Quality carpet in Lake Grove, NY
With tens of thousands of styles and colors to choose from, carpet is one of the most versatile flooring solutions available. It's also unique in that it is warm, soft, and comforting—perfect for bedrooms and living rooms. Carpet remains unmatched by any hard-surface flooring.
Different types of carpet
Cut pile carpet is the most popular type, featuring sheared fiber strands with exposed ends. It’s available in a variety of lengths and thicknesses, so you’ll have a range of options regardless of what you’re specifically looking for. The twist of individual strands in cut pile is key when making a decision—tighter, heavier twist will add texture and durability to your carpet to help it stand up to matting and crushing.
Loop pile, on the other hand, features un-sheared loops of fiber that not only add extra durability but also create opportunities for pattern and texture. Tight, heavily twisted loops offer more resistance to matting and crushing. One potential issue to watch out for when choosing looped pile is pulled out loops, which, when snagged, can cause damage to your carpet.
Cut & Loop pile combines the previous two types of carpet. Having both sheared and un-sheared fibers leads to patterned surfaces and artistic use of texture. No single type of carpet is better than the others—your choice will largely come down to personal design preference.
