What’s the best protection for carpet flooring?

Carpeting is plush flooring that offers stunning visual appeal wherever it's installed. But what's the best way to protect these floors once they're in place?

This product has options for excellent performance, but there's more to learn as you shop for your remodel. Here are some facts that could help you make all the right choices.

Choosing the perfect fiber

Protecting your floors starts at the fiber level, as each performs differently in each household. For example, nylon works well in high traffic because it resists crushing and matting with increased elasticity.

Polyester is a great floor covering choice in low-traffic areas for outstanding stain resistance. While it’s not as elastic as nylon, it’s far better at keeping permanent stains at bay.

Regular cleaning and maintenance

Proper maintenance, including vacuuming and commercial cleaning, can help these floors reach their intended lifespan. You'll need to clean more often in active homes and households with pets or children, while low-traffic areas need less cleaning.

Area rugs and runners

You can also add a few runners or rugs to areas where traffic is highest. These can include children’s rooms, hallways, and playrooms.

Area rugs over carpeting are easy to clean and trap a significant percentage of tracked-in messes. You can even move them around from space to space as necessary.
