FAQ

Regular care and maintenance is important for the longevity of your new flooring. Frequent cleaning removes dirt and debris that can leave your carpet looking dull and can wear down your carpet fibers. When spills happen, it is important to act quickly to prevent stains or damage. Do not use any products on your carpet without consulting your manufacturer. Learn more about how to keep your carpet looking and performing great for many years.

Cleaning a carpet can be done in several ways, depending on the type of carpet and the level of dirt and stains. Here is a general guide on how to clean a carpet:

Vacuum the carpet thoroughly regularly to remove any loose dirt and debris.
Blot any liquid spills with a clean cloth. Then apply your manufacturer-approved cleaning solution.
Test the cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area of the carpet to ensure that it does not cause discoloration or damage.
Use mats at entry ways to reduce the amount of dirt and debris tracked onto your carpet, which can leave your fibers looking dull.
Invest in a professional cleaning once a year to restore your carpet’s sheen.

It’s important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning your carpet, as some carpets may require specialized cleaning methods or solutions. Additionally, be sure to test any cleaning solution on a small area of the carpet first to avoid damaging the entire carpet.

Proper maintenance of a carpet can help extend its lifespan and keep it looking clean and fresh. Here are some tips for maintaining your carpet:

Remove shoes before entering the house to prevent dirt and debris from being tracked onto the carpet.
Rotate your furniture regularly to prevent heavy wear and tear on specific areas of the carpet.
Use furniture pads under to avoid indentations or crushing of the carpet fibers.
Trim your pet’s nails regularly to avoid snags or pulls on your carpet.

By following these tips, you can help maintain your carpet and keep it looking great for years to come.

Available at a medium price point, nylon carpet will provide reliable performance, remain easy to clean and resilient, handle heavy traffic, resist stains, and remain attractive. Perfect for newer families looking for quick replacement, polyester carpet fiber offers style, value, and even sustainability, along with durability, stain protection, and fade resistance at a valuable price point. Triexta fiber presents an incredibly stain-resistant, eco-friendly, and durable carpet fiber, that’s an exceptional fit for active households that require low-maintenance carpet. Polypropylene fiber, better known as olefin, boasts outstanding moisture and stain resistance which makes it a great fit for indoor-outdoor carpet use and entranceways.

When you see the terms “loop pile” and “cut pile” when shopping for carpet, this refers to the carpet’s construction and how carpet fibers are attached to the carpet backing. Loop pile construction features fibers that are bent into small loops, which creates durable, stain-resistant, low-profile carpets. Level loop carpets are excellent for resisting foot traffic and make a great fit for entryways, hallways, and stairs. Multi-level loop piles vary in height to create patterned texture that adds visual interest while aiding in the easy cleanup of dirt, mud, pet accidents, and spills.

Cut pile carpets feature yarn tips that are cut so there aren’t any loops, resulting in a carpet pile that is softer, thicker, and more fashion-forward. Friezes, Saxony carpets, shag carpets, and cable carpets are all cut pile varieties that provide comfort, style, and extra softness. Although these carpets are not a great fit for high activity and foot traffic, a cut-and-loop carpet construction features cut pile and loop pile fibers to bring all-around performance with softness, texture, and medium to moderate durability

We always recommend hiring licensed installation professionals to handle your carpet installation. Carpet can be glued down directly to a concrete floor, or glued to a carpet pad that is glued directly to the floor. Stretch-in carpet installation is a popular, efficient method for residential homes and this process involves strips of wood with protruding angled nails secured to the edges of a room, attaching the carpet to the nails, and then stretching the carpet tight across the room. Your carpet installers can recommend the method that will produce the best long-term performance.

The best general carpet care starts with investing in the right vacuum cleaner that matches your carpet type and vacuuming your carpet weekly to remove damaging particles. If you have pets in the home, you should trim pet nails and claws to avoid snagging the carpet and creating scratches, brush your cats and dogs regularly to reduce pet dander, and make sure to complete house-training before your pets can spend time on carpet.

Always treat spills as quickly as possible with warm water to prevent permanent stains from forming and moisture absorption. Remove any solid material with a spoon, starting from the outside of the spill and working in. Blot the liquid stain with paper towels or a white towel, using warm water to remove the stain. If warm water does not remove the stain, always consult your manufacturer’s guidelines to find a gentle approved cleaner that will maintain your carpet warranty.

When selecting carpet for kids, invest in a carpet fiber that features excellent stain resistance and is on the value end of the price scale. SmartStrand and nylon carpet offer reliable performance, resiliency, low maintenance, and will help resist stains. For families with tight budgets, polyester carpet provides style, durability, and stain protection at an affordable price. A low-profile construction such as a level loop pile carpet and multi-level loop pile carpet will offer greater durability, stain, and wear resistance, and be easier to maintain when it comes to cleaning up spills. A textured or patterned carpet will add visual interest to a kid’s bedroom and disguise wear better over time. For more color protection, explore blended and heathered styles that show less wear and stains over time.

A home with pets will experience many unexpected spills, tracked-in dirt, and assorted messes. SmartStrand and nylon carpet are a smart choice for a home with pets since these fibers provide resiliency against heavy playtime, as well as stain resistance, durability, and ease of maintenance. Triexta fiber brings superior stain protection and enhanced durability for top performance in a home with pets.

The life of your carpet will depend on the carpet type, where the carpet is within the home, and the household activity level. Generally, carpet will last between 10-15 years against normal wear-and-tear and with proper care. Installing a high-quality carpet cushion will help reduce the adverse effects of foot traffic and enhance your carpet performance. You can preserve the life of your carpet with regular vacuuming, professional cleanings every 12-18 months, and by properly following your manufacturer’s care guidelines.
