Choosing A Carpet For Your Home

Sphere: Related Content
There are two basic kinds of rugs which are loosely termed as a carpet. There are the more expensive handmade rugs which are sold under Persian or other Middle Eastern name and the carpets which are sold per square foot and machine made. There are also some look alike Middle Eastern rugs and carpets which are machine made and considerably cheaper than the hand made ones. The carpet that falls under the term commercial is usually the one randomly used for office or bedroom floors. The commercial carpet often needs to be installed for it to lack lumps and bumps on the floors which can cause accidents.

Features Of A Commercial Carpet

There are many different features of a carpet that is made for commercial use. The thread count and the loops are some of the features that many people consider when buying a carpet for their bedroom floors. There are two basic kinds of commercial rugs and carpets that can be used for both home and office flooring. The looped and the cut are the basic designs of a machine made rug or floor cover. Both types of carpet are made from the typical nylon or other hardy material. When one mentions carpet for commercial use this means that the carpet can withstand abuse from regular traffic. This does not mean however that it can not be used for homes. Sometimes those of commercial standards are great for home use also because they are built and designed to last long and withstand everyday wear and tear.

The loop of a carpet is what can give it a fluffy appearance. The loops for cheaper rugs are smaller than the fluffier expensive ones that use more materials to create longer loops. Shorter looped carpets are sturdy enough to last years while the napped or cut style of rug is dense and sturdy also. Napped rugs are those with short dense materials that sometimes give the impression of felt. These are also very hardy and can last just as long as the short looped rugs.

Choosing the right kind of carpet for your home is easy if you prefer to use the commercial type of floor covering for this purpose. There are a few worries regarding using the commercial type of carpet and these usually last quite long so there is no worry about replacing it after just a couple of years. The preference of the homeowner is usually paramount in choosing the rug or carpet.
