All About Area Rugs
Area rugs are an excellent flooring addition and serve many purposes. These unique floor pieces can range from a moderate price range to very expensive, depending on the type and quality of rug you are searching for. At Carpet to Go, we can custom make your area rug with the comfort and style that fits your home.
Area rugs are usually made out of wool, silk, cotton, olefin (also called polypropylene), or nylon materials.
What Type Of Flooring Can Area Rugs Be Used On?
With the ability to easily roll up and clean, area rugs come the ability to place these rugs over any type of flooring. Carpeted floors (yes, even carpeted floors!), tile floors, hardwood or laminate may have area rugs. You name it, and the rug can go over it.
What Are Some Of The Benefits Of Area Rugs?
These rugs, while simple in nature, can have a powerful effect on the atmosphere and mood of your rooms and come with numerous additional advantages. One of the key elements that set area rugs apart is their ability to be moved between rooms, making it easy to switch up or change a room’s decor in a matter of minutes. Not only that, but the colors and patterns existing in the rug can add a beautiful color addition to the room, and serve as a centerpiece of your room decor. You can even change rugs in order to match the season! Other benefits to area rugs are:
- Area rugs are also a great way to add warmth and softness to an otherwise hard or cold floor.
- They are comfortable to walk on
- They can last a very long time.
- Area rugs absorb sound, helping rooms that feel empty or have an echo feel more full and welcoming.
