Carpet

Here are a few examples of what we carry

The folks at SMART Carpet & Flooring know that comfort plays a big part in choosing flooring for your home. However, choosing a carpet for your home can be difficult with so many choices. Carpet style makes a big difference. Look at the basics of carpeting construction. The carpet has a backing. Through the backing, the manufacturer loops fibers. Depending on the style of carpeting, the loops may stay continuous or the manufacturer may cut them. A cut loop gives a tufted soft appearance. A non-cut loop gives a textured surface that works well in high traffic areas. Some carpets combine both cut and non-cut loops. Some manufacturers use this mixture to create both textural and visual patterns.

Depending on the choice of fiber and cut, the carpet can come in a number of styles. Cut pile is the general term for any cut loop fiber. Those carpets that contain a perfectly even cut with solid color strands often goes by the name of Saxony. Textured carpet is another cut pile carpet, but it has a different twist and a permanent curl in the fibers. It lies down and does not show footprints nearly as much as Saxony does. A Frieze carpet has a much tighter loop that curls back on itself for a dense, durable surface. Many know loop carpeting as Berber.

Commercial carpeting is its own world. Most commercial applications of carpet require the ability to handle extremely high amounts of traffic. It needs to have built-in durability as well as stain resistance. Many commercial carpets come with patterns and textures standard. These carpets will last for years without showing a great deal of wear and tear. These carpets work well in restaurants, offices, and other public areas where people travel. It is a practical choice that brings comfort under foot for employees and guests alike. Our mobile carpet stores and flooring stores carry 1000s of styles and colors for you to choose from.

Durability is something that all carpets need. Innovations continue to make carpets more durable. Stain protection is a central component of most carpeting today. With treatments that vary from each manufacturer, the protection goes into the deepest fibers to help prevent stains from absorbing into the fibers. Durability also means the ability to take wear and tear as well. Many modern carpet fibers have the ability to spring back under traffic. Choice of carpet style is essential, but the carpet fibers of today can hold up wall? Smart Carpet and Flooring is here to help you choose the carpet you need in your home or office.
