Question 1

How do I choose the right carpet style for my home?

Accepted Answer

Carpet comes in a wide range of colors, patterns, and materials-Frieze, Loop, Plush, or Sculptured. Which color matches your décor? What’s best for pets or high-traffic areas? At, Floorcrafters we make it easy. Our Design Associates bring the showroom to you, helping you choose the perfect style, texture, and color for your home. Whether you need durable, stain-resistant carpet or a plush, cozy feel, we’ll find the best fit for your lifestyle and budget.

Question 2

Is there a cost for a carpet design consultation?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely NOT! Design Consultations are completely free and whether you choose to work with Floorcrafters or not, there is no obligation or high-pressure sales tactics.

Question 3

Which type of carpet material would you most recommend?

Accepted Answer

For many reasons, Polyester has several advantages. Polyester carpeting is inherently stain resistant, and it definitely outperforms both nylon and wool in this regard. Additionally, polyester carpeting is very soft and significantly less expensive than either nylon or wool. Where previous generations of polyester carpets had poor resiliency and tended to matte or crush in heavy traffic areas, new technology has improved the performance of polyester carpet substantially, and we work with top manufacturers, who have options that fit the needs of any household.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Carpeting involves more than one might think! The area, pad, prep, the carpet itself… there is a lot to consider when pricing a carpeting project.

Next, we review all the details, take measurements, and make sure your comprehensive price includes every detail. Be sure to ask about our free furniture moving, lifetime installation warranty, and commercial overstock program!

Question 6

What is the installation timeline for my carpet?

Question 7

Are there any specific carpet care and maintenance instructions I should follow?

Accepted Answer

Carpet manufacturers have different instructions for their products and recommendations will generally prolong the longevity of your carpet. To keep carpet warranties in effect, manufacturers require professional cleaning at least once every 12 months from the date of installation. That said, the materials and type of carpet you choose for a particular room in your home is extremely important.
