The Pros and Cons of 5 Carpet Types


 
Home Improvement

Choosing the right carpet in Chandler, AZ can be a difficult task. There are lots of colors and designs to choose from, but most importantly, there are different types of carpet that you have to consider. As you weigh the pros and cons of each one, you can determine which of the following types are right for your home.

Nylon

Nylon carpet is the most common type used around the world. Nylon carpet is durable, abrasion resistant, soil resistant, and doesn't create static. You can also purchase it in continuous fiber lengths. One of the drawbacks to choosing nylon carpet is that it is not stain resistant. You need to be careful about the products that you use on your carpet, because they can end up dying your carpet. It's important to know how to care for the nylon carpet in order to keep it in great condition.  

Olefin

Olefin carpet is made from polypropylene plastic, and it is a common choice for commercial use. The material makes it resistant to chemicals, moisture, and mildew. It is easy to clean and maintain. It's also one of the most inexpensive options to purchase. It does, however, mat down with heavy traffic. Because it's made of plastic, it can also get damaged by heat. You need to keep heat away from the carpet and be careful about the friction on the carpet from moving furniture on it. You should also be wary about using oils on the carpet since they can stain it as well.

Wool

Wool is the luxurious option for your home. Although it's the most expensive choice, it's also the most comfortable on your feet. It has a great appearance, and it's environmentally friendly. The fibers are fire retardant and will maintain their height. Some of the disadvantages to choosing wool carpet is that it causes a static charge and retains moisture. It can also fray without proper maintenance. Wool can attract moths and other pests if you're not careful.

Polyester

Polyester is similar to wool in that it has a luxurious feel, but it's much cheaper. It has low absorbency and dries quickly. Polyester is also known for being stain resistant and fade resistant. Some of the cons of polyester include the fact that it mats with heavy traffic and requires frequent cleaning to keep it in great condition.

Acrylic

Similar to polyester carpet, acrylic is another material that can be a great alternative to wool carpet. It's much cheaper than wool, but it's resistant to fading, static, moisture, mildew, and the sun. Your carpet won't fade from the sun, so you can place it in areas of your home that get a lot of sunshine. One of the biggest disadvantages to acrylic carpet is that it isn't durable against high traffic. You can protect your acrylic carpet by putting rugs over it in high traffic areas of your home.

To determine which type of carpet in Chandler, AZ, is right for you, it's important to consider the pros and cons. Think about your household and the amount of traffic that your carpet will experience. If you have children or pets, you may want a type of carpet that can handle high traffic and won't stain easily. You should think about how much maintenance you want to put into your carpet to keep it in great condition. Think about the feel of the carpet and the comfort level that you want to achieve. And of course, you should think about your budget and what you can afford to spend. With all of these factors taken into consideration, you can choose the right type of carpet to install throughout your home.
