The reason why carpets have been the main choice for the
discerning homeowner for years is probably because it offers
so many benefits. For example, it is relatively inexpensive,
comfortable, generally easier to install and replace than most
flooring materials. It also offers more fashion options in
colours and textures than any other floor covering on the
market.
In terms of aesthetics and pure visual appeal, few design
elements can compete with carpeting. It can be soft and
neutral, creating a casual, understate presence, or it can be
lively and strong, becoming the focal point of any area.
You can always find a carpet that will complement any interior
setting and give years of appeal and performance. The reason
is because it blends beautifully with all decorating styles
and can make a strong visual statement of its own or it can be
used to emphasise other features of the overall design scheme.
For example, by blending with the wall colours an expanse of
carpeting can make a small room seem larger. Conversely, by
choosing a dark colour or large pattern, carpeting can make a
large, sterile room seem cosy and inviting.
The advantages of carpeting are legion; in residential
applications it adds warmth, is soft underfoot and easier on
the knees of children. It comes in a wide variety of colours,

patterns, tones and hue which makes it easy to decorate with
and offers many styles.
Carpeting is an effective sound insulator because the soft
fibres absorb and minimise [30 w.p.m.] the noise transfer
between the rooms or floors of a house. It is well recognised
that the noise levels in a home are significantly reduced by
the introduction of carpeting.
In addition, carpeting can be an important component of any
energy plan in [35 w.p.m] this day and age. The carpet fibres
and the spaces between them hold warmth and insulate against
extreme heat or cold. This means that during the colder times
of the year, carpeting retains warm air longer and in warmer
weather it insulates against [40 w.p.m.] intense heat,
creating a direct impact on energy bills. Used in conjunction
with floor heating, you have the perfect cosy combination to
combat cold winter days and nights.
