4 Reasons to Choose Carpet

Are you deciding between hardwood and carpet in Naperville?  Let us guide you through a few of the reasons why carpet might be the right choice for you.  Wall-to-wall carpeting, was at one time decorating gold, but has been demoted to bronze in recent years by the admiration of hardwood flooring. Nonetheless, carpet can be a cozy, inexpensive, and eye-catching floor covering option.

1. With cooler weather approaching, most of us will begin to spend more time indoors. Carpeting creates a warm and cozy surface that kids and pets alike will love. Carpet’s insulating power may permit you to reduce your heating bills in the cooler months. 
2. In a hectic, active household, carpeting acts as a sound buffer. This is a benefit for multistory homes, families with children or pets, or those that just want a bit of peace and quiet. 
3. Carpeting is an inexpensive flooring solution, priced lower than most other materials. Although installation costs slightly more for carpet than for hardwood, the overall cost of carpet totals approximately half that of wood. 
4. Disregard the boring beige tones of the past. Today, colors are the new beige. These complement most furniture and accessories, and upbeat neutral is the ideal palette if you are planning to put your home on the market in the near future. Fashionable textures are correspondingly diverse. They may be smooth (Saxony), lightly textured (textured Saxony) or nubby (loop pile). Some of the most interesting offerings have textured patterns incorporated into the weave.
