About Carpets & Carpeting
There’s a lot to know about carpets & carpeting. Carpet is one of the most widely used flooring materials and can be used in conjunction with other flooring options.
Whether it’s your versatile family room, luxurious sitting room, or peaceful nursery, carpeting provides the options you are looking for to make your decorating dreams a reality.

Did you know that carpet can be environmentally friendly? PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is a popular carpet fiber that is made from recycled plastic bottles. That sounds well and good, but most homeowners care more about the performance of a carpet than whether or not it’s made from recycled material.
The good news? PET carpet fiber is known for its exceptional softness, natural and permanent stain resistance (including pet urine stains), improved strength and better abrasion resistance, and excellent appearance retention and long-term wear.
In a national survey of real estate agents, 90 percent said that houses with wood flooring sell faster and for higher prices than houses without wood floors.

For a superior stain-resistant carpet check out SmartStrand with DuPont Sorona®. SmartStrand doesn’t stain. It is easy to clean with just a little water for even the most stubborn stains including wine, mustard and even bleach.
Does your home include active kids or playful pets? The durability of wear-dated carpet fiber using Scotchgard Advance Repel Technology might be the right answer for you. Carpets with the wear-dated seal retain the original beauty much longer and alleviate many of the hassles of carpet care.
Scotchgard has always been known and trusted for its ability to repel liquid spills and resist soiling. Now it’s been improved to offer even better protection. Exclusive to Mohawk Industries, Scotchgard Protector Advanced Repel Technology provides even more repellency to liquids and enhanced soil protection.
More consumers know and trust the STAINMASTER® carpet brand than any other carpet brand. Some of the most stylish and luxurious carpets available, on the market today, carry the STAINMASTER® brand name. These beautiful carpets are able to maintain their appearance over time because of the way they are made.

Don’t forget about the cushion! Carpet cushion helps your carpet feel richer and more luxurious. There are many different cushions from which to choose from the standard 6lb. to 8lb. with moisture blocking and odor absorbing technology. These cushions are available with a plastic shield for pet protection.
Aside from making your carpet feel richer and more luxurious, carpet cushion can also add a longer lifetime to your carpet and save you money. That’s not all, though. There are a number of other benefits of carpet cushion, like:
Carpet cushion significantly improves a carpet’s sound absorption. Adding acoustic absorption helps keep a quieter home.
Carpet cushion adds a layer of thermal insulation, keeping your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
Carpet cushion can reduce your foot’s impact on the floor by one-half. That saves your carpet AND your foot wear.
Maintenance on a cushioned carpet is often less over its lifetime.
Carpets with separate cushion are often less costly to install than ones with cushion built in.

The best carpet fibers for busy Texas homes with kids or pets are PET, triexta/SmartStrand, and nylon - because they combine strong stain resistance with long-lasting performance in our humid climate.
PET delivers softness and built-in stain resistance, including protection against pet accidents and spills. Made from recycled bottles, PET lasts 10-15 years and handles Texas humidity well.
Triexta/SmartStrand pairs permanent stain protection with a silk-like feel. This fiber won't absorb liquids, making cleanup simple with muddy shoes or craft spills. Maintains appearance 12-15 years without matting.
Nylon springs back after heavy traffic and furniture impressions. While requiring stain treatment, quality nylon with Scotchgard can last 15+ years. Best choice for stairs and high-traffic areas.
Polyester fits light-use rooms like guest bedrooms where value matters. Expect 7-10 years in low-traffic areas.
Smart picks by room:
Nurseries and playrooms: PET for spill protection
Family rooms: Triexta for balanced performance
Stairs and hallways: Nylon for maximum durability
Pile guide: Choose frieze texture to hide pet hair and footprints, cut-pile for bedroom comfort, and patterned loop to camouflage dirt in entryways. Trusted brands include STAINMASTER, Mohawk SmartStrand, and Scotchgard Advanced Repel treatments.

Never skip on a quality cushion. Pad density and features impact comfort, noise control, and lifespan.
A 6 lb pad gives a softer feel for bedrooms and light traffic. An 8 lb pad supports busy areas and helps carpet keep its shape longer.
Moisture-barrier pads block spills from reaching the subfloor, while odor-absorbing options help with pets. Pet-protective films add a cleanable layer beneath the carpet.
Benefits show up right away:
Quieter rooms
Softer step
Better wear

Carpet pricing depends on fiber type, face weight, pad quality, stairs, pattern matching, and any demo or disposal. High-traffic zones deserve stronger fibers and a quality pad; guest rooms can use value lines to balance the budget.
Faith Floors & More measures each room, plans seams, and provides a line-item estimate with a clear schedule. You see where the dollars go before the project starts.
-
Vacuum high-use areas several times a week and place entry mats to trap grit. Treat spills right away with an approved cleaner. Schedule professional hot-water extraction based on traffic, often every 12 to 18 months. Keep indoor humidity balanced for freshness and faster drying after cleanings.
Use manufacturer-approved spot cleaners
Blot, do not rub
Replace worn pads under furniture sliders
Log cleaning dates to protect warranty coverage
-
PET carpet made from recycled bottles offers soft feel and strong stain resistance, while low-VOC adhesives and pads support healthier indoor air.
Carpet improves room acoustics and comfort, and regular cleaning removes dust from circulation, helping families breathe easier.

Your carpet might need some attention if you notice ripples, loose edges, delamination, persistent stains, and worn stair treads.
Stretching tightens ripples when backing remains sound. Patching solves small, localized damage. Full replacement makes sense for crushed pile, odors that return after cleaning, or heavy traffic lanes.
Typical lifespans: 7–10 years for polyester in busy homes, 10–15 for PET or triexta, and longer for quality nylon with a good pad.
