Soft, warm, and endlessly inviting, carpet has long been a beloved flooring choice, and it's easy to see why. Today's carpet options are more versatile than ever, offering something truly special for every home and budget. Here at Columbia Rug Carpet One Floor & Home in Peoria, Illinois, we have a genuine passion for what modern carpet brings to a space — from its stunning range of colors and patterns to its remarkable ability to instantly transform a room into somewhere you actually want to be.
One of the most important factors when buying carpet is the fiber type, which affects performance, softness, style, and appearance. Beyond color, you'll want a carpet built to handle your lifestyle. Common carpet fibers include nylon, polyester, triexta, olefin/polypropylene, and wool.
Most homeowners like to install carpet in spaces of their homes where they relax. You can install carpet in your bedroom, living room, home office, and children’s playrooms. Carpets built to be durable, such as stain-resistant options, are perfect for high-traffic areas in your home, like hallways. A carpet is much warmer than hardwood flooring, making it perfect for warming your feet on chilly winter mornings. As your local carpet experts, we recommend avoiding carpet installation in areas such as entryways, kitchens, and bathrooms due to the risk of moisture damage.
Being ready to install your new carpet can make the process faster and more efficient. Our first piece of advice is to opt for professional installers with years of experience. We hire outside contractors to do our installations, and trust them to do the job right for you. Below are some of the basic installation things you need to know:
Yes, the proper carpet padding can dramatically extend the life of your carpet by guarding against spills and adding density. Think of carpet cushion as the protective layer for your carpet: it lets you worry a little less about your floor and live a little more.
First, you’ll need to choose a cushion material. You can choose from rubber, foam, fiber, and different thicknesses and densities. Opt for a thin, dense cushion to absorb the impact if you’re installing in a room with high-volume foot traffic.
