Carpets are a hugely popular preference of flooring, especially in rooms of your house where comfort is essential, like living spaces and bedrooms. Carpet defines a variety of flooring in which a material is either woven or tufted to a backing cloth. Carpets can be purchased in a huge variety of colours and patterns to suit any design of interior decor, as well as in a multitude of different kinds of fibre and piles. A number of the more prevalent types of fibre materials include the man-made fibres polypropylene and nylon, and the natural fibres wool, sisal, or jute. These kinds of carpet are commonly available in short or deep pile and can be manufactured by utilising a range of manufacturing methods, such as twist, Saxony, loop pile, Berber, cut and loop, or velvet. Carpets may appear in patterned, plain or striped designs.
All of these different kinds of carpet are rated according to their performance and how successfully they stand up to different levels of traffic. They are normally specified 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 will enhance the appearance of the carpet, as well as extending its life and offering better sound and thermal insulation.
