Reasons To Use Carpet Tile

By Tim Vanhoy


When you decide it is time to remodel your home or office, you will explore many flooring choices. You are going to look at ways you can reduce the overall cost of the project, without adding to your monthly maintenance.

Chances are you may not even be aware that carpet tile is an option. In fact, there is a good chance that roughly only a third of the people you talk to will have any idea of what it is. Part of the problem is that there are myths that surround carpet tile. An example is that it is very difficult to install carpet tile and it cost an astronomical cost for its upkeep and maintenance. That isn't true though. In fact, it is one of the best flooring materials that can be found. Everyone should be considering it, when trying to add new life into living spaces. Not only do you end up with a better look, but it will also provide additional advantages. Some of those include:

- Carpet tiles capture the dust better than the average full sized carpet.

-You can find it in the same patterns, textures and even colors that traditional carpet comes in. Once it is placed, no one will know the difference and it comes at a better value.

-These carpet tiles provide more comfort for walking in places like nursing homes and office buildings. This is due to the fact that they have better cushioning than traditional carpeting.

-Carpet tiles are suitable for homes where there is in-floor heating.

-There is a lower risk of slipping on these carpet tiles, when compared to vinyl floors and other forms of carpeting.

-More versatility is found in this type of flooring. Not only can you choose from several styles and colors, but you can also get the feeling you are looking for in a room.

-Carpet tiles are easy to replace and you will save money. A lot of tiles won't need to be removed, the entire floor does not need to be redone. Replace only the tiles that are damaged or too heavily soiled to clean well.

-Another benefit of carpet tiles is that the sub floor stays in good repair. Because the adhesive is all that will be required, not much else will be required.

Older homes may have unique shapes that make traditional carpeting difficult. In some cases, cuts may need to be made that tears up a large section of carpet and that can take time. With the carpet tile, installation is fast, easy and effective at a lower overall cost for the installation.

There is far less dust using carpet tile and far less time setting up the flooring. Carpet tiles can be used in floors and in homes that are not entirely square. They are easy to cut and easy to piece into small areas which may not be entirely square.

If you are looking for a simple and cost effective way to create a beautiful home, office or other environment, consider carpet tile. Chances are, you won't find a better solution and in a short period of time, you can see your entire space suddenly transform.

Take a moment to look over all the unique advantages that this type of flooring has to offer. Chances are, you are going to find that it is going to be one of the best purchases that you will make this year.
