loop but not as durable. Excellent for disguising wear and soil.

Best Rooms for Carpet

Carpeting can be installed in every room of the home, including basements, as long as there are no moisture issues. Many people install carpeting throughout their entire home while others prefer less active rooms like bedrooms, dining rooms or study areas. The choice is really a matter of personal taste. Active homes with pets and kids should look for carpeting that’s durable, stain resistant and easy to vacuum. Many carpet brands now come with technology that eliminates odor, stains and moisture absorption. The key to deciding where to install carpet is asking yourself what spaces get the most activity and how much are you willing to spend for enhanced features that keep carpet looking newer longer.  Shopping discount carpet is easy at Flooring Depot of Panama City.
