Carpet is beautiful: Especially Ours! The floor has often been called the fifth wall. It's no longer something to just cover, it's another surface to decorate. Unique Carpets, offers soft floors in a myriad of colors, textures, and a few patterns, which offer a beautiful alternative, or companion, to hard surface floors.
Carpet is quiet: Noise Reduction Coefficient. How's that for a big bunch of words? It's a figure reflecting the noise absorption properties of a given material. Yikes! That's still really boring. Bottom line is noise bounces off hard surfaces making those rooms loud and echo-y and sound is absorbed in carpet making those rooms significantly quieter.
Carpet is warm: What’s your temperature in the mornings? If you’re stepping on a hard surface, it's cold and if the floor is carpeted, it's not. And it's even better if its wool carpet; it's 50% more effective as an insulator than synthetics. Carpet is a wall-to-wall layer of insulation. Heat can't escape easily, reducing your bills while keeping your home warm and cozy.
Carpet is safe: Hard surface floors are smooth and slippery making it a lot easier to fall. And if you fall, they offer no cushion when you land. Carpet is just the opposite. Offering far better traction, slip and fall accidents are far less likely to occur (a major consideration on stairways) and if falls occur, carpets softness will limit the potential damage.
Carpet is healthy: Dust mites, allergens, pollen, and pollutants float freely in uncarpeted rooms, but they are actually drawn to wool carpets and held in place until they can be harmlessly vacuumed away.
Carpet is cost-effective: Even some of the most expensive carpets look like a value compared to hard surface floors. Plus, ongoing maintenance can be quite expensive with some hard surface floors. You'll never have to sand or re-seal carpet. Nor should you by-the-way.
