Choosing Between Different Types of Carpets in Jacksonville, FL

Carpets in Jacksonville, FL come in many varieties! Made in different ways from several types of fibers, your first trip to Affordable Carpet & Blinds, Inc. may feel overwhelming. With basic guidance, you can choose the best carpet for your room and budget.

Performance ratings

Carpets are given performance ratings, with the highest being 5.0. Gaining that rating means the carpet is most likely to maintain its appearance after going through testing. Most high-traffic areas need a rating of at least 4.0, while 2.5 and below needs to be reserved for low-use areas like bedrooms and formal rooms. Most options will rate between 2.5 to 4.0, and will work for most homes that do not have pets or small children.

Types and rooms

Bedrooms and formal spaces can normally get away with lower performance ratings. That is due to the fact that people are not walking through them all day. The exception to this rule is kids’ rooms, which have to endure toys, friends and food and drink spills. For those projects, you may want to consider a more durable option that also has stain protection.
