How to Know When It's Time to Replace Carpet Floors



6/12/23


Is your carpet feeling a bit past its prime? Here are some telltale signs that it might be time to jazz up your floor décor:

  • Wear and tear with flair: If your carpet is rocking visible stains, frayed edges, or has lost its pizzazz, it's probably begging for retirement. 
  • Odors that won't quit: Is there a funky smell lurking around your carpet? It might be harboring an unsavory cast of characters like mold, mildew, or bacteria. Time to bid adieu! 
  • Allergy ambush: If your carpet seems to be teaming up with your allergies or giving your respiratory system a hard time, it's a clear sign to consider swapping it out. 
  • Age ain't just a number: While some carpets age gracefully, most need a fresh start after 8-10 years. So, if yours has seen better days, it's time to roll out the new threads.
  • Fashion faux pas: Is your carpet stuck in a time warp or clashing with your home's style? It's time to embrace a carpet that knows how to keep up with the trends. 
  • Comfort matters: If your carpet feels like a rocky road rather than a cozy oasis, it's a clear sign that it's time to bring in some plush perfection.
