Carpets are a very popular choice of flooring, particularly in areas of your home where comfort is important, like living spaces and bedrooms. Carpet designates a variety of flooring where a material is either woven or tufted to a backing cloth. Carpets are available in a huge variety of colours and patterns to accommodate any design of interior decor, as well as in many different types of fibre and piles. A number of the more widespread types of fibre materials include the man-made fibres polypropylene and nylon, and the natural fibres wool, sisal, or jute. These types of carpet are commonly available in short or deep pile and can be manufactured by using a variety of production methods, such as twist, Saxony, loop pile, Berber, cut and loop, or velvet. Carpets can come in patterned, plain or striped designs.
All of these diverse types of carpet are categorised according to their performance and how effectively they stand up to different levels of traffic. They are usually rated to be either medium domestic, meaning bedrooms or studies, heavy domestic, specifying living and dining rooms, and very heavy domestic, suitable for utility rooms or hallways. It is always recommended to fit carpet with a layer of underlay underneath, as this can enhance the appearance of the carpet, as well as increasing its life and offering better sound and thermal insulation.
