How do I prepare a room for carpeting?

Firstly, you should prepare for carpeting by packing away any loose items in the room. It’s also beneficial to clear shelves and disconnect electronics. You might need to arrange for objects like artwork, aquariums or sculptures to be removed ahead of the carpet installation in Brits. In addition, put your valuables and keepsakes in a secure place. If the carpet is going to be installed in a bedroom, stripping the sheets off a bed is another good idea. It prevents dust from settling on your sheets while the job is getting done. You can also make sure the bottom row of clothing is removed from your closet.

How long does it take to install carpeting?

It depends on the size of the space and the condition of the floor before the installation. If an old carpet needs to be removed, the entire process will take longer. It will also take longer if the floor needs to be repaired. Generally, the installation will take a couple of hours. Set aside a day or two for each room. However, the carpeting installers in Brits should be able to tell you approximately how long the job will take.

Is it normal for a new carpet to shed?

Yes, new carpets shed all the time. It does not mean there is something wrong with your carpet. Balls of fluff and loose fibres can be found on the carpet, however, it’s easy to vacuum them away. Removing them will not affect the lovely appearance of your new carpet. Additionally, the carpet shedding should gradually decline over time. Nevertheless, this doesn’t happen to all carpets. It depends on the kind of material that the carpet is made of.

Can I paint a room before the carpet is installed?

Yes, it’s advisable to paint a room before the carpet has been installed. This means that there won’t be any risk of spilling pain on the carpet. Once the paint has dried, it can be difficult to remove it from the carpet. It’s better to avoid that situation all together.

Is a carpeted floor hygienic?

Dust and dirt easily settles on carpets, however, this means it stays contained and can be vacuumed away at once. Carpets are hygienic if you clean them regularly. Contrary to popular belief, carpets are a great choice for people with allergies too. A carpet makes it easier to control the flow of dust mites and airborne spores that aggravate allergies.

Are there other flooring materials which are better than a carpet?

Carpets are a great choice for living areas, bedrooms and offices. However, it’s up to the consumer in Brits to decide if they prefer carpets or another type of flooring material. The benefits of a carpet are keeping the room warm in colder weather, helping dust to settle and creating a cosy environment.
